Strange attractor

In the midst of a post-win manic episode, we hatched plans for our annual hajj to Vegas. Thanks to A.'s comp'd room at the Lady Luck and Independence Air's direct flights out of Dulles, we managed two rooms and a car for five days and four nights at just under $370 per person. This way, I need fear neither prolonged layovers nor sharing a ( Read more... )

Wow, that rendition is way more built than Ian McKellan.

Yes, the bane of my existence since the release of the X-Men movies is that now when I say I have the hots for Magneto people think I am into aging queens.

I'm not commenting on any of this for fear it'll screw up your luck.

OH, dude! I'm so unbelivebly jealous of the Batman Animated Series cards and the Transformer cards!
I have the Peanuts ones, though.

I think my favorite is Death on Drugs, which I picked up while still living in Santa Cruz. Every one is different, you learn something new with every hand, and you can call bizarre wild cards (e.g. "any drug whose side effect is nervous accelerated speech").

Man, I'm jealous. I've been wanting to go to Vegas for years.

I get the itch every August. Second cheapest rates of the year (the cheapest being a particular weekend in February).

It was also the destination of my first vacation with D. and the place where I topped for the first time, so there are certain pleasant associations unrelated to gambling.

I wouldn't be going for the gambling.

My boyfriend has always wanted to go. And I've always wanted to take him. I have no interest in gambling. So I'll have to find some fun things to do.

And it's the first time you topped? Was it the last?

Gambling is important because it's the only way to get free drinks (assuming you consider an obligatory $1 tip to be "free").

And it's the first time you topped?

Yes, but you must consider that it was probably the fourth time I had had sex.

Was it the last?

Of course not. I think my boyfriend just required the kitschy romantic ambiance to finally give it up.
