Got to see the strip today, it was awesome. Paris and New York New York were my favorites because they looked like little cities inside-it was pretty much like Disneyland for drunken adults. Ironically, the only homeless we saw in the whole city was inside of New York New York. He approached us and asked for change while we were eating at a pizza place on fake 5th avenue. For a brief moment I wondered if the hotel hired him for authenticity.
I be broke so I only played the penny slots, but I won $75! Chris put his foot down and wouldn’t let me keep playing; he said I should stop while I was ahead. Which makes sense, but he had to drag me out of there kicking and screaming. Turns out I have an addictive personality-who knew?!
It was good that we left. Besides the fact that I probably would’ve lost all my winnings and more at the Marilyn Monroe slot machines, the constant haze of tobacco was aggravating my sinuses. My body picked a really shitty time to get infected. After spending seven hours inhaling tons of smoke (both first and secondhand) and guzzling free cocktails on an empty stomach, I was pretty out of t. The blinking lights were threatening to give me an epileptic episode and it was time to go home. So ended my Vegas experience. I was too sick to go out and party tonight, even though we got comp tickets to Coyote Ugly and I really wanted to go. As Chris says I have an innate need to party, so I was pretty bummed we couldn’t live it up. I even tried to tempt him by offering to hit up a strip club, but thank God he’s the adult in the relationship. :)
Oh well, we gotta hit the road early tomorrow anyway. We’ll be driving through Arizona and into uncharted territory-New Mexico. I keep saying we have to take a left at Albuquerque, Chris just looks at me like I’m crazy and says that will lead us up north. Ha!
