I had a pretty good day of it today in Las Vegas. I'm always feeling a bit physically beaten up the first day here and today was no exception.

Tired as I was, I slept 6 fitful hours only.
I've found that the secret to sticking to a daily gambling budget hinges on whether you have more than the daily budget on you in cash.
Today was my first full day as a scroungy cheap bastard, and I think I pulled it off fairly well.
My biggest planned coup was to claim a kettle or coffee maker from the lost and found. That busted. They get rid of stuff after 30 days. And, I asked the same person twice, which was kind of dumb. I may have to actually pay for one.
I planned to do a coupon run tomorrow after picking the car up - oopsies, it isn't booked until 3:00pm. Guess I will have to change my plans.
Only quad I've hit so far. |
Today would have been a total success if I had not hit a quad drought right off the tuber.
It will be at least Day 3 in Vegas before I hit one, because I ain't hit one yet, Beulah.
Did I mention it's fucking hot here? At least 3rd ring of hell hot, if not 4th.
Flusher out.

I'm in PHX where it was 116 today. Only way that's ok is if I'm in Vegas.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you break the quad draught in style tomorrow!
