Good last morning Las Vegas! Today is day 18 and it is also my last day of this trip. This trip has been so unusual for me. I wasn’t supposed to be here. I didn’t LOVE being here. I hated working from here. My time not working was sort of a let down, specifically not having a marshmallow bed at Vdara. I only had a Bellagio fountain view one time. I am kind of ready to go home for the first time in my life. The only dread I feel about going home is having to unpack all the stuff in my apartment I packed for the kitchen renovation.
As soon as I wake up, the texts start from JetBlue. Flight delay. Flight not delayed. Flight delayed again! Whoops, no it isn’t. Yes it is. This is getting annoying. When I originally booked my flights, I then was myself and rebooked a million times. I settled on flying home on January 1 in the afternoon but realized that this was a terrible idea to get home late and start January 2 working in my apartment, with the bulk of the apartment packed in boxes that are filling the apartment. So I tried to change it back to fly home on the 30th and now prices are skyhigh. But there is a flight with a layover in Boston – Mint seat for $709. Yes please. So now I am on that flight, with the nonstop delay texts.
I tried to change the flight to make it stop but they tried to charge me. So no.
I got dressed and went to the buffet at Cosmopolitan. I am still fucking thirsty from Wynn other other day.
After, I sit down to play Ultimate X. Is this my last time playing? It might be? Some dude was playing the one next to MY machine but he is also playing on my machine. I didn’t realize this until I came around the corner to ask if he was playing MY machine and saw that not only is he, he just hit a dealt full house on ten play quarters. He cashes out and lets me have it. I asked him if he wanted his multipliers and he did not because it is too expensive to play one hand. He also told me he left multipliers on other games on this machine if I want to find them. So now I have no choice but to bet $25 to get his multipliers, which sucks because these machines will only let you play max bet. You cannot bet just 5 coins a hand to get the multipiers. Each bet is $25. And next thing you know, I am playing ten play quarters no no no no NO you cannot even afford this on nickels stop it.
