I am awake at 9:00 at the Bellagio hotel with my beautiful fountain view.   I don’t want to get out of bed because it is too comfortable.  I do have to get out of bed because nicotine fit.

On the way to breakfast, I lost $40 in Buffalo.  I hate that.  Not just because I lost, but because I have been having such a great run that I would hate to spend my last few days losing all my winnings.  Which would not be possible if I would stick to my budget.  But degenerate.

Breakfast was at Sadelle’s.  I confess, I don’t like this place.  I ate here back in December and my food smelled weird.  But I am going to try again because (a) I have dining credit with my offer and (b) people LOVE this place so maybe it was just a one off.

I place my order, the server says something to me that I don’t quite get and do that thing I do when I don’t understand people and just smile and nod.   As he is walking away, I realized he had asked me if I want a side of hash browns, which I didn’t.  But since I said yes…and that put me over my dining credit.

I get my coffee, but no spoon.  It took quite awhile to flag down my server for one.   The food was okay, but I don’t seem to have taken a photo.

I took some photos of the conservatory without actually entering it.  There is a long line to do so and I didn’t want to wait on it.

I got back to the room at 10:24 and called for a late check out and was given 1:00.  Down to gamble!

I played Cleopatra Keno.   They moved the machines so they are in a circle and I tried all of them trying to find MY machine that does the fanfare when you hit a bonus.  None of them were my machine.  I lost $100 trying!

I went back to the room to pack and called down to the Bell Desk for them to come get my bag and store it for me.

I played some more on my way out of Bellagio.  I lost $120 on Buffalo, yikes.  And another $40 on Cleopatra Keno.  YIIIIIIIIIIKES.  But Ultimate X video poker was nice to me.

I walked to Aria by way of Vdara to use a MyKonami free play.   The Vdara Starbucks is small, there’s no seats.  Even if they were, they would be closed for Covid.  But some bimbo bought a yogurt and decided to eat it from the counter right next to the cash register.  Obviously, sans mask because eating.  Honestly, this probably would have annoyed me even if there wasn’t a pandemic, you are literally eating inches away from the coffee machines.  GO AWAY.   I told her to move and she did.

At Cosmopolitan, I put a $100 bill into an Ultimate X video poker machine and played for hourssssssssssss.  I doubled twice but kept going without cashing out.  Finally I got borderline bored of this and cashed out with my initial stake.
I walked back to Bellagio to get my stuff.  The fountain show went off while I was walking with “Luck Be A Lady Tonight.”

From here I got my bags and went downstairs to get an Uber.   As I put in my request, a driver comes in driving like a fucking maniac and screeeching the brakes, I hoped I did not get him.  But guess what?  I got him.

I sit down in the car and immediately realize I am sitting in something soaking wet.  I tell the driver and he apologizes profusely.  But it is too late as my ass is already wet.   I decide my best bet of action is just to fucking continue so my wet pants don’t make the next Uber wet + fuck this fucking fuck you.  I mean, I am already sitting in possibly pee.  What’s the difference if it is 2 seconds or 10 minutes.

We get to California and I give him the finger as he is driving off.

I check in and go to my room.  Open the door.  And see this.
Sooooooooo I have to go back downstairs, still in my possibly pee pants and get a new room.

Finally back up and in a clean (?) room that has these shutters and I found a filthy mask hanging from the ironing board.  The straps were black, as if Rudy Giuliani had been wearing it during a press conference.
Boyd clean my pee soaked ass.

The rest of the room:

Garage Mahal view:
I take a shower and throw my pants out without even trying to determine what I sat in.  Now I have more room to bring home cheap cigarettes.

Out where I play dollar Double Double Bonus video poker, which is outside my budget limitations but fuck it, Karma owes me something for today.  Karma unfortunately does not agree.

I eat dinner at California’s Market Street Cafe, using dining credit that came with my offer.   I had prime rib, it was fantastic.

I went over to Circa and got an $8 iced coffee, which is ridiculous except I have dining credit I won’t be using so fuck it.

I went back and forth between Cleopatra Keno and video poker and won more on Cleopatra Keno, but only turning a couple of $20 bills into $40.

Next up is Binions where I went full degenerate.  The kind where you look back and ask why the fuck did I even have that much money on me to begin with?!!?  I lost everything in every machine.  $400.  My entire day’s budget, which again – WHY DO I HAVE THAT MUCH ON ME.

As I am playing, some guy tries to sell me a can of soda.  No thank you. “It is cold.”  So am I buddy, go away.

Back to California where I decide to lost some more money because I for some reason still have more money on me (WHY) and then proceed to do just that.  I lost $20 in Buffalo and $140 in video poker.

I am in my room at 11:00.
