Good morning Las Vegas!

I am off work today and I can smoke in my room OMG heaven.

I had so many plans today but realized that moving hotels in between the plans would be a nightmare so I decided to cancel Fontainebleu.  I was double booked there and Encore tonight.  My thinking was that I did not want to be without a hotel on Christmas if Fremont would not let me check in early.  But ultimately, I’d rather not check into any hotel tonight so….let’s see how this goes.

As mentioned,  I have plans tonight. It is 9 am and I already don’t want to do any of them. I just want to gamble and sleep.

Today is (hold on while I count on my fingers) day 13 of this trip, which makes it day 12 since I last went degenerate.  Hmm.

Crazy to think of how excited I used to get about 2 week trips. Now those are short for me.

Went to Jardin for breakfast. I get the same thing every time. Three eggs your way. Every time it is great.

I have $80 for Cleo. Walking to her, I see all the machines i want to play and can’t because small budget.  I tell her I want to play all the machines but I cannot unless she gives me money.

I played $40 on one machine, cashed out for $60. $40 on other for zero.  I put the $40 tito back into the first machine and HOLY FUCKING SHIT is what I screamed when i hit 9/9 for tbe first time in my life, on a bonus when its doubled and playing $2.

I had to yell for the attendant to get tipped, he vanished so fast. Never asked for my ID.

So $3900 after tip, I am rich.

I know I want to play but need to control myself.  But I do single line Double Double Bonus Ultimate X on quarters.

Then fuck it, Buffalo?

I came back to the room with $3800.  Not too shabby.  I put it in the tub for more luck.

I could not sleep so I got back up and went to Palms. I have $50 freeplay and $25 dining. I took a taxi instead of an Uber and it was up to $7 before we even got out of Encore.

My dinner was not good at all.  I got a sandwich and it tasted like the bread had been marinated in rancid oil and not heated up enough so it was soggy.

I lost my freeplay.  Actually let’s tell the truth.  I turned my $50 freeplay into $60 and then lost MY $60 cash.

I also won another watch.  Same as the one I got last week, only this one is a man’s watch.  No photo because lazy.

I went over to Rio intending to see Wow and Penn & Teller for free.  Checked my account and see I still have these shows showing for free even though I already redeemed them.

I barely made it through Wow.  It was an okay show.  But a family in front of me arrived late.  They were disruptive and I could immediately tell that they were late because they had collectively eaten every single piece of garlic on the planet and then as they were about to leave, noticed one last bulb of garlic and wrestled each other for it, causing them to all start sweating and all the garlic in the world that is inside their bodies is now pouring out their sweat glands.  It was awful.

The little kid of the group was an absolute piece of shit.  Kept standing up, jumping up and down, screaming, bare feet all over all the things.  God I hate him.

It was also warm in the theater which just made the garlic smell grow.

I did not stay for Penn & Teller because fuck people.

Back to Wynn where I went online shopping to buy all the tickets for the new shows at Soho Playhouse.

Then back out where a woman was bogarting MY machine.  I hate her.  I mean she does have every right to be there, but did she need to never leave?

I played next to her.

Then I went to play quarter single line Double Double Bonus Ultimate X.

That woman was still on MY machine so I went back to Encore and stopped at my nickel Ultimate X.  Fuck man.

I am completely exhausted and need bed now.   The only open slot to eat breakfast tomorrow is at 8:45 AM.  Kill me.

Tomorrow after I check out of Encore, I will be homeless for 3 hours.  This is the only time I am homeless the entire trip.  I hope I don’t go degenerate.

Good night.

OH the itinerary:
