- woke up at noon, killed off the dehydration hangover with two mimosas made by suite-mates who are way more into college football than I am.
- brunch at Peppermill, surprised to arrive in one piece and not melted from the frickin heat.
- Peppermill is the most gaudy restaurant ever invented - every shade of neon pink, purple and blue is represented, and as if that wasn't enough most of the interior looks like a giant disco ball exploded its guts onto the walls, causing fake trees and plants to grow everywhere amongst multi-colored sugar dispensers. If you are the type that drops acid to watch Fantasia, this is probably your bag. Food = decent.
- talked to my daughter, her soccer team won their opening game 5-0. YAYUH.
- walked back to the room (Hilton Grand Vacation Resort, if you're keeping score at home), changed shirts, walked over to the Sahara to meet Pai Gow Poker-addicted suite-mates
- 4 hours later and $50 richer, out of Pai-Gow land and back to the room for another costume change
- got the Incredibly Expensive Car out of its holster and drove to the Wynn for the buffet, where I blew everything I won on dinner - excellent food, particularly the dessert trays.
- back to the room, put on equally pimp outfit to leave equally pimp suite. Ness keeps me from wearing sunglasses to prevent full rockstar supernova.
- walked to Treasure Island, watched horribly stupid show apparently involving over-gesticulating pirates and their hooker counterparts. Explosions good, fire good, show bad.
- skipped past the volcano at Mirage, didn't want to wait for it. Pissed at people on sidewalk at this point anyway.
- walked to Bellagio, watched pretty spraying water and was relaxed.
- took a break in Paris casino to get a drink at "Le Sports Bar" where Ness won $100 on video poker
- walked back to Circus Circus to play giant slot machine but was foiled by giant idiot in ugly shirt with bottomless supply of dollar coins and dopey looks. Seriously contemplated farting near him and running away, I had to anyway. On the way Ness had to use the bathroom approximately 6.0 x 1023 times.
- decided to return to Sahara to drown sorrows in Pai Gow, was able to obtain an additional $25 of the Sahara's money and be throroughly entertained by drunk co-players
- back to the room, the end.
