The Braseltons

The Cirque show (Mystere at Treasure Island) tonight was awesome. That is always a given.

So far, we haven’t done THAT much while here. Zoe has been making everything really difficult. Tammy said that Zoe is making up for all of the times she was just an angel. Tammy has been fighting a bunch with her. I try to help but usually get in the way.

We haven’t even seen downtown yet. Our adventures have only led us about two miles up the street. We will probably see downtown tomorrow.

On the gaming front… Vegas is not what I remember about 18 years ago. I used to come frequently while growing up and knew this place like the back of my hand. Everything paid off at some point. The cocktail waitresses would shove drinks down your piehole so fast you would drown. Today that is not so. It is difficult to even sit there and play for a little while before your funds are depleated. I get so thirsty that I get up and pay for drinks at the bar because I can’t afford to sit at the machines/tables that long.

Sadly, I have been thinking the same thing the entire time here: I would be doing better on the riverboats in Louisana! I don’t like the atmosphere there. I don’t like the staff. I don’t like the patrons. I DO like that I can occasionally hit 4 Aces on a video poker machine and just play for a while. I do that regularly. I have not done it once since we have been here. The whole place just sucks money from you. Things sure have changed!

So, with poor Zoe always upset and the crap luck here so far, things can only GET BETTER!

Wish us luck!
