It's true what they say about the casinos

Vegas Update #5: Gambling

* I'm starting to write this entry at 3:30am Vegas time Wednesday morning.  I'm just getting in from the casino in our hotel.  I may not finish it before I pass out, but right now I'm riding a pretty cool high from free drinks and successful slot machine-ing.  I'm a little freaked out that the national morning news shows are on.

* Tonight was the first night I'd been fairly restless, and so I wanted to experience the casino at a time of day I hadn't seen it in.  I liked it a lot better this time.  Drinking and winning will do that to you.  Tonight (well the night I'm writing this anyway) I managed to triple my initial slot machine money.  It was pretty sweet and a total blast. Before I knew it, three hours had passed by.  Unreal.

* So far we've been extremely lucky in our gambling endeavors.  Basically we came to Vegas with some spending money in our pockets and a set amount in the bank that we'd use for the trip.  Well we've yet to even touch the money we saved up.  We've won little slot machine jackpots here and there, enough to keep doubling our money and pay for everything we've needed so far.  It's been unreal.
