VEGAS? AGAIN?
Jansen and Tam picked me up and off we went to Vegas. After playing poker last night, I was surprised they actually came at a decent time. We tried to leave by 6am, but we ended up leaving about 7:15am.
The drive to Vegas was filled with great weather and no traffic. We got a blunt going and Jay and I started coughing our lungs out. Tam woke up when we were in session and asked for a hit. We had a smile on our face because we knew that the first thing that would happen when she hit it would be a coughing fit. Sure enough, that's exactly what happened and Jay and I had a good five minutes laughing our ass off.
We got to MGM for a 1pm $50 buy in no limit hold 'em tourney, but we wussed out because of the high dollar amount. So we decided to eat lunch instead and gamble a little. The minimum bets were kind of high so we took a break and went to Caesars to watch Tam's sister Tao play in the MBA tournament. Students from all over the country who are getting an MBA joined this tournament to socialize and maybe win some money. It was very organized and seemed to actually be a WSOP-type event. Tao was playing very tight and she ended up getting blinded down.
Then we went to the Cal in downtown Vegas to gamble. After a few hours, Tam was up from blackjack, Jansen was up from slots and I was up from playing craps.
We had dinner at the cafe and left to rest a little at Richie's. We got there and I made my self comfortable trying to take a nap. It didn't really work but I did get a little rest. Rich finally arrived with Randy (from the Bay) and his crew who Rich had dinner with. Rich got ready and we took off to Pure at Caesars Palace.
Tam's sister had given us passed to get in between 8-10pm, but we got there right at 10pm. There was an enormous line and it didn't look like there was any chance we would get in. Later, we found out that had we identified ourselves as MBA people, we would probably have gotten in. Regardless, we decided to go to plan B which was Taboo at the MGM.
Since Jay was up, the night was on him. The orange shields we had picked-up earlier were already starting to creep in. We had a drink at a little lounge near Taboo first since it was still early. Taboo is a strange little club because it's a round structure inside and in the middle of the MGM casino. But you can get easily lost once you're inside. It was dark, the house music was groovin' and we were rollin'. How much more can you ask for?
We spent most of the night walking around and sitting in different rooms. All of the tables had reservation signs on them, but the staff was cool about letting people sit until the guests arrived. The only interest story of the night was meeting some girls from Houston. They were white, probably wealthy and very beautiful. I got lucky by sitting down next to a half Valenzuelan/half white girl named Ariana Alvarez. She had a face that looked half ethnic, but she was definitely white. However, she had a booty like a Latina and she didn't mind me rubbing the small of her back that evening. Unfortunatley, she said she had a boyfriend for over 4 and 1/2 years. I wondered how I might feel if I were her boyfriend and knew that some stranger was rubbing the small of her back. I guess it all comes down to trust. Then I wondered, what the hell is her boyfriend waiting for? I suppose that when you're young and have your life ahead of you, some people just aren't ready to commit.
Anyway, as soon as I found out the girls I was with had boyfriends, I shook their hands and got the hell out of there. It's nice hanging out with beautiful women, but there's a point when it's a waste of time. I walked out and found Rich and his cuz Jason hanging out with another one of the three girls we had met at Taboo. She was tired of partying and wanted to gamble. I'm not sure what Rich and Jason were doing, I found them sitting there waiting for her. Tam and Jansen found us a little later and we all decided to just go back to Rich's.
I drove back and got lost (damn de Leon curse). Tam and Jansen wanted to continue to gamble so they left to go downtown. Rich and I stayed behind because we were done. I turned on the computer, put some house on, and dozed off to sleep. Vegas is just not as satisfying when you're not getting laid.
