She's sweet, but she's fucked up

...stays in Vegas

Cont'd.
3. Even though I initially had a little luck with the gambling (turning $10 into $20 is like water into wine- for me, it's that much of a miracle), my luck ended abruptly when my flip flop broke on our way to the strip (after our 5 hour nap to reinvigorate ourselves). I loved those flip flops, they'd been my favorite pair of shoes for the past 4 years. I actually could cry over them right now, but I won't. Be strong Reagan! Sometimes I need a little encouragement, even if it's from myself. So, I ended up wearing Guiseppe's Adidas slides the rest of the trip. Are those things supposed to be comfortable, with the little pokey things on the bottom? What's their purpose- I don't get it. Instead of buying a new pair of shoes, I suffered through the pain w/ a lot of complaining. A lot. But like hell I was going to buy new shoes. I only had $15, I wasn't wasting it on a pair of gaudy flip flops from a gift shop.
4. On Sunday, we ate lunch at a place in Hard Rock and afterwards decided to do some last minute gambling. After I lost my last $6 on a stupid poker machine, I decided to pulse out $20, just to play a little more. "I won't lose more that $10" I thought. I won't let that happen. So I went to the same machine I'd played the day before (where again I turned $10 into $20...damn, I'm good) and put in my $20. I hit a button and all of the sudden, I'd bet all of my money on one hand. Black Jack. And I lost. All of it. In two seconds. I almost cried. For those of you who know the truth, there was no "almost" about it. I'm still pissed.
5. When Alisa quickly packed a suitcase for the trip, she grabbed 6 pair of underwear for a one day trip. This is what a drunk person thinks about while packing. Amusing. She also luckily got deodarant (important) and some extra tops (very important seeing as how the one I was wearing reeked of cigarettes and general nastiness).
This is all I can remember about the trip right now. Probably all that's worth mentioning. And I don't feel like writing anymore. This was a waste of time, it doesn't sound very interesting in writing.

I forgot quite a few things. I'm in a funk.
