Man, this countdown is killing me. Sure, its just a few days, but you know the last few days take the longest. So now, I am reverting to six years old, and heres my list: I wanna drop a $20 into WOF machine and listen to beautiful melody. I wanna get up early, walk down the strip, and just take in the morning sunshine. I wanna sit at a cash game with nuthin' but T2V'ers I wanna pay Larry his $11 back, and cover the interest with a shot of SoCo. I wanna eat somewhere that doesn't serve happy meals. I wanna be a witness at a spur of the moment wedding. I wanna plant the 'Buffoon Nation' flag at the IP. I wanna see the liquor store receipt for Angy's party. I wanna get a picture while everybody is still in the poker tourney. I wanna play nonstop tourneys at Paris. I wanna contribute to somebodies derailment. I wanna have the chance to hear LVT's poker smack, while not being the subject of it. I wanna be sure to get a shrimp cocktail at GG. I wanna get an IP limo ride back to the airport. I wanna scream 'winner winner chicken dinner' with really good cause. I wanna play Caribbean Stud, if a table can be found. I wanna get really drunk playing Pai Gow. I wanna see DonD's Jennifer having a blast. I wanna come home and require a vacation to recover.
I want to enjoy the company of, and share a toast with whoever happens to be standing next to me at any given moment.
I'm secure enough in my manhood to pull off that whole "wearing a pink shirt" thing... Not everyone can. Besides, chicks dig the pink shirt. Mikey
I wanna ... fast forward the next 48 hours ... make time stand still for the seven days following that ... have my biggest worry next week be thinking about how I'm gonna pay taxes on all those W2-G's ... chop the 11pm tourney at Sahara three ways between me, Sticky, and Dougie. Ok, maybe just two ways... ... actually cash a ticket at the sports book ... play poker for 2 hours at Binions and get breakfast paid for early Thursday morning ... have one of those epic dice rolls where the GDP of Buffoon Nation gets increased by six figures. ... see Dougie do four quick shots of Patron and then drop him off at the Ramrod without his wallet or money-clip. ... sit at the bar at IP and have all the strangers sitting around me believe that Angy is propositioning me, again. ... win so much at the Rio that Harrahs stock gets downgraded next quarter. ... try the veal ... see if we can't make at least one Strip property have to make an emergency call to the liquor store to send more Captain Morgan ... see something happen where both Eric's and Sin's professional advice is needed. ... smoke an entire box of cigars in less than 7 days ... win enough at the poker table to buy Dougie a midget hooker. With his own money. ... hear the story about how Angy got a lifetime ban from the Foundation Room ... earn $20 from Terry by doing something slightly humiliating, yet wildly entertaining, in public Mikey
