    Well we’re back to the games laughing at me again. Between last night and tonight I am $900 down on slots and have yet to see even one bonus round, and tonight it’s at $1.20 or $2 per spin.

    When I lived in L.A. a really long time ago, I actually asked Tyra Banks out on a date.

    There was a long, awkward silence after I did that...and I don't remember her saying another word to me after it all.

    You gotta try out there, people. Don't be scared!

    I thought we would have been the perfect power couple.

    I was wrong.

    Here’s the famous person I asked out. She came to Mayo Clinic once when we were both teens. All that grunting…I would have been done in 12 seconds anyways at that age…

    Changed women's tennis forever.

    I also wonder what her career would have been if she wasn't literally stabbed in the back.

    I cannot begin to talk about how much I appreciated Monica Seles. And f’ing Gunter Parche took her career away from us.

    Done for the night. Every time we went back to a bar to search for someone, I lost $100. @lousyatcraps and I always throw a few hundos at HL slots, and at least we hit a $250 spin on $10 WoF to curtail the losses. We ended up down about $150 apiece.

    I’m down about $400 today but I’m completely satisfied with the play amount and the company tonight. A million times better than yesterday. T also had robes in his room so he loaned one out to Geotwink for morning lounging on the balcony.

    Haven’t checked my points yet but I know I have at least twice as many as yesterday.

    Tomorrow’s plan depend on the weather. Stay tuned.

    Still can’t beat mornings on the balcony. Weather is going to be poor today, so no pool time. I half-woke Geotwink up to inquire about going to Mt. Charleston this morning, and got the, “If you don’t let me sleep two more hours, you and your birthday promises are going over the railing.”
