    My Trip Report

    Been a while since I did this live, so I thought I'd get back in the saddle.

    Mrs. Flusher came out Wednesday and had a pretty easy trip. I came out Friday and it was the trip from hell. Holy shit.

    With one thing and another, 20 hours door to door. That's the worst in 53 tries, if you don't count the time we overnighted in Chicago.

    I have a new phrase in my airline vocabulary - Fuck U Nited.

    Mrs. Flusher has been having a great time, did maybe $60K coin in at the Cal before I got there. By end of Friday she was up $1500 on the trip.

    My 30 minutes of play last night was -$500.

    Here's the trip report page, c'mon along for the ride!

    Head over to Rio and give them $50k in a day on their $ 8/5 BP and see what offers you get...

    Loving it already. Almost makes me feel guilty when back in December my 3 hour flight out of Austin turned into 7 1/2 hours when we couldn't land in Las Vegas due to zero visibility from the fog. Ended up flying over to "Ontario, California" to refuel and wait out the fog. -- who knew there was an Ontario, California? -- I got kind of kranky when I was trying to get to the bathroom at the front of the plane. (at first they refused to let us off the plane) and I really had to go. FAA regulations say you cannot congregate at the front bathroom -- in the meantime at least 3 people cut me off from entering the bathroom when it was my turn. I hate those crappy little bathrooms - no way does anyone make it to the mile high club in a Southwest bathroom. As it is you practically have to be a contortionist to fit in it by yourself. You probably had a bathroom to yourself in first class. Southwest has only one class -- every passenger for him/herself. And screw the woman behind you doubled over with her legs crossed.

    With the title I was a little scared that there may be some newd photos from your senior Flushergirls. Hope you hit plenty of Royals and 4OAK.

    Ouch! 20 hours to Vegas is tough, but you made it. Good luck recovering.

    Heading to the airport myself now. I hope my flight is much less eventful than yours, Flusher!

    I'll be the old broad sitting at the Mikes' bar in 4 Queens drinking Pale Ale & chasing those progressives :thumbsup:

    Love your reports - long time reader - first time commenting. I actually read portions out loud to my husband . Our trip last week included video poker more than ever - didn't make anything but enjoyed the ride.

    Today's mission - play $10K each of coin in on those dollar Jacks machines at the Four Queens. I have $300 free play to do it, and the Quad Queen has $200. Yes these are the machines that kicked her ass so badly last trip...

    Dude, your story telling ability is crazy. My DW must think I am losing my marbles with the giggling that is emanating from my home office (where I should actually be working) while reading your trip report so far. Looking forward to the comeback on day 2 and continued good fortune for QQ.
