no sleep for the wanked.......

so yeah, no sleeping. no sleeping would be a good thing, if there weren't responsibilities. as far as i can tell, responsibilities are starting to blow. the vegas trip was actually kind of a disappointment. i mean, it was fun and all, but i don't think it was worth all the money we spent. it would have been really fun if more people could have come. but, they didn't. basically what it did is get me used to not working. i mean, i was bored when i was there, just like i am bored around here. only there, i didn't have to go to work. so now going to work is going to be foreign and painful. this sucks.

so yeah, vegas, what to say about vegas. do i feel bad that i went? no, not really. would i could go back in time and rethink my decision, i definitely would have said no though. i was unsure about whether i wanted to go before i went. now i realize why. things went down pretty much exactly how i expected them too, which is not necessarily a good thing, given this uneasyness. things looked up, for about 12 hours, when i was actually winning money. after that, things fell right into place as i expected them too. i lost all the money back, and then some. i went to a club, and couldn't really enjoy myself and get drunk because bryan wasn't having a good time at all, which was kind of understandable. so we went from this place with overpriced drinks, and ended up spending a shitload at a stripclub. the sad part is, the stripclub was the highlight of the trip, and it wasn't even that good of a stripclub.

ok, its not like i didn't have a good time. i did. but i don't think i got my moneys worth. this was vegas. land of freedom and sin. it lived up to none of its stereotypes. i didn't feel carefree and worryless, like you always hear. i was constantly aware of how much money i was spending, and how much money i had spent already. i wasn't drunk all the time. hell, i probably would have drank more if i was at home. there were plenty of dull moments. it seemed like we were constantly waiting for something to do, anything to happen. rarely did anything happen.

physically, i was impressed with the place. i saw a place with so much potential. i would really like to go back again, in different company. i'm not saying i don't want to go with bryan, i am saying i want to go with more people than just bryan. it would be cool to get a group of people together, get ripped and bomb around. with only two people, you kind of have to be doing something to be entertained. with a group of people, you can entertain yourself. for a group of people, especially a group of people like the ones i would most likely end up in vegas with, this city would be a veritable playground. everything is on such a huge scale. it was glorious. it was a tribute to all the gluttony, greed, and lust we all hold in such high regard. i saw a town i will really enjoy at some point in the future :)

so yeah, the vegas trip was nothing to really be jealous about. i was really happy about the fact that i wasn't working. i mean, if anything it was a great trip because i didn't have to go to work.
