Last night was the first night in vegas. it was a good way to start off the evening. hardman and i peaced out from pdx for our adventure. we got outside of LAS and approached the longest line for a cab i've ever seen. but snap, we were through in minutes, greeted by an older guy who told us michael jackson jokes all the way to our hostel. our hostel is in a somewhat sketch part of town, which is basically all of vegas. we're south of the strip, basically right in the middle of the strip and downtown. we took no part in the strip last night, which ended up being an awesome choice. but we arrived to the hostel greeted by chandler, and nice guy with a handlebar mustache who took us inside. the place looked like shit at first glance. and nay, it isnt the nicest, but the people made up for it. we started off the night by meeting a couple brits, gaz and chevron. we spent all night with them. but before we could hang out hardman and i got some drank at the local 7-11. four loko to start the night, please. while inside we met this chatty kathy named kate. she chatted and chatted with us and hung out at our hostel for a couple hours before she had to go to some "work meeting" at 10:30 PM. so as she disappeared like a phantom, we played some pong with the brits, introducing them to the american college pastime. halfway through the game we met one of the dudes that works here, tim, who took us out for a good time in downtown. we checked out the giiiiant lights show out there. incredible. under those light we went into one of the casinos. great success. hardman and i both won 30 bucks playing black in roulette.
we continued wandering and found a video arcade bar. tim asked us if we all wanted to go and we all responded with a lukewarm "ehhhhhh," but he didn't really pick up on this so he responds with a "yeeeeeah, lets do this" so we went. it was so cool. we got our videogame aaand our drank on there, tim treating us to it all. but that was the end of our fun times in downtown. from there we walked and walked, listening to tim's political banter about anarchy and such shit.
but then everybody was still wanting to drank so we went back to the 7-11. as everybody went inside i stayed outside, dranking my beer that tim had bought me. as i'm minding my own business this 40-something year old woman drives up in her white sedan, asking where she could find johnny place. i say "no i just moved here today." she says "oh, where are you from? " i say "seattle" she says "oh, well you're cute seattle boy" i say "thanks" she says "ya want my number" i say while laughing "no thank you." she then drove off and i proceeded to laugh by myself in the 7-11 parking lot. i then tell hardman what just happened and our helpful clerk Lucky kindly responds to me "man, that's when you need to listen to your little brother" . tim asked him if he had ever taken advantage of such offers, and he said "yeah," then told us of his sexual excursions. gross, but funny. after the 7-11 good times we walked back to the hostel cat and chatted, listened to much more of tim's banter and at that time i knew it was time to go to bed.
now it's time to buy a moped.
