Snowy Night, Lake Day
100% greatness, zero poker content."What'd you do today?"
"Well, I woke up at eight PM, played video games, had dinner, went to wal-mart with Jared and Danny to do some Christmas/house shopping, and when we went outside we saw that it was snowing. Hard."
"Wow. Sounds like an eventful day. Snow in Las Vegas?"
"Yeah. I haven't even gotten started yet. We drove home, had a snowball fight, Danny made yellow snow, Xena ate it, Jared fished off the bow of the boat parked in the street and then drew his name in the snow on the same street, we laughed lots about it snowing, drank some beer, played high stakes monopoly involving antes for free parking and airsoft shots to the chest to accompany going to jail, and finally finished the game at 6am. I chopped the pot with Gil to avoid getting shot with the airsoft gun... but he awarded me the title."
"So, then you went to sleep?"
"Hell no! By that time Jen was over and we went to breakfast. When we were on our way to IHOP, we caught our first glimpse of the surrounding foothills and decided that after breakfast we were heading to the lake."
"Wait. The lake? Wasn't it freezing? Snow on the ground?"
"Yeah. There was snow. But nah... not cold at all.
"So we hung out at the lake for a while, drank a few more beers, played a little bocce ball, and made it back to the launch ramp by noon."
"Then what?"
"Then I finished Christmas shopping. Earliest I've finished in years. Before the 20th! Now I'm home, writing the greatest blog ever, watching America's funniest home videos, and trying to stay awake as long as possible to get back on a normal schedule... Lara comes to town tomorrow!"
"Wow. So that's what poker players do when they're on vacation. Just another reason to not have a real job!"
"I completely agree. I still can't believe that it snowed in Vegas. Too bad it didn't snow on the strip... that would have been way too awesome.
"Peace and good luck!"
