Short Story7

You think your tired but your not thats what I was saying to Chad, Jake and Tom as they where trying to get some sleep after a big night on Vegas strip with me shaking glass filled only with ice surely this will annoy them enough. As for myself having not slept I kept repeating as it was like a mantra “you think your tired but your not” and I know it dosen’t make any sense but it kept me going and it made the boys laugh enough to know that they were going to be getting out of bed whether they liked it or not so my temporary delirium was paying off. The boy’s were up and we were ready for another big night starting at 11am. There is two things I learnt about Vegas in my short stay one is that no matter what time of the day it is, it’s always the best time to start doing whatever you want to do and believe me you can just about do anything and the other is you never know what is going to happen, so how hard can you resist such a place that offers constant entertainment 24hrs of the day. Its hard trust me sometimes you just have to know when enough is enough and thats the hard part but young guy’s like ourselves have more then enough energy to stay awake for 48hrs drinking vodka cranberrys and then washing it down with a bud light, also there nothing better then sipping a icy cold beer at 6am feeding the 1c slot machines hoping for a big win and hope is exactly what Las Vegas is built on . Everyone is hoping they are going to win big, get famous, meet famous people and I also believe sometimes you do and thats why the place is so intriguing. Its a playground for adults but don’t be fooled this playground dosent have any soft padding to land after you come blitzing down the slippery dip it will spit you out like a piece of chewy with no flavour left in it and who want’s to chew chewing gum with no flavour and who wants to know you in a town built around money if you have no money and call me sick but I find this so bloody funny as one minute your ripping, everyone’s happy around you the next you have no money to place bets and your getting kicked off the table, bloody harsh but bloody funny this place does not care who you are they just want your money and most of the time they get it so who is to blame and I think I have found a quote that sums up vegas really well. NEVER GIVE A SUCKER AN EVEN BREAK
