I arrived in Vegas at the McCormack airport to find slot machines in the airport. It was my first time in the only state that had legalized prostitution, though ironically, not in Las Vegas county - apparently they had enough sin without the oldest profession in the world doing business on the strip.

It was the Wednesday night before the Thanksgiving holiday. I didn’t have to work the following day and wouldn’t have to be at my parents’ house until the late afternoon, so of course I was at the bar.

I took the day off of work - something I haven’t been able to do in a very long time. And what am I doing on my day off? Well, Coffee and Crosswords, of course - at my favorite coffee shop, Spyhouse.

Thursday brought an end to an insane week. Insanity seems to surround me, but that’s what keeps me going I guess - trying to manage it all. Sometimes the challenge is fun, and sometimes it’s not. I was happy the week was over.
From work, I headed over to Dinkytown for [...]
Jim and I decided to head down to the Saloon last night. There were going to be a bunch of sober people out and nobody had to work today.
