Day 2b
*My play at Binion's got me not only some free psychedelic stuff (see Day 2 thread), but also $56 bucks in comps that I quickly dumped at their very surprising steakhouse. That was my first proper Vegas meal and I heartily recommend the place to anyone. Would gladly entertain clients there. That filet mignon was unbelievable - not really meat, more like heavenly velvety goodness massaging the inside of your mouth. Seriously.
*Tipping is indeed your friend. $5 to the valet parking guy is a sure way to be remembered, which allowed me to skip the very long line yesterday when I checked out at the last minute (something that, apparently, everyone does). And cocktail waitresses will buzz around you all night and refill your drink without you asking for it if you tip $2 a drink. Judging by their reaction, most people tip a buck or less.
*Was hit on by a chunky girl at the top of the Stratosphere, who was there with her hot cousin. I'm too stupid to make it obvious I'm after the cousin. Chunky girl keeps saying how she's never done touristy stuff like this before even though she lives in Vegas. I pretend to see something I really need to photograph and I lose them on the observation deck.
*Still at Strat tower - I'm freaked out by the sight of that needle that suddenly throws people down on it. Thought it was a fixed part of the structure until I was aiming at it with my camera. Bread, bash boys, we so need to hit that ride after getting intoxicated.
What are you smiling about?!? You're about to DIE.
I need new shoes.
