BACK TO WORK

YESTERDAY WAS OUR FIRST DAY BACK TO WORK, AS DEALERS, IN THE CASINO. THIS MAKES OUR 15TH WINTER AT THE SAME LAUGHLIN CASINO. OF COURSE IT WAS GOOD TO SEE OLD FRIENDS AND MEET NEW DEALERS HIRED OVER THE SUMMER. IT ONLY TAKES ONE DAY TO HEAR THE STORIES OF SUMMER AND THEN IT’S LIKE WE NEVER LEFT. THE BEST STORY WAS A COUPLE OF DEALERS THAT GOT INTO A FIST FIGHT, BOTH WERE FIRED.

WE HAVE A COUNTER ON OUR HOME PAGE THAT COMES UP WHEN WE BOOT UP THE COMPUTER AND IT WAS COUNTING THE DAYS SINCE WE WORKED LAST, 189 DAYS. THE COUNTER WAS RESET TO COUNT DOWN THE DAYS UNTIL WE QUIT WORK FOR NEXT SUMMER, 173 DAYS. THAT’S 25 WEEKS UNTIL SUMMER !!!

I GOT AN E-MAIL FROM UNCLE HANS YESTERDAY CONFIRMING OUR RESERVATIONS AT HIS CONDOS ON SOUTH PADRE ISLAND. NEXT YEAR HE HAS BLOCKED OUT THE WHOLE MONTH OF OCTOBER FOR BOTH CONDOS. WHAT A GREAT WAY TO WIND DOWN THE SUMMER ON ‘DA BEACH, THANKS UNCLE HANS !!!

TOMORROW IT’S HALF WAY TO VEGAS (SEARCHLIGHT, NV) TO MEET PAULIE FOR BREAKFAST AND RE-TELL OUR STORIES OF SUMMER AND GET CAUGHT UP WITH PAUL AND HIS NEW JOB.
