I went this weekend, being much overcome by issues pertaining to the search of employment and, having three days off of work with which to tarry as I pleased, with my boyfriend to the illustrious casinos in proximity to Lake Tahoe.
Our way was beset with many delays; our straining climb to the glorious summit that doth overlook the more minutiae mountains and less ambitious peaks was plagued by a determined stretch of road labor and we found ourselves often halted, having to content our eager feasting eyes upon the glossy rear bumpers of many a SUV. Finally, without a little labor, we reached the summit and descended with the grace of gravity so often gifted to weary travelers, our tumulus emotions soothed by the lilting tones of the Beach Boys.
Upon arriving in our destination we embarked immediately (though a trifle delayed by a whimsical pause on the sandy beach, standing fully dressed betwixt persons in various states of disrobe) upon a tour of the various residences in order to find the one most suiting to travelers of our station and means. One residence in particular, which I shall not stoop to grace with a mention by name, though most shall know it by reputation and sheer size of facilities, was dismissed on the grounds of a prevailing odor so offensive to our sensibilities and yet so common to facilities employed in the business of gambling in states beyond our own.
Following a prodigious debate we elected to patronize a residence of middling size but exemplary cleanliness and agreeably situated in relation to the casinos. The room possessed a television and charmed me with the delicately folded towels prominently displayed; however, my boyfriend heartily lamented the softness of the bed as detrimental to the alignment of the spine and various other maladies of the back. He was appeased only by the presence of a spa, which we concluded, when used in conjuncture with overly forgiving bedding, would do a suitable job in counteracting, or at the very least minimizing, pain procured by sleeping.
At the casino we were an admirable success. Having indulged overmuch at the buffet, not surprisingly considering my own indisputable fondness for pizza and potatoes, we entered the casino with our funds depleted shamefully to the effect of 3 dollars between us. Despite our humble store of cash we triumphed both in games of skill and by placing ourselves strategically to result in the receipt of beverages free of charge, and saw ourselves richer by 35 dollars when the Beatles tribute band of much renown heralded the end of the evening by conceding to be photographed with the humble likes of myself.
For sooth, in my experience I have found vacationing to be the cure for all ills incurred in daily existence of the mundane kind.
