Leaving Las Vegas

Well, I am back, and after a two day sleep-a-thon I feel somewhat alert enough to blog.
Vegas was decadent and fun.
They have added so many new hotels and casinos it was mind boggling. Still, nothing beats downtown for luck. I hit a $1000 jackpot at Binion's Horseshoe. That was nice.
My traveling companions were nice too, except I often felt like the kid sister trailing after the big kids, so I went off on my own a lot.
I came home to some sad news.
Given some time to think about us, my Canadian girlfriend Zed found she can't handle a long distance relationship after all. It's always been a bit of an issue for her, but I guess she thought long and hard about it and decided it was a huge issue, then decided to call it quits.
It's a bitch when an issue like distance overwhelms a sweet and nurturing relationship, but these things happen and I suppose this is a good time to chant the serenity prayer and be grateful for what I do have in my life.
