It is cramped in there being that me, Michelle, my mom, lil sister, lil brother and bro's dad was there in a car that fits 4. We eventually arrive and see the glowing red city. We're excited because all the casions and stuff. He takes us to his place and we end up watching DVD's the first night. That was lame as hell being that I was really ready to play some slots. I play him in some checkers too and he was really taking it TOO serious. I mean, it was checkers, no money on the line. He was all getting loud over checkers! So I eventually go and me and Michelle are going to sleep in his room. *the rest in his living room* Me and Michelle just talk. We did a lot of talking. We haven't really got down in talking in a while. It was nice. I missed that side of her. Talked about death. Talked about our past. Talked about inequalities in society and just stupid stuff. The way our relationship was suppose to be.
So we wake up and take showers. My lil brother takes all the hot water and me and Michelle freeze in the water. So we're all amped up. This is it, time to have some fun. Yeah right!
Well it starts well in that we stop at a 7-11 store and buy a bunch of hotdogs and slurpies. Eat on the car and that was cool. So he's taking us up this mountain nearby. There is this nice view of the city. Plus, it was we're pioneers left behind things like stonemade ovens and steps. We hop in the car expecting to go somewhere fun. So he takes us farther up the mountain and we're just keep driving. We see a bunch of signs about visting the famous "suicide table". Hmm, we wonder, are we going to see that. NO! So after many barren mountains, we come apon Virginia City. Some old mining town. It really looks old-fashioned and we're curious to walk around. So we park and it looks like we're gonna walk around.
We see some guy we a black leopard. People are taking pictures and stuff. $10 to take a pic with it. My lil brother's dad pays for a pic with us petting the leopard. They actually have spots up close. My lil brother has always liked leopards so that was nice for him. But then we leave without visiting any buildings or anything, which was lame.
We're driving around some more and its really boring. I'm talking hours here. So he takes us near the "bunny" ranch. Its a place where prositution is free. Yeah, Nevada is a lil different than the other states. We see some guys walking by and that's it. He talks about how he went there and some are pretty and that he wants to take my lil brother there when he's 15. Besides that, its more driving.
We continue just to drive. He literally takes us on this street that circles the whole city. He pointed out a university. Besides that, there is nothing. We end up at a blockbuster and at this point there is frustration. We all wanted to play some slots and this guy is wasting our time. So my lil sister is making a big fuss with my mom. He gets the hint eventually and we arrive at Circus Circus *casino* and we're happy.
My lil sister takes pics and its time for "fun". The moment we all waited for. So I get some money that my lil brother's dad owed me for the trip and go to the Silver Legacy after losing to some games in Circus Circus. We start out really lost. Not sure where to go for the quarter slots. We find them and the ones we initially went to weren't intially easy to understand if you won or lost. So we go to these other slots and start winning. We played small money, quarters and dollars. After that, it was time for the casinos to profit from us. We went to the Roulette table and lost $10 fast. From there, we went back to slots and lost money there.
It wasn't as fun as it would seem. Plus I got carded so many times that me and Michelle got angry. We got carded atleast 10 times in a span of an hour. Yeah I get it, I don't look 21. We try to play some blackjack and the lady was totally rude. After 2 hands, we left.
Having lost $18 dollars, we were ready to leave. Despite having about $100 with us, me and Michelle are too fiscally conservative to spend much. My family had better luck and had won some fuzzy dice and these nice glowing fans.
So after that, we thought we we're going to leave. It was Monday and had to be home Tuesday. We go to the Greyhound and there is a big fuss there. Lil bro's dad wanted us to leave in the morning, and we we're supposed to leave at night. There was a $50 exchange fee for that. And he gave us money for that and later found the people didn't charge us that and I pocketed it.
We go back to his house and barbeque. It was pretty good. Though I heard from my sis that my lil bro's dad had threatened my mom. He said, "If you don't move to Reno soon, I'm going to take him through custody". Not only that, but he wants to take him to Nicaragua in January. *that's where he's from* So there was a purpose for us being up there. We go in our to sleep basically. Though me and Michelle talked a lil more.
The moring time was bizarre. We were supposed to be dropped off at the Greyhound at 5:45AM. He wakes up and takes off. We're puzzled because he doesn't mention where he's going. We had a bus to catch at 7:45AM so we wait a bit. He comes back for about 1 minute and runs back out the house. We are really confused. We get our stuff ready to leave and he comes back in his regular car. He picks something up and speeds off again. We're left to figure out how to get to the Greyhound station from his place.
With all our stuff, we're walking towards the casinos. The station is suppose to be there somewhere. Its kinda cold and we're not sure where to go. Plus, we don't know if we'll make it in time. We're all walking and asking people where to go. We're homesick and want to go home. Me and my lil sis start to sing that OC song, California. And that one song, "I'm going going back back to Cali Cali". So finally we arrive and find out the I could keep that $50. That was nice. We arrive home after hopping a local bus after the Greyhound. I'm exhausted. Me and Michelle's ears hurt BADLY. From about 6000 feet elevation to about 20. In fact, as I write, my ears are still not perfectly normal. I want to sleep but Michelle wants something else. So we end up "cuddling" and soon she has to go to class. That was that.
If you made it this far, pat yourself on the back, only if you didn't skip lines. I'm still tired a lil. Michelle will be back soon. No more Reno with him again. He's too controlling. We didn't get to decide anything and his personality was ugh. I mean, he brags about how he has 5 gfs and got $180 stripping. He got one pregnant and says he don't give a shit about it. So he's a questionable character.
That's all for now. I got some catching up to do. Take care you crazy people, you.

I did notice one particular thing you mentioned in that long tale. Ahem. Why are you and Michelle talking about how your relationship should be instead of working on how it can be? Seems like you're both still hanging with each other, so something is working. Why worry about what isn't? Work towards what will be.
