The sleep of the dead and a scrotum sucking toilet...

An advantage of driving all day with little sleep is the fact that,when you finally crash,you sleep like a baby.
Even though I was exhausted I thought that I would watch some tv and hope that there would be something entertaining to help me unwind.
Wound up watching the nature channel. No animal porn....just creatures hunting down other creatures and feasting on their innards. Kinda gross but I guess that it is the same as us going to McDonalds for a burger. The big diference of course is that the meat a lion may eat seems to be a bit fresher than ole Mac's.
Finally fell asleep around 1:00 and slept the sleep of the dead although the dead probably do not dream. I dremt of poker and...strangely enough...antelope burgers.
Woke up hungry and rested but,when I looked at the clock I could not believe that it was 11:02 AM. Yikes....that will be a chunk out of my day,but that is what vacationing is all about I guess:wasting time.

Went and had breakfast and was not super impressed. Hard bacon,good eggs and hash browns. Hash browns??? What is with Americans and the amount of food that they serve on their plates? No wonder many of them are fat.

Checked out a couple of antique malls but was not rewarded with anything of neatness.
Screw it....I am on a mission.

Stopped in at a casino in Corning...the Rolling Hills or some gay name like that. Just wanted to use the toilet, as casino johns are worth parking yer butt on most of the time.
All went well except that the toilet was one of those auto flush thingies and I think that this one was either broken or in overdrive as it seemed to flush every 30 seconds or so. Probably the result of some overweight trucker with a bowel plugging 3 coil steamer that threw off the meory bank of said toilet. My concern was, that it was so strong, that I thought that my scrotum was going to be sucked into the bowl every time it flushed. I am sure that some would find this pleasent but I was more concerned about my junk being ripped off so I did not thoroughly enjoy the experience.

Basically a forgettable day driving today. Rain in parts of Northern California but other than that it was clear sailing. I am going to try and make it to Palm Springs tomorrow night so that I can play me some poker at THE SPA casino.
After all...this is supposed to be a poker blog right?
