A So Cal Girl in the Desert

We went to the Harrah's Ak-Chin Indian Casino today for the first time. My best friend, brother-in-law, and his girlfriend are in town for the holiday, so we decided to grab the few hours of exclusively adult time we had while my stepson was in school and live it up. We sat at the bar and had Bloody Marys while we played video poker. I can't speak for anyone else, but I lost forty bucks pretty quickly. We gave up on that and headed over to Darlene the Dealer at the $10 black jack table, and I won my money back, exactly. So all I lost out on was the cocktail money. They don't buy you drinks like they do in Vegas, which threw my whole gambling plan off, because I usually just make sure I drink enough to cover my losses. Hmmm. I'll have to figure out how to make my losses work for me for next time.
