2004-09-16 | RACE FOR THE PRIZE
Yes yes y'all, and ya don't stop. I'm living like a rock star right now. I'm staying at a 4 star resort (actually 4 diamonds, 3 stars, but anyway, it use to be 4 stars) right now, which just so happens to be the one I work at. I won a contest for selling the most wine, and my prize for winning was dinner for 4 at a restaurant on property, which I utelized last week, and a one night stay at the hotel, which we're using until tomorrow. It's only a one night stay, but it's just the pick me up I needed. Better tv selection than any other hotel I've ever stayed in, and a bed that feels just like heaven. Take that, Robert Smith. The pillows are fluffier than Liberace's toilet seat cover. You could be jacked up on caffeine, or like cocaine, and still fall asleep instantly when your head hits those lovely sleep donuts, which you scumbuckets in the real world would call the ordinary house pillow. There's also a giant magnifying-like mirror for shaving, eyebrow plucking, or self-loathing in the baff room, and for dinner we got free room service, since that's the department I work in. We had Shrimp Cocktail for the appetizer, we both had Penne pasta w/shrimp & crab for the entree, and I had a phyllo wrapped chocolate brownie, and Stephanie had a Chocolate Truffle cake for desert. My boss also gave me the oppurtunity to raid the mini-bar free of charge if I wanted to, but I'm not much of a drinker, so I think I may have stolen a coke or two and that's about it. But the thing that makes it all worth while...one of the things that makes me want to be rich as soon as possible...the most beautiful thing in the room...is there's a television IN THE BATHROOM!!!!!!!!!! Holy crap that is delicious. What's really cool about having a tv in the restroom is that it makes even the crappiest show (no pun intended, jackass) as watchable as your favorite shows, and not just because you're a craptive, I mean captive audience. It's just the brand new luxury of it all. Like when you get the house all to yourself when you're a kid, or when your parents upgrade from basic cable to digital cable supreme. It's just the initial idea of watching tv in a comfortable place where you've never watched it before, that makes anything on the screen worth watching. Tomorrow we check out, and I have the rest of Friday off after that, to sleep in my inferior mattress, and wish I was back staying at the hotel, and putting together another master plan on how I can get back to a hotel room this nice as soon as possible. Maybe I'll win another prize, but hopefully it'll be some kind of music or writing award, and not a reward for working a regular 9 to 5 job at a resort catered to people who can't relate to people who work regular 9 to 5 jobs. Whatevah's. All that matters is that I'm having a great time right now. I am happy. Sigh of relief. For now. Peace.
