Comfortably Numb VII

We leaned shoulder to shoulder watching the gentleman make our omelettes and trying not to fall over. We stayed up too late and woke too early, what we lost in slots we made up for at the roulette table and I discovered it's not my favourite game. Casino's are impressive, like being in a world of their own, they have malls, restaurants, theatres, arcades and full spas...like a one stop shop and I kinda see why people choose to make this their escape when they can get away. I placed a bunch of purple grapes beside my omelette and headed back to the table while he ventured off to find a special kind of tea.

We contemplated dessert but agreed to grab it in Manhattan later in the afternoon. We were going to check out, shop for a bit then join the thousands of other New Yorker's heading back to the city. It's predictable but understandable and I wonder when New York became boring or intolerable to these people...is this how they master their mundane? I grabbed my backpack and jumped in the truck beside Jospeh...he's one of them, I can see the stress return when we turn onto the turnpike and head for the lights.
