I take it back! I take it back! The part where earplugs
were going to solve all my sleep problems? That was a classic case of premature
expostulation!

I got to bed around 12:30 long before Randy got back from a
his night of debauchery, and my sleeping pill was doing its thing for a good
three hours. At 3:30 AM I woke with a start to a hideous sound, like a
Sasquatch writhing in pain from a bullet wound. I looked over, and in the next
bed was a Sasquatch writhing in pain from a bullet wound. It was a sound not
from this earth. I couldn’t see how the paint was going to stay on the wall,
and I was already calculating our room damage bill.

Debbie has been married to this man, and presumably sleeping
with him for 35 years. This fact usurps all the miracles of science and man. It
makes Victoria Falls look like the drippy faucet in my kids’ bathroom.

Imagine, if you will, that in the bed beside you, not 24
inches away, all the air was being let out of a Zeppelin, while a goat was
being tortured with a branding iron. Now… go to sleep.

Yes, I had bright orange earplugs in my ears, and yes I held
a pillow firmly over my head (half in an attempt to muffle the sound and half
in an attempt to smother myself). I took another sleeping pill which had all
the effectiveness of throwing a tennis ball at a charging elephant.

So now you say “Rich, Why didn’t you just wake him up?” To
which I respond “HA!” you really think I didn’t try? I pushed. I prodded, I
threw various objects at him. It was like tossing pebbles at an artillery Tank,
only this was louder!

So here I am, once again with little sleep facing Day 2 of
the WSOP Seniors tournament. The good thing is I am writing this from the sunny
pool at the Wynn Hotel, drinking a caffeinated Americano.

And I just had Acai Breakfast
Sundae! It’s like a sorbet flavored with pineapple and banana with an acai
base. And I had it with fresh blueberries, and strawberries, and granola.
Phucking Phenomenal! They can call it what they want, I just had ice cream for
breakfast! Does life get better from here?
