Healthier, wealthier and wiser

So I got another good night sleep last night after taking half of one of my girlfriend's ambien. And today was a great day. I got up, made myself a full breakfast; eggs, turkey bacon, OJ, and cereal. Then I watched a couple of TV shows I had recorded, I recently got into that show "The Middleman" it's a funny show. Anything with masked wrestlers with Japanese names has to be interesting. So after catching up with the other shows, I went to work around noon.
I felt more alert and upon entering I was able to pull an underage girl out of the bar right off the bat. After that the day only got better. On my afternoon break I played a token I found on the ground and won $75 from it on one play of the slots. Then while talking with one of our bartenders I caught a falling bottle of expensive brandy, I forgot how much he said it was, but I could never bring myself to pay that much for a single drink of it, ever(though my earlier winnings may have gotten me half way there), but he promised me a small glass after my shift.
And to cap it off I caught a guy cheating at the end of the day at the blackjack table who would have managed to get off with about $15,000. It was a pretty basic scam, he had a rotating group of people who were positioned to see the dealer's hand when he looked at his face down card and would signal him accordingly. Of course we watch anyone who is earning more than a certain % of their buy-in more closely, but I intercepted the signals and caught the guy playing. I do hope the dealer doesn't get fired though for the incident.
As a thank you the security manager said he was going to try to get me a night's stay in one of the sister casinos up in Tahoe meals and a show. Oh, and when I left work, that brandy I was promised was a little slice of heaven. And I believe it was all because of a good night's sleep.
