Partying

CINDY: Times have changed haven’t they?

ABBY: Yes, of course, but which times are you referring to?

CINDY: Parties for one. Tickets to shows and events for a couple of others.

ABBY: Oh.

CINDY: Remember we used to go to the casino parties, especially New Years Eve parties at the casinos.

ABBY: Early on I really thought these were parties we should go to. I mean New Years Eve! Come on.

CINDY: Sometimes the casinos would even set us up with dates! Some of those dates were, shall I say it?

ABBY: Go ahead.

CINDY: Awful. Horrible. Boring. So boring. Look it’s fun to watch gamblers gambling at the casinos but some of these men were just too much. That’s how they got invited to these parties I guess. Big money. Long time at the games. Big losses. But seriously, there is more to life than just playing casino games.

ABBY: We were invited, I guess, for the same reasons. We were players certainly. But our worlds didn’t only revolve around the casinos. We both had professions but we spent a large amount of time in the houses of chance.

CINDY: The parties were okay, I guess, but the casino environment was just way too much during New Years. The table limits were huge. The lowest bets were – and this is way back in time remember – gigantic. Table minimums of 25 and 50 dollars and on up.

ABBY: Were there any guys you were matched with that were interesting?

CINDY: Some were less boring but they were all either just so self-centered or just so full of it.

ABBY: And it was so concentrated on sex too.

CINDY: Well, that wasn’t exactly mentioned but you could sense those nights the hunt was on. It was a hunting party.

ABBY: And we were the prey.

CINDY: Well, we don’t have to worry about that any more. We’re not prey any more.

ABBY: Thanks.

CINDY: Because we don’t go to those parties anymore. I didn’t mean no one would be interested in you anymore.

ABBY: Oh, sorry. I thought you meant we weren’t all that attractive anymore.

CINDY: Oh, please, you are the most attractive sister I have.

ABBY: Great. I also think I am the only one you have.

CINDY: Don’t get so technical.

ABBY: What were some of the best events that we went to?

CINDY: We went to a lot of fights. We saw Tyson eat Evander Holyfield’s ear.

ABBY: He didn’t exactly eat it. I don’t think he ate it.

CINDY: We were so far up in the arena that he could have eaten it. But you knew something bad had just happened. The crowd went nuts.

ABBY: You remembered we got out of the arena fast because it had the makings of a riot.

CINDY: I think it was a riot actually. They closed a bunch of casinos too as I remember.

ABBY: We saw some good fights too.

CINDY: We got some comps to wrestling too but I didn’t really like wrestling.

ABBY: Me neither.

CINDY: Remember when they tried to make Vegas a “family friendly” resort town? Oh, man, that was such a waste.

ABBY: That lasted a few years but the city gave it up.

CINDY: Vegas was always meant to be an adult town. Same with any real casino venue. Adults only!

ABBY: Right on.
