I'm in an uncharacteristically good mood tonight because we have FINALLY had a successful night of work in Sioux Falls. Tonight was the Sioux Falls Jazzfest and it is one of the biggest events of the year, they say. We sampled as people were exiting the festival and could not have been more excited at the amount of traffic walking by but equally disappointed in the constant stream of jokes that we were tossing straight over these people's heads. We were throwing jokes out there and they were sending them right back. It's not like we were making South Park jokes to elderly women and getting shut down...these were teenagers and grade A humor. Kina even told one kid, "once it hits your lips, it's so good" and NOTHING. so disappointing.
On a less infuriating note, Kina and I visited a local casino the other day. We had to figure out what the situation was with the million and a half casinos in Sioux Falls. So, let me set the scene for you. We park in a parking lot that holds 15 cars and walk towards a door with a hand written sign that reads Please ring bell. Apparently, there have been so many robberies that they keep the door locked at all times (comforting). We walked in the front door and looked around. There are 10 computerized poker machines and a woman with a smile. She explained to us how to play the games and then offered us free beer. Did you read that right? Yes, I said FREE beer. It's just like Vegas, minus the casino part. All bets were $0.25 and our game options were poker, keno, or bingo. Let me tell you what, I thought that there was nothing good in Sioux Falls up until that very moment. I can sleep soundly tonight knowing that at any time during my stay here i can get a beer for as little as a 25cent bid on computerized poker. f. yes.
Peace and Sparkles,
Allison
