personal

Just wanted to introduce myself, so you know a little bit about who is writing this blog. I was born and raised in Henderson, where I lived all the way up until I finished high school (I went to Green Valley High). When we both graduated, my high school sweetheart and I moved in together in a little apartment on north Rainbow, where we lived for a few years... But more about that later.

I work as a blackjack dealer at the Wynn. I love my job and the tips are awesome. I originally started graveyard shift at Casino Royale, but worked my way up, until now where I get to deal weekends (although it doesn't really matter as we pool are tips and get paid out at the end of the week anyway).

Anyway, enough about work, and back to my sweetheart, aka. The Ex Girlfriend. I loved dealing cards, she went to college... Turns out she was more into the artsy literature type of guy than a gambler who likes cars and loud music. After six months of cheating on me, she finally broke the news that she wasn't happy with me, and left.

My world was upside down for a few months... At 23 I hadn't really known an adult life without her, and I went through a real rough patch...

...no more though. A buddy and I rented a house in Summerlin together with a pool, and for the last few months we've been living it up. That's kind of why I started this blog, to give guys like me some inspiration that there is a light at the end of the tunnel if you ever suffer a bad breakup like I did. I know people hate to hear about "plenty of fish in the sea", but it's true, and this blog will prove it.

I hope you enjoy.
