Im Feeling 14

The last job that I have gone on was 4 days ago! I really cant believe that they are paying us to sit in a camp and do nothing - at the moment I have the best job in the world! In the last 4 days we went down to the town close to us. It has 70,000 people, so it is mid-sized - just big enough to have a few bars, hotels, and a casino!!!

The first night we let loose and went to the bar. It wasn't a good end. We ended up getting a room in the city since we got a weekend deal.

The second and third nights we went to the casino and tore up the roulette tables!! The shear amount of red and repeat numbers was insane! One time I told my buddy, I'm feeling 14 (just joking) and everyone on the table put down 10 chips on 14 and surrounded it too. 14 hit and we each got $600!!! It was awesome!

Now Im back in the camp and we had steak dinner tonight. The meat here is really good, and to quote the taxi driver from my trip from the airport to Edmonton, "The meat here in Alberta is the best in the world! You need to go get yourself a good hamburger. Not one from MacDonald's, like Burger King or Wendys." Hahahahaha

I have been watching alot of Breaking Bad and really like it, its not for everyone though.
