This post should be kept in a ziploc bag.
- ALISON: how was las vegas?
- WENDY: it was okay
- kinda fun
- it got kinda tiring
- i usually love it
- but we usually stay somewhere quieter
- the mgm grand is madness
- but i entertained myself with the idea that they let the lions out to wander around the casino for fifteen minutes every night at midnight
- ALISON: haha
- would people place bets on it?
- WENDY: it's just another kind of gamble
- it's another way to encourage risk-taking
- ALISON: exactly. you have to know someone to get in on the REAL gambling that goes on there
- WENDY: like, i survived the lion release
- i must be lucky
- it would encourage a devil-may-care attitude
- ALISON: I didn't know they really have lions there
- where are they?
- WENDY: in a big glass cage
- near the poker room
- ALISON: just like in the wild
- WENDY: except for that fifteen minutes
- when they could be ANYWHERE
- ALISON: right
- I can't even think about it without feeling like a lion is crawling up my leg!
- WENDY: yeah
- when i see one, instead of killing it
- i trap it under a glass
- and let it go outside
- ALISON: I have a giant lion swatter
- that I sometimes resort to
- but sometimes I accidentally take out a wall
- I'll be like "oh, I'm going to get you!"
- and then I knock over the wall and the lion gets away
- I probably should have lion proofed the apartment
- WENDY: yeah
- we're having ours tented
- ALISON: that's smart
- lions will get into everything
- for example, you can't leave elk out overnight
- they smell it
- so I put all my elk in ziplock bags in the freezer
- WENDY: smart
- ALISON: I found a bunch of lions living in between my mattress and box spring
- I almost threw up
