ONE more night in Peru, Why Not?

i missed my flight by 10 minutes and am currently waiting for my next flight, which i have to pay 100 for. i was 10 minutes late. so unbelievable. the woman just looked at me and said no. i was so fucking pissed. like i still had 50 minutes to get on the plane, and they just flat out refused. one guy was behind her constantly saying no. god i was so pissed. i then went outside and decided i nwas gonna get a taxi for 20 solas. so i just stood in the middle and yelled ¨hostel loki, 20 soles¨ guys would come up saying 30 and 25. i just kept saying 20. one guy agreed. i start following him, hes going to a street outsiude the airport and tells me thats where his car is. yeah good try buddy. so i go back and the same thing happens. apparently these are the dangerous taxis. so this young kid dropping off some tourists hears me shouting 20 and says lets go. as im getting in these other taxi drivers who were trying to get me to go with them keep shouting DANGER and PELIGROSO!

the taxi ride is nice. he puts electronica music on and bumps it. he drives fast and manuveurs well. all i can keep thinking about is those asshole drivers though. as we are driving up the hill, i see him pop the trunk, although he did it as conspicuously as possible. he starts driving down dark streets too. streets ive never seen other taxi drivers take. so he stops in a random spot and i know whats coming. he starts pointing to the back sayig the trunk is open, go out and close it. no fucking way. like im just not moving, looking at him cold. he gets out and closes it, then puts the car in gear and starts driving. i remove the large pair of scissors from my bag and clutch it in my hand. 10 minutes later im getting fropped off at the hostel.

so i go straight to the casino cuz now ive got all night to play poker and craps. eric from georgia is here and comes with, wanting to learn about the gambling. we proceed to get wasted, and he pulls me aside and says ¨can i tell you a secret?¨ sure can buddy. "i wanna be a writer" it was so cute. all this time im playing the don't pass and dont' come line at craps and winning a fuckton cuz the game is cold as ice.

poker was unbelievable. the rake was 3% of the pot and 2 dollars for the jackpot drop. i won a $700 pot and paid $23 rake. wow. i actually busted out with JJ vs 99 all in preflop and a 9 on the flop. as the money is being pushed to the dude, he looks at me and says "lo ciento" i simply reply, "no you're not." i ended up even for the night.
