I know I shouldn't be at the casino

But today it paid off. I was down 80.00 precious dollars. Now I'm ahead a few.

Thanks Dale for the dinner and I'm sorry your video poker didn't pay off.

For my loyal readers... I don't frequent the casino but the few times I do go, I love to play.  Tonight Dale took me there for dinner on his free voucher so I had to play a little!   I do love to gamble just have the willpower to stay away.  Tonight, I'm glad I went and picked this total random machine.

I didn't know how the machine really worked and when it started flashing I thought I had won 253.00.  Big surprise when I was told 1468.50!!

Guess this covers an apartment rehab, huh.  Karma
Thanks sis, great job mending fences.  Again, karma.

Another weird thing that happened- well, I guess it isn't so weird according to the guy working at the casino-a Spanish speaking lady was standing next to me when I won.  We were laughing and getting all excited.  She waited while the employee filled out the forms and was there when he returned with the cash (yes, cash!). After I signed and turned to leave, she put out her hand like she expected me to give her some money.  I freaked out a little and told the guy 'I'm leaving right now' and Dale and I left.  I checked behind me to see if she was following and instead the nice man was behind me.  He said to never give money to people at the casino.  Apparently there are lurkers like that around the machines and they ask for handouts.  He said they tell them to leave but they are always around.  Weird!

So, those of you who know my TV,... Should I go and buy a new one now?  I feel guilty and some of you know why- but- best buy is offering 36 months interest free financing... Seems like a great opportunity to trade up.   My mind repeats grandad's words "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".... Comments?  I'd like a small one for my bedroom too but that would equal FOUR TVS in this house.   
I do watch a lot of movies and would like the white noise at night... Again.. Comments?  I'm weak right now in more ways than one!
