The Weekend

We drove to the West Baden Springs Hotel and as you can see it's magnificent. There's a casino down the way and we put 1$ in a slot machine. We gave that dollar a good ride, and almost walked away with 9$. In the end, we left with 1 cent. So that was disappointing.

I am reading eool as well. It is good, and I can really relate to the timely chicago-ness of some of it from my past. 1 cent. You crack me up.

I love When You Reach Me. I just finished Countdown by one of my fav authors. I see it's the first book in a trilogy.

We are not much for gambling either. Ended up at a casino one time, spent $5 and walked away with $2 and two free drinks. Husband laughs at me because I always tell him, "I want /something/ for my money." Might be a stupid stuffed animal at the fair, but I want SOMETHING. ;)
