Doin the Skagit

Tonight my mom watched the kids (and brought them a pizza! love you Grandma!) and I headed down to the Skagit casino with my co-worker Sharon (who talks like a trucker. I love her) to attend a lecture about vision and new lenses, etc. Her and I were probably the least knowledgeable two there, and our jobs really don't have a whole lot to do with the lecture, but in a small office it's helpful to have a general sense of what is new and important in each department. Her husband Larry drove us down and hung out at the slots the entire time. I walked out with a free t-shirt, and he walked out with $200!
I would have loved to stay and piss away a few bucks, but didn't want to abuse my mother. She works for the post office, and you can only imagine how that place looks during the month of December. My only gripe of the night is that we were inside the casino for less than 10 minutes, and my hair reeks like a cigarette. Ick.

oh but remember that lovely overnight trip driving the race cars that those reeking cigs allowed you to experience. :) I tried to quit a few weeks ago....I made it 1 3/4 days. :)
