Went to Red Rock Casino this morning because a friend wanted to take us to the buffet for brunch. Little bit of gambling there and I lost about $40 of the $80 I was ahead from yesterday ( Read more... )

Meant to say all is well with my world.

We went out to lunch and when we got back there was a call from AirTran that they had my bag. They said they'd be here between 4 and 7 and I asked if someone had to be here. They said I could leave a note on the door authorizing them to leave it. We waited until 5:00 and had to leave for a dinner reservation so I left the note on the door. ( Read more... )

My flight from Philly was at 6:15 this morning so I arrived at the airport at 3:45AM only to find that there was already a long line and the ticket counter didn't open until 4:30. Seeing as how their first flight out is 6AM and they advise you to be there at least 2 hour ahead it seems stupid that they don't open the counter sooner. Then I tried ( Read more... )

I've gotten in the habit of bringing my Axim to work and watching TV shows during lunch.  It used to be nice to go home at lunchtime, but since we've moved I find a lunch hour too long and now I've found a way to fill it.  Yesterday for lunch here they had spaghetti and I got out my really good heaphones and was struggling to untangle them and I ( Read more... )

I'm off to Atlantic City for the night. Was able to get a comped room at Harrahs, but couldn't get one at Showboat, which is where I'd rather be. Strange since Showboat is my "home" Harrahs property. Showboat probably got filled early because they are doing 3X bonus rewards.

This may be my last casino trip before BARGE.

Wish me luck.

The year that Rubin won we bougjt an extra set and sold it on Ebay. We made enough to cover our ticket cost and a very small profit. The year that Carrie won we bought 2 extra sets and did well also with them. ( ( Read more... )

Back safe and sound from AC. Only had a chance to play in one sit and go but I came in second. Paid 50+15 and won 100. Tipped the deaer 5 for a whopping profit of $30. Of course I then put that all in a video poker machine. After dinner played a few hours of 2/4 Holdem which seemed to be the highest limit game at Bally's. Finished with ( Read more... )
