So I went gambling today at Batavia Downs. Lost $15 playing video poker within the first 20 minutes. Soooo I got up, went to the ATM and got out another $20(Please tell me that doesn't make me sound like a gambling addict) and then, my friends, 'Ol Davey-boy had a change in luck. Ashley and I walked around for a little while and I saw this one lonely slot machine...it was as if time stopped for a brief moment and the machine said "hey asshole, stick money in me and gamble your life away." My crisp 20 slid, oh so gently into the tight crevice, and the machine read 80 credits ($.25 per credit). I always max bet because momma always said, "When playing a progressive, max bet so you win the max prize...you gotta lose big to win big!" And lose big i did. I was down to 25 quarters when all of a sudden a flash occurred! An old man walking by said "YOU'RE WINNING BIG!" (In my head I said "your balls must be reeeeally loose and saggy").
But the old man was right...
When the lights stopped flashing and the dings stopped dinging, there was only 3 numbers i saw in bright red: PLAYER CREDITS: 228.... yup thats right 57 bucks just like that. I quickly texted(or is it just "text"?) my dad to tell him the news. His only response was, "go home a winner, cash out now. DONT BLOW IT"
So when it was all said and done, I was a big fat winner. Oh....on a side note, I saw Charlie Gomez playing a slot machine! I think maybe his whole family came together because one full row was full of Mexicans(but hey it could be just an enormous coincidence because I have read that even if they aren't family, Mexicans will flock to one another.) But seriously, Charlie Gomez!!! What are the odds of that? Anyways, yeah I'm a winner and it feels good. Tomorrow I have a drumline competition which should be a blast, hopefully we make it two weeks in a row in 1st place! Ok bed time, gotta wake up waaay early tomorrow. Hmmm... I should probably finish this Cancer infested can of Mt. Dew first though...
Goodnight my faithful readers
