And that it did. I had never been to a casino before this weekend. I guess I've never really desired to go somewhere just to flush my money down the toilet. However, I always did wonder "what if" I went and won. I would pee myself most definitely. But then I remembered I was the most unlucky person on planet Earth.
So this weekend my family and myself went to where Jeff lives to watch little brother sing at state {which by the way was uh.maz.ing}.
Every day I wonder where in the world his voice came from and why I didn't get it. I would show you proof I didn't get it but then you'd probably never come back. I'm so proud of him though and he totally deserved that beaut of a medal he is wearing! {He made state every year!}
So we went to the casino Friday night after a few glasses of wine and Jeff's homemade tongue on fire stir fry. When I walked in it was definitely what I expected. People everywhere. No seats. Straight craziness. What I wasn't prepared for is what was about to happen to me.
Scene I:
Me: I'm playing the penny machines! Where are the penny machines?!
I find the penny machines and two open seats for Jeff & I.
I put my 20 dollars in and hope for the best.
I click on random buttons that I have no idea what they do and I watch my money go down down down in the matter of seconds. #$!%. Is that even physically possible? Yeah it is in a casino I guess.
Seriously, I think it took me a whole 2 minutes to lose 20 dollars. BOOM. gone.
I was done. I evil eyed the machine and told it THANK YOU for the .18 cents.
Scene 2:
Dad: How's it going over here?!
Me: I hate the casino. I just lost 20 dollars in 2 seconds.
Dad: Here let me try it.
In the matter of minutes Dad wins $45.
Really?! Really. That happened. Oh and then two seconds later the lady next to us won 300 dollars. THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS. And I won .18 cents. It was a pretty BS moment. However, they provided pop so I made sure to drink my 20 dollars worth I had just lost.
We all ended coming out 20 dollars under, which I say wasn't too bad in the book of gambling. It was a lot of fun and next time I'm definitely either going to just watch or save my change and be prepared to lose.
I must add another key event of the weekend.
My JAYHAWKS whooped up on our college rivals for the best victory in college basketball I've ever seen. However, my heart is steal recovering. If you follow me on twitter I'm sure you were cursing me in your head. My apologizes.
I wish I could repeat weekends like this one because I loved every little second of spending so much time with my family and Jeff.
Let's get this week started off RIGHT!

Hahaha poor you and the casino :( But yay for your Jayhawks, and an even bigger YAY FOR 'CUSE!!! :)
I have a love/hate relationship with gambling too and I ALWAYS go through the whole, "this $20 could be a new pair of shoes!!" argument with myself ;-) I am SOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSO glad that I was not in the states to watch the KU/mu game because I would have DIED. So glad that we won :-D Rock Chalk is right!! Oh, and get this-- my two aunts and uncles bought $1400 tickets to the game with friends and she LEFT THEM AT HOME. OMG. Can you imagine?? Thankfully they were able to get in :-O
Ok don't hate me but I just cracked up at your story! I can picture you loosing the $20.00 I think I might have lost it at the point where the lady won 300!!!
I will have to disagree with you being the most unluckiest person young lady! :)
Girl u are not the only one....I sit at the penny machines put in as little as possible & drink as much as possible.
I always try to make $5 or $10 dollars last for as long as possible and just hang out. I hardly win anything, but I also don't like to bet big! :) Casinos and gambling are too risky for me...
Girl I rarely ever win! I once turned $20 to $90 and I left after that hahah
