Mark and I went to the Clearwater Casino last night for the buffet and it was quite yummy! I'm not normally a 'buffet' type but I wasn't in the mood to cook and Italian food sounded good! For $9 we got all we could eat and I have to admit their spaghetti and meatballs were excellent although a little spicy. I think we definitely got our money's worth!
Of course, I couldn't pass up playing my favorite slot machine (Neon Nights) but it was absolutely cold as ice to me. $40 went by the wayside quickly and I was bummed. On our way out I saw my Las Vegas favorite (Wheel Of Fortune) and said $10 more and Mark was kind enough to sit and play $5 with me. Somehow, Lady Luck decided to smile upon me because I kept hitting in a little over 5 minutes! For a little nickel machine I walked out of there $70 up for the night....insert picture of Trina doing a happy jig!
Fun times.....my good friends, Joe and Betsy are getting married on Friday! They're doing this in style having the event at a lovely place called Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo. Seems strange but this amazing couple planned this huge event in 8 weeks flat. I am so impressed....I think they should do this for a living!
I have been having a great time checking out a flash website called albino blacksheep . It has some of the funniest and most entertaining videos I've ever seen. Check out my personal favorites: the Gollum Rap , Badgers Japanese Pingpong . Incredibly stupid, a waste of time but it's funny stuff, man!
I think of Horton the Elephant in "Seussical" saying, "a person's a person no matter how small." Sometimes I feel like I am too small, even for Horton to notice me. I'm not trying to throw myself a pity party here. I have just been contemplating my life and wondering what is its true purpose? I certainly don't think my career is driving me toward some kind of nirvana. It's something that helps pays my bills (even if it isn't enough) and gives me some benefits. I am trying to figure out a way to get out of this rut and do something more meaningful. I am actually surprised to be sitting here at my age thinking these thoughts. I'm kind of wondering what do I have to show for it all? Do I lead a small life? Do I live in a little microcosm like Who-ville? Hmmmm, I don't know whether to philosophize or feel sad.
