CHA-CHING!!

Well last night was mine and Marc's first date night since before we had Kane! Of course I had to drop both kids off at different grandparents and was quite tired by the time I got home but I mus turd up enough energy to get ready. Marc wanted to go to the casino in Niagara Falls but I really wasn't too keen on the idea. Boy things have sure changed because normally it's me that's itching to go. Anyway, I agreed and off we went. I swear it was like we went through a time warp because before I knew it, we were driving down the road, blaring the radio and relaxing like old days..no Disney channel on Sirius..just plain old, good music! I will tell you poor Marc has been tortured by the Go-Go's since I can remember and sure enough they played them!

As we were walking into the casino Marc said "I'm feelin' lucky tonight" and of course I did my typical eye roll and just kept walking. Long story short, didn't he sit down at a machine and say "I'm feeling this one", inserted his money (which I thought we would never see again) and CHA-CHING!! The machine's bells and whistle started chimming away! After about 2 minutes of listening to the machine I begged him to hit the button to stop it and he wouldn't! I reached over and hit the button in the mean time trying to calculate 2000 quarters, but couldn't process the information! SO here I am saying "gee Marc it's got to be a couple hundred bucks but still couldn't do the math because I was in shock. Out spits the golden ticket and walla....$500 buckaroons! On top of that Mr. Lucky won another $75 from video poker!

All in all it was a great night and I must say having a few glasses of wine again after being "sober" for so long tasted great!
