HELLLOOOOOO sistahs!!!!  How has your week been?  Sorry I have been MIA.. been a little crazy but NO EXCUSE.. so I will commit to more entries n’k?  My mom and I had a great time in “buffalo”.. but  we didn’t really go to buffallo… LOL  we actually snuck to a little teeny tiny hidden away casino.. (our little secret) and had a great time!!!!  Does anyone else like to gamble a little? any funny stories?? Ok, I will share mine from just this past tuesday but really I am a little EMBARRASSED so don’t make fun of me k?  pLomise? K.. here goes!

So I sit myself down at a LET IT RIDE table with a little side of THREE CARD POKER.. VERRRY comfy womfy… and on my first hand I pull back a bet (NOT GOOD WHEN YOU HAVE A GREAT HAND).. the guy next to me almost punches me and announces that I lost $10… Ok so that is how my first hand goes.. I claim that the reason I made this mistake is due to lack of caffeine…. SO what do I do??? I order a coffee of course!   So here comes my coffee.. I am sipping, I am happy, I am winning… and then what do you think happens?  *insert shriek here*  Yup, you guessed it…  I SPILLED THE COFFEE ALLL OVER THE CLOFF (cloth) TABLE!!!!! so the whole table were shooting me the EVILIST looks..  I was apologizing to death.. sweating… and the pitboss gets paper towels and then walks away.. then thinks about it.. then comes back…(still doesn’t wipe the table).. I am sitting in horror staring at the dribbles of coffeee spreading all over the CLOFF.. freaking out internally… and finally he decides to close the table for HOUSEKEEPING to reopen in 1/2 an hour…. So I apologize again and continue to freak out internally and of course return in a half an hour.. only to see that they ran out of chips and the pit bosses were staring at each other at a loss of what to do.. at that point, I took my CLUMSY self out of my chair, and left..  I just couldn’t take the clueless looks the pit bosses had.. HMPH.. double hmph.. triple hmph… LOL.. so that is my little anecdote for the day… NUGGET..LOL  you likey da story?
