Now this is more like it

The day at work was average but after work was fantastic!

We were attending a dinner held at Caesar's Windsor casino by an association that my workplace communicates with for fundraising. This is one of the things I love about my job; we get to go to benefit dinners and I get free meals. Tonight's entree was striploin steak with potatoes and seasonal veg. How often do you get a free steak dinner while you're working?

When it was all said and done, I stayed behind to explore the casino for a bit. I stepped into one of the slot machine rooms and decided to throw caution to the wind and play a little. I put ten dollars into one machine and got a fifty dollar payout in return. My first time at a casino and I win fifty dollars in the first five minutes! I was a responsible gambler, though. Not interested in tempting fate I cashed in my winnings and left for home. I'm not going to throw it all back the first time.

And then I got home and got to pay my cable bill. Easy come, easy go. At least I get paid this week.

Smart! But now I've got that "know your limit, play within it" commercial in my head...
