I still don't get the hype. I HATE loosing money. I like to have something to show for my money.
We went to the casino tonight for April's birthday. I had a great time. Kelli, Dave, and I had a riot cheering on April and some dude on the Indiana Jones slots. I believe she walked away about $20 or so richer. I played also, lost $20.00.
I love to go to the casino cause I love to people watch but I also leave there with a heavy heart. There are soooo many people there playing with money that they shouldn't be wasting. While we were laughing and cheering April on because "Momma needs a new pair of shoes" some of those people out there really do need a new pair of shoes but instead they put it in the machines.
Jeremy and I were talking and we agree that casinos do bring alot to a community. Most, if not all casinos give a lot of money to the community they are in. They bring in jobs, and new businesses. So where do I stand on casinos.....not really sure, but for now if you decide to go could you go up to Little River Band, thanks very much!!
It seems that we had parallel conversations after last night... while I joke and laugh, it also makes me sad to think about all the money lost, and families ruined on the high hope of hitting it big.
