casino night

[cornerofmadness]

and shopping all day. I probably made a mistake of buying the first season of Darker than Black at halfprice book store since half price of 70$ is still damn high but whatever. I hope it's good since it's used. Got a new pair of sunglasses at TJMaxx and got some great thrift horror pics at the new Goodwill (hope to post in the next day or so). It was pretty funny hey mom, you had this Santa. Yes, I donated to this goodwill. Ah. Got some stuff at the Costco's including 3 liters of olive oil.I was nearly out. Mom buys everything. What makes me feel bad is that I've come to expect it.

Went to the casino with Mom Lucky Uncle, my aunt and my two cousins. I played for 3 hours and lost only 20 so that means I played on their money mos the night. Lucky uncle won 3,500. He sucks. He did however give me scads of free drink coupons.

I really need to get into original fiction writing mode. yikes.

Lucky Uncle has some serious mojo.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

he always does.

I wish Lucky Uncle would teach me his luck.

Yay for stuff?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

so do I

yay if you like olive oil and dal

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Olive oil is okay. I need it to season my skillets again.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

mine rusted. so much for cast iron. next skillet is going to be ceramic

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Cast iron does rust. I'm still fond of it.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

the only advantage I see is being able to put it in the oven for dishes that require that

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Marinara sauce doesn't taste right to me unless it's cooked in iron.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it's hard to find a stockpot made from cast iron though

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I have a nice sized skillet. Like, 3 inches deep or more. :D

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah, that's not really how you make sauce. My Italian grannies would faint. If you can't bathe in the pot, it ain't for sauce

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

You have your ways....

If I could have just a pinch of his luck when I play poker...

As for Darker than Black, can't say if it was worth the prices, but I did like the show.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

no kidding. his luck is insane

I did too. It's getting older so I probably could have gotten it online for a little less.

Well... maybe it did rub off... played poker tonight at a nearby poker room. Washed out of a tournament pretty quick and went to the cash tables. While I was there the cards kept hitting me. Finished the night up $350.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

My sister is SERIOUSLY lucky. In Atlantic City she has won:
RENT in NYC
Money split with Mom for a NEW couch with chaise (this last time)

Dad put in his last dollar coins while Mom was cashing out and won $1,600 dollars! :)

I'm with you on the, "Mom Treats"... don't worry about it. My sister, she has said, "the BoM" re herself... the Bank of Mom.

There isn't any shame in it. She WANTS to do it for you. LET her!

So yeah, I'm so dragging my Mom to get the M.A.C. lipstick she's looking at... and dragging her to Sephora and H&M, and she's ON ME to get some black business pants... they're so going to be Banana Republic. They look the best on me.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

that is lucky

Yeah, I let her because she just fusses and gets madif I don't let her buy it

there you go, good luck
