Lucky Uncle, his wife, Mom and I went to the meadows race track and casino tonight for the St. Paddy's day blow out. Only platinum players get to go (mom and I were guests. We dont' gamble that heavily). The buffet was amazing. I ate so much shrimp cocktail. There were bangers and mash and salmon and a pork loin with guinness sauce none of which I touched. Ate damn near everything else though, pickled beets/eggs (love pickled eggs), a sweet potato/apple/raisin 'Waldorf' type salad that was fantastic, shepherd's pie, corned beef with grainy mustard and a huge cheese spread that I could have eaten in it's entirety. Also had some sugar cookies, an Irish take on tiramisu using Bailey's Irish cream served in a shot glass (I had two) and mom and I split the huge Bailey's Irish cream cheesecake slice. So. Much. Food.

However before the food, Mom and I sat down at the Gold progressive we like. I put in twenty and it was gone in a few spins and on the last spin, the machine game to life. I won 135$. I played around after dinner and I hit bonuses on every machine. Mom spotted a new game and pointed, "There, Dana, go there!" It was a Dungeons and Dragons game complete with male or femal avatars. Won more there then lost part of it on the Walking Dead (though I got the best bonus there).

There was a bizarre new machine that was huge, a cylinder about 8-9 feet in diameter and the top of it was like a roulette wheel. If you hit that bonus the ball drops and you get whatever slot it goes in (10$ only in my case but it was fun). I hit a great bonus on my last machine, 11 free spins then hit the other bonus in the middle of those. Won50$ on that. I came home 120$ richer.

Good night.

I forgot to mention yesterday that Dad and I went out to my car. I did notice in the last few rains that the corner on the driver's side tail light the trunk is wet. I couldnt' see where it was coming in. We investigated and it was worse than I thought. When we took out the spare the well was filled with about an inch or more of water. We had to drain it. We pulled out all the upholstry in the back. What a pain in the ass (and I'd have to do that to change out a tail light). No where was a leak. Everything was dry and dusty except that corner. it's like it's raining inside the damn trunk. We couldn't figure it out but at least we buffed out the huge scratch I made scraping that 18 inches of snow off the damn car. I never have easy problems.
