My friend Julie invited me to attend a fundraiser for her kids athletic program. By ‘attend’ she meant take a bus filled with soccer moms (and a few dads) and head on down to the casino.
We spent most of the day playing bingo, which I found to be extremely boring. But Julie won $40 so she was excited. After we finished that we played the Penny Slots. Oh my gosh what fun that was! And I won $20! (I played $10 on the slots and $20 on bingo cards, but who’s counting…)
I broke a personal record this year. I watched all three of the Fellowship of the Ring movies in one sitting. And they were the extended versions. Boom!
Lucky for us fellow hobbits, elves, and dwarf want-to-bees, there was comfortable seating, close proximity to food and drink, and a short walk to the bathroom.
Gotta love Kennedy School’s Tolkien birthday bash. Can’t wait for next year!
Welcome to our land of snow and ice – at least for two days before it all melted.
