Three Beautiful Things 12/27/09: Winning in Worley, Meatloaf Dinner, Poker on ESPN

1. Ed swung by Mom's about eight and we headed to the Cd'A Casino in Worley and after a five hour rollercoaster ride of wins and losses, I came out ahead!
2. I got just what I requested for my birthday dinner: meatloaf, baked potatoes, canned green beans with bacon, and cola with lime. Mom added cole slaw and IEGirl made a pumpkin roll for dessert. Birthday dinner was relaxing and satisfying.
3. I started my 56^th birthday with a little gambling and I ended with a little gambling, sort of . . . ESPN2 broadcast the final nine players battling for the title "Champion of Champions". Twenty past winners of the WSOP main event gathered to commemorate the 40^th anniversary of the World Series of Poker and played for a big cup, a 1969 red Corvette Sting Ray, and a ton of prestige. I enjoy watching these blue chip players and really enjoy watching them make the same mistakes a poker klutz like me makes!
