1. I make three wagers a year at the Spokane Tribal Casino's Caesar's Sportsbook: the Super Bowl, the NCAA men's basketball tournament, and the World Series.
This year Ed, Buff, Darren, and I all wagered on the Eagles to win the Super Bowl. Our bets were successful and today we hustled over to Airway Heights and cashed in our winning tickets.
2. I had a plan. I would protect myself with a mask and vinyl gloves and play machines for a while with my winnings and come home with half of what I won having bet on the Eagles. That ungambled money would go in the envelope of cash I am saving for our April trip to Pendelton.
Well, as it turned out, I returned home and put all but five dollars of my Eagles' win into my Pendleton envelope. I had some decently good luck spinning reels and now have a modestly more bountiful envelope of savings than I thought I would when I left the house this morning.
3. Debbie and I quietly retreated into the evening. We yakked for a while about life at Pinehurst Elementary School where there's rarely a dull moment and then left each other to our solitude. I started the Thursday NYTimes Crossword and Debbie relaxed with some videos on the World Wide Web. Ah! Another peaceful evening for us.
