The casino that my mother and her boyfriend fequent sent them coupons for $40 each on Christmas eve and Christmas. So we went to the casino and got there about 11 p.m. I spent most of the ride thinking on how to design 3D rendering sofware. I couldn't get lighting to work out. When my mother cashed in here coupon, she gave me $10 play the slots I sat at one of the penny slots(* 1). I sat there for an hour by the time I was almost out of money my mother gave me $14 bucks more in short order I hit $8.50 then $2.50 and another $2.50. I spent the next 4 hours playing the same machine.
I found my mother she gave me another $5 bucks we went to aother flooe of the casino and tryed some other slots. I tryed a Austin Powers theme slot and won $50. I cashed that in and payed my mother pack the money she loaned me and went to a differnt area of the casino and played ten bucks of the money I had left after another hour or so my mother was out of money I an claimed I was out of money I still had $10 I was trying to hold on too. My mothers boyfriend hit $50 so I loaned her the $10 when he went to cash out. After she payed me the money back I tryed a few diffrent slots I ended up back at that Austin Powers slot machine I gave it a try and won $50 bucks quickly I quickly cashed out keeping $40 and when back to playing the slots before my mother or her boy friend noticed. I think it was another hour of so before I met up with my mother by this time my lack of sleep was to the level where I act slightly drunk.
So I found my mother who was almost out of money I mentioned that I was holding on the fify. She just told me to talk to about the fact I need to get some sleep really bad. I found him and he said we could go when he lost the money he had.
Well my mother ended up betrying the fact I still had money. This were they demaned $20 each and they would pay me back (with the money the dont have to spend). I was standing there telling no I needed to go home because I stayed any longer I could get mistackin for being drunk in public. I finnally broke, because my mothers boy friend had that desparit addict look in his eyes, but i only gave them $10 each thinking that they would loose it quickly. My mother then hit $118 buck and gave me $35. And instead of keeping it she "had to lose it quickly"
Yes this is Christmas I find out my mother is an addicted gambler. I spent the ride home thinking about the fact my mother is an addicted gambling and I just bought a book on gambling for her. I slept alittle on the way back. I couldn't sleep when we got home. I could stop thinking about what had happened. I was tempted to just not give her the book.
I pretty much lost track of time at some point we did the present thing I did give my mother the book. I got hard back copies of 1984 and Animal Farm also a watch that the time is in binary. We didn't have Christmas dinner because my sister and her boyfriend were not goin to be here till tommrrow. So we had pizza. I guess, I went to bed at 6:30 in the evening.
