My car is still ghetto from the car accident in September '06, and rapidly becoming too small for our growing family. (Sam weights 19 pounds at 4 months, so he will soon be too big for his car seat, and we have to get another one that much larger). This car thing has been bugging me for a long time. So we went to one of those "fix your credit" car places, and got approved for a newer car. I told my dad, and since car payments are his archenemy in his life, he fronted us the money to buy a car. We bought a 2003 Dodge stratus, which is super roomy on the inside and super cool looking!
So, with car drama taken care of, and school money coming to pay dad back for the car, we decided to celebrate at the casino. We went last night (saturday) and had a couple drinks, flirted with each other at the bar and went to the tables to pay. We ended up moving to Texas hold'em. It kicked my butt, so I moved, but Nick stayed on there, and after a coupe hands, got dealt a royal flush!!! He won $5530!!! He came running over to my table yelling "I won 5000 bucks!!!" A whole bunch of people in the casino got all excited and what not. It was completely surreal until we cashed out, and the teller counted out 55 one hundred dollar bills and I held them.
Man, that was a weird feeling.
So March has been nice to me, and I hope it's being nice to everyone else.
PS: Sam is sitting on his own today too! XD
