The Big Loser

Tonight Adam and I were subs for my mom's bunco group. For those of you who aren't familiar with the bunco ritual, twelve ladies meet once a month to eat and roll dice. Its usually ladies only, but in December the males are allowed to join in the fun for one night only. One of the "bunco babes" was unable to attend tonight so I filled in....lucky for Adam, it was couples night! Anyway, numerous prizes are given at the end of the evening: most buncos, most wins, and the big loser. I am proud to say that I was the big loser. Yes, I came in with a woppin 3 wins (there was talk that this might have been the least amount of wins in the history of the game.) On the bright side, I won my money back so I wasn't out anything.

On a different note, I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We enjoyed spending time with our family and just relaxing. Its always good to take it easy for a day and have the opportunity to really enjoy each others company. Plus, there's amazingly delicious food, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, and a wonderful Christmas movie to kick off the Christmas season. I've never done the day after Thanksgiving shopping and this year was no different. I was going to try it, not because I needed anything, I just wanted to say that I had experienced the madness but when 3:30am rolled around I decided sleep was way more important. Speaking of sleep, I should probably get some. I've had that weird cold thing thats been going around. Sore throat, runny nose, head feeling like its expanding...not fun. Even though cold weather brings yucky colds, I love it! Great clothes, scarves, hot chocolate, and the occasional fluries. I can't wait. I heard we are supposed to have a really cold winter this year. Maybe, just maybe, we'll have a white Christmas!
