Double down, baby!

So y’all probably don’t know this, but I’m not bad at blackjack. I mean, I’m not going to break the bank at Vegas or anything, but as a rule, I do all right.

At a company Christmas party in the 90’s, we went across the state line to South Carolina and had a gambling party. We got X number of chips and played various gambling games, and at the end of the night got to bid on prizes. I won the bed and dresser that we still have in our bedroom.

Of course, next year I lost all my chips within the first 15 minutes, but that’s neither here nor there.

Anywho, for the holidays, the Dragonrealms Gamemasters had a little in-game blackjack tourney. And guess who won? Yeah, baby! Many, many thanks to GM Rinae for putting that together. I’m already going over my Amazon wish list to decide what to spend my gift certificate on.

Woo! Vice pays!

Side note: Emily had an excellent day. There is apparently a new assistant in the class on Mondays, and yes, he was very helpful in helping her stay calm after a rough start. She did great. We hit the post office, where the clerk gave her a lollipop, then Starbucks, where she got a giant black and white cookie. Then we came home and because it was so beautiful we ran some footraces. Then, apparently having some excess sugar in her system from that huge cookie, she revved around the front yard on her imaginary scooter. Go girl!
