The Big Birthday Weekend

Another birthday passed, but this was a big one - I turned 30! So I thought this year I'd go all out and a bunch of people came down to Atlantic City with me.

Props to everybody that hauled to a boardwalk town in the middle of freaking winter. But most of you are gambling folk so you had enough to amuse you while you were down there right? Anyway, about thirteen of us had dinner together and then scattered to the winds to play various game. I was all over the casino - over the weekend I played: Sic Bo, roulette, slots, craps, Texas Hold Em (the table game) poker, video poker and blackjack. I sort of broke even at the end which is pretty much the same as winning, just with less money. Here are the funny comments from the weekend:

He was busy getting the rust sucked off his bumper.

Table for 13 please. Name? Jesus.

We should just order red wine and bread!

It's not over yet Coach!

Good luck on those Jacks! Except you! Not on your jack.

How often do we have a poker table to ourselves? Every Sunday night!

Jaegerbombs! Jaegerbombs, jaegerbombs!

Not now chief, I'm in the fucking zone.

Thanks again everybody for an awesome weekend, it was great. Hope we can do it again soon!

Memorial Day Weekend

I've been meaning to do a post about last weekend for days now...but it's been a helluva week. God what I loser I am. But anyway, we went down to Atlantic City (where else?) and had a great freaking time. What was nice about this weekend was we had three days to fill with Atlantic City activity. Normally if we go down for one night all we really find time for is dinner and gambling. But this time, we squeezed in the new upscale Pier mall, walks on the boardwalk, a half a day at the beach, relaxing in the jacuzzi, massages, a tarot card reading, a walk on the Steel Pier and of course, dinner and gambling. Gambling was pretty crazy this weekend, I was way down but then took quite a bit of it back. In the interest of keeping this post fun, I'll get right to the funny comments:

This coffee is really good. Everything is good at the Borgata, Jenn. EVERYTHING.

Hey, I'm winning! I'm going to up my bet. (Pat puts an extra chip out on the Texas Hold Em bonus ante.) No I'm not. I'm a pussy. (And grabs the chip back).

Hello. We have come a great distance seeking Spice Road....

Silencio! Cut the malarkey!

Damn, you're chasing those rivers like a fucking kamikaze pilot.

You know the rules are the same for every hand, right?

Wait, you let a man rub your butt?

This town ain't bit enough for the two of us! And Pat signing "I got spurs..."

That soup looks very...beefy.

I bring nothing to the table. Meaning, I contribute...nothing.

Last funny moment, Michelle almost getting herself a job at Scandals from the dressing room in Guess! It was my fault for bringing the wrong (oh so wrong) top.
