BIKES, BINGO and I can't think of another "B" *LOL*

I have come here many times over the last few weeks to write and tell you all about my boring life....but something always comes up and I can't seem to sit here long enough to publish an entry!

I have been planning my vacations....yep that's right....I get 2 this year! And I am ready to leave on both of them right now! Sadly, although I am mentally ready...financially not so much. *L* It has been a stressful couple of weeks around the old Bay but Vacation # 1 is just 14 days away! I hope I can hold on to my sanity until then!

As some of you know, Sugarbritches owns a Harley and he LOVES that bike.....I mean it's a freaky kind of love that only other bikers understand....I am not a biker! There is a reason I am not a biker.....I have seen "ladies" on the back of bikes and it is never a good look for a woman.....especially a...shall we say...."vuluptuous woman". Being a "voluptuous woman" I tend to stay far away from the back end of the bike. Well, I guess the fact that I have lost almost 30lbs (And apparently several hundred brain cells) since joining the Y... I MISTAKENLY thought I could go for a "quick ride down the road" I broke him! Sugarbritches that is! I am guessing here... but I think when I was trying to get on the bike the handlebars turned and that's when he yelled OW!!! This of course can't be good.....Dear readers if he is not able to ride that Bike while we are at the beach....I AM A DEAD WOMAN WALKING!!

This happened on Sunday....on Monday morning Mr. "I don't like going to the Dr." had called and made himself an appt. Long story short(er) he tore the cartilidge in his arm! Doc said to take an anti-inflamatory and it should be ok in a few weeks....NO Doc...it HAS to be better in 2 weeks! So far he says it is feeling better and although I am certain it is, he tells me it was not my fault and I shouldn't feel bad. Needless to say my riding days are OVER!

In between working, trying to wound SB and planning my vacations I did something fun this week. I went to play BINGO. Now I know what you are thinking.....I am a big DORK but I LOVE BINGO! I get so excited when I am close to winning you just wouldn't believe it! Well if you know me you might believe it...but anyway, I went Thurs. night with my MIL and it was a blast! I haven't played in a long time and to be honest I really had no clue what I was doing most of the time. I mean I don't know all the ways you can win. I also didn't know you could win so much! At the beginning of the night I won a $15 game....woohoo! Boy was I excited! Five or Six games later MIL won....she said that she always split 80/20 with her playing buddy and then she gave me $40! WHAT???? how did she win that much and then why on earth would be share with me?!? Once I questioned her a little I figured out that we were playing for BIG bucks! *G* Most games were for $100 but she had won a $300 game! Holy Smokes! I was really excited about playing now! We played several more games with me getting "on" (meaning I only needed 1 number to win) a couple of times but not winning. Well with 3 games left to play MIL wins AGAIN! She is up to $400 bucks at this point and my little $15 is feeling pretty sorry for itself. Then I notice I only need one number on the next to last game....surely they wouldn't call N36....the very next # was N36!! I won $125!!!!!!!!!!! And I only needed 1 more # to win another $125 but 5 #'s later someone else won. Oh well, can't win them all. But I am officially hooked! We are going again next week!

Oh, and before you think that I would miss Survivor for a lousy $180 I should tell you that SB taped it for me so after all that excitement I came home to watch Terry win imunity again! I am sort of on the fence about who should win this time....I think anyone but Shane would be good! *L*
