Am I a Happy Camper?

Ok gals, I just had to share that I met a friend Stephanie last night for dinner who I haven't seen in a couple of months. Why this is the case when we live 15 minutes away from each other I have no idea. At any rate, she is a friend who I met in San Diego (our hubbies worked together at the surfboard factory there) who is from Jersey & decided to move back the same time we did -how bizarre & the Jeans had nothing to do with it. So, we decide to go to Atlantic City to dinner at Wolfgang Puck's Bistro in the Borgata Casino, only to find out that the restaurant is closed for 2 weeks-just our luck! I might add that 2 times in the past that we have gone out for our "girls night out" the restaurants we chose were closed for random reasons. So we find another place to dine & then decide to stroll around the casino to people watch & to determine which machine to throw our whopping $20 into. I am bored with what I am seeing when out of the blue, I catch out of the corner of my eye the good old Happy Camper nickel slot! I am certain that my night is going to be filled with a fabulous story of winning big. I got the "marshmallow bonus" 2 times & that was about it. The Bear let me down this time. Needless to say, I walked away with $20 less in my wallet, but good memories of my time with you gals in Vegas. Apparently I am some sort of a gambler now? hmmm I will anxiously await my turn to wear the Pants & will head on back to AC to see if my luck will change.
