Kim’s been quiet so far today and didn’t turn out to be all that bad yesterday, but I don’t want to spend much time writing about her because every time I do someone comes slamming in.

It’s to be in the 60s for the next few days, amazingly.

I’ve had the lowest win month ever in compensation for the cruise and wakeboard. Where I usually win about 10 times a month or more, I’ve only had 2 wins so far this month.

The wakeboard people called about a week ago to let us know they’d be shipping out the board and to call them if I didn’t receive it in 4 weeks. Then yesterday they wanted to know if I wanted it made up for a guy, a woman, what colors, etc., and I was like, why couldn’t they have asked me this shit up front? We’d really like to either get this thing to sell or a cash option in time for the trip to cover the plane tickets.

These next 80 days are going to be a bit boring with nothing to do but sweep and write since we don’t have the money for him to bet aggressively right now and I can’t do any shopping. The only shopping we’ll do before the trip is for clothes. Then when we return, if all goes well we’ll make tons of money, buy a trailer to hitch to a new vehicle, and get into a motel till we can get into a rental down there while we figure out where to build or buy a house. If we’re being unbelievably cruelly teased, then we’ll rent a small U-Haul, dump our stuff in storage someplace down there, live in motels till he can find a job in a place that has more blacks than Phoenix, then buy a paper-thin trailer in the midst of the mainstream’s chaos and hope I win big while I’m at least grateful to be out of the cold.
