september my september, is there any other way?

Went to the Club Regent Casino last night. I can honestly say that, as I walked in and saw the HUGE sea of slot machines at least 75% filled (on a Tuesday!), my emotions were sad. I felt sad for the people who sit there for hours, wasting money away (I drained $5 quite quickly), hoping that their 'technique' will work on a machine-of-chance and have their lives changed like in the movies.

It just baffles me.

Although it was fun to think about being in Ocean's 11 while walking through.

Also on the positive, my girl MEGHAN is back from Ontario (who was my company to the Casino). Which means....it's September, my other favourite month of the year! However, it's different this year than any other. It's hurting me to see all these people going back to school. I want to go back to school...*sigh* Yes, we Reimer girls have always been a little weird. I'll have to learn (<--ha, pun) to deal with a school-less September, let alone year, for the first time since my pre-school days!

I'll consider this past week's shopping spree my pseudo "back to school" shopping. Maybe I'll go buy some crisp new pencil crayons too.
