I tagged along to waste money because,&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;obviously&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;I'm loaded [YEAH RIGHTT!]. Bingo is one of the most intense things to me, along with Poker, 21, Texas hold'em, ect. (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;Whattt?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 17px;"&gt; I am my mothers daughter after all)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; There are a couple of other reasons though, I'm 99.9% sure I'm&amp;nbsp;dyslexic,&amp;nbsp;throughout&amp;nbsp;half way playing I start to&amp;nbsp;experience&amp;nbsp;numbers floating like some freaky thing from &lt;a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1375666/"&gt;Inception&lt;/a&gt; and the little color dauber dots end up everywhere! Literally everywhere, my arms, the table, and sometimes when I start getting too intense it ends up on all my neighbors&amp;nbsp;winkled&amp;nbsp;skin (and&amp;nbsp;I'm&amp;nbsp;not talking about mom). If u really think about it bingo is a really intricate game, it all depends on fate and those small numbered balls.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;When I need that one number, just one, to win the jackpot, of course by that time i'm chewing off my finger nails, pulling my hair out, and possibly&amp;nbsp;contemplating&amp;nbsp;on stealing my&amp;nbsp;shriveled&amp;nbsp;up neighbor stinky puffer giving me second hand smoke, maybe it would have gave me some luck......&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T04BgVl5aPY/TglSm4PlJXI/AAAAAAAAAA8/CPPJJeOx0XM/s1600/2011-06-27+21.09.52.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T04BgVl5aPY/TglSm4PlJXI/AAAAAAAAAA8/CPPJJeOx0XM/s320/2011-06-27+21.09.52.jpg" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"&gt;Then "BINGO!", and my dreams of how I already planned spending the cash were crushed! By the mean lady shushing me the whole time and making it impossible to see over her hair.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"&gt;Overall, I learned a few things. 1. Skip Bingo....FOREVER &amp;nbsp;2. Don't talk, laugh, or breath when a game has started and lastly &amp;nbsp;3. Bingo was named after a dog right? (Remember? BINGO was his name-Ohh) I guess I will never understand why people go with their last dollar just depending on colored dots...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"&gt;Butttt, &amp;nbsp;all the people are very amusing maybe a little mean and too serious but hey, spending time with my mommy (even when shes marking all of my numbers making me very frustrated) is worth it! Awweeeee..&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"&gt;Till next time,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"&gt;Valerie Orta&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9184063425553065385-4255681436926071316?l=bloggingval.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bloggingval.blogspot.com/feeds/4255681436926071316/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bloggingval.blogspot.com/2011/06/oh-dauber.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9184063425553065385/posts/default/4255681436926071316'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9184063425553065385/posts/default/4255681436926071316'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bloggingval.blogspot.com/2011/06/oh-dauber.html' title='Oh Dauber!'/><author><name>valblogs</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14054195870499273714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JtnqOFzVs9I/TgaPPtnECiI/AAAAAAAAAAc/Fgm0yp1Bsq8/s220/1blogger.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-R5K6PXXTYVI/TglR3rS9sbI/AAAAAAAAAA4/zDWZQ6S_kWI/s72-c/3515836-senior-women-playing-bingo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9184063425553065385.post-3164978579558134772</id><published>2011-06-25T20:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-25T20:35:04.808-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Newbie to Blogging</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-size: large;"&gt;Hey Everyone!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;I created a blog!! &lt;/b&gt;(Yes, you can be scared)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;b style="background-color: white;"&gt;The reason being is so I can keep what I call my&amp;nbsp;virtual public diary (what's the point of writing things that no one will ever read?)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I want to share with everyone things that are happening around me.
