Friday evening short post

It is warm tonight, so I still have the windows open. I am just about ready to go climb over the fence to the race track - I can hear the announcer loud and clear. I am not a gambler and can think of nothing more boring and demoralizing (to me) than a casino, but the ponies are something else. I could just watch them run and not even place a bet (yeah, right). I have 4 more days until I leave, so who knows, I might get there yet. It's just that I hate to go by myself.
