I couldn’t sleep from

about 6:30am until I got up about 20 minutes ago. So I thought I’d make a coffee and make a post at the same time.

So much for my first $5 Pro-line ticket. I kind of figured though that Calgary wasn’t going to be swept a season after the shellacking they got from us last Monday. But a $5 bet on a 4 game CFL ticket is a good thing to do. I was hoping to see an Eskimo win last night. I might have stayed but I also wanted to get an early start and beat the crowd. They had 47,000 fans out there last night. Next home game, they’ll have less. But my $3 Proline ticket is still alive thanks to the Stamps win. If this ticket comes through I could win $66 bucks. On a $5 ticket, I could have won $111.15. The games selected on the $5 ticket were Subvere’s picks. He won $155 bucks last weekend. If the Esks won last night, the ticket would still be live and I could still be in the running for the $197. I was even winning on Proline when I started late in the NHL season as well, $10 bucks here and there.

So today I’ve got a 6 hour shift with a half hour break. So it’s actually 5.5 hours. The first half goes by fairly quickly. It’s the 2nd part that kind of drags. I’m not buying a Tim’s breakfast this weekend because I’m trying to not spend any right away. I’m considering paying a visit to Century park casino for a few rounds of Black jack and a beer and then home for a bite to eat and a nap. If I ever get to the casino, that is. Depends on how I feel at 4:30pm this afternoon. .

I’m still working my way through “Dark tide 2” my Star Wars book. I read a little while waiting to go to the game at Stadium. I like going to Eskimo games because they let you bring in outside drinks like pop and stuff through the gates.

Tomorrow its an easy 5 hour shift. Usually when I get to Clairview LRT (Clairview) there’s no buses there and most people that live in the area end up walking home or to whatever nearby. Once that‘s over I get Sunday night and all day Monday and on it goes again Tuesday-Friday. This upcoming Friday 16th I‘m having a “long weekend“ I would have put in 37 hours and I have next Saturday off because of Lodge and I‘m taking Sunday and Monday is an optional day anyway. Anyway, it’s time for a shave and a shower and pack my things up and ready for work, that‘s all for now.
