60 Days Before Closing (The time that remains before we have to get out of this house)

31 Days Before Closing (The time that remains before we can move into the new house)

I had oysters again last night. Raw on the half shell with a whole tankard (looked like a pitcher to me) of Shiner Bock beer. Then we went over and ate supper at the Italian restaurant here at the casino. I should have stayed at the bar and had another dozen oysters. Usually the food at the Italian restaurant is better but last night...Does tomato paste mixed with water draw you a picture? This was poured over a bed of overcooked angel hair pasta and covered with equally overcooked seafood. I'm assuming that last night was a fluke because I have eaten there many times in the past and we'll just forget about that unfortunate case of food poisoning I got that one time. Stuffed salmon. Never eat stuffed salmon. Usually their food is great! Maybe we'll eat at the other restaurant tonight.

I'm going to meet my parents for breakfast this morning. Then I've got a hair appointment/spa treatment appointment which is supposed to take three hours away from my gambling time. Fine by me. I figure that the cost of this spa treatment will be a lot less then what I'd spend at the tables.
