Dang, It's Hot

Yay! Rejoice! We are finally, after living here for 5-1/2 years, getting central air. Goody, goody. We've had central heat, but have had to use a window unit in the summer. Man, it's too expensive to get the central a/c. But, thanks to the tribe (yes, they can be helpful sometimes, even if it's full of idiots) we were able to get it taken care of this year. It's still hot in here because the guys are still here installing it. Young, sweaty, shirtless guys. Even better! I'm hoping that we sleep cool tonight.
Yesterday morning before I went to work, I went to the casino and cashed in my $300 in chips. I played and lost $40 in about an hour, then went to my bank and deposited $220 in to my checking account. I kept the rest in cash. Tonight when I got off work, I went back there and played a penny machine for about 30 minutes. I was only going to play with $10 and if I lost it I would leave, but if I doubled it I would cash out. And I doubled it and cashed out. Mike keeps teasing me telling me that I'm addicted. I easily could be, I'm not denying that. But, I'm too tight to be addicted. I'd rather spend all my money on something else.
Shael took a ride on the four wheeler earlier and crashed it! When she first wanted to ride it Mike made her wear her motorcycle helmet and she was bitching about it. He told her "helmet, or no riding". I went down the driveway with her once then got off and came in the house. I had gone to the bathroom and I heard one of the shirtless guys tell Mike that she'd turned the 4 wheeler over at the end of the driveway. I finished and rushed outside in time to see her park the 4 wheeler at the house and Mike standing there talking to her. She turned it over and she got her foot caught under it but she was able to push it back up on all four wheels and drive it back to the house. She skinned her knee up and her hands and smashed her foot up pretty good where it got hung up underneath it. Mike knocked on her helmet and we both asked her "Aren't you glad you had that on?" With her adrenaline pumping she was saying that it didn't hurt and that she was fine. Now that she's been in the house for a while, she's starting to complain that this hurts, and that aches. I'm just glad she's okay. I'm also glad that I wasn't on it when she knocked it over. Is that selfish of me?
Shael keeps asking when those guys are going to leave because she needs to fart and doesn't want to do it while they are here in case they happen to walk by when she does it. I was actually thinking the same thing. The hounds are starting to bark and want out, also. As soon as they drive off I'm going to crack a big one then holler out "RELEASE THE HOUNDS!"
