When I was in Vegas last month one of the Casinos was giving this car away as a prize.

You didn’t have to play at the tables for a chance to win, you had to play a slot machine.

So everyday I was there I would play the machine for the car ONCE.

One spin, one chance,  that was it.

It would have been easy to put my money into that machine and play it but that wouldn’t  have been as much  fun.

What was fun was that walk around the block to that Casino to that machine to place my fifty cent bet to see if I would win that beautiful car. I could see myself driving it home, could see myself wearing my pink cat’s eyes sunglasses ( though I knew I’d have to buy the red ones with the white polka dots to match my awesome new car  when I got home.)

I seriously had a good time  trying to win that car every day.

Sad to say there was no  moment of glory, no happy ending,  I  didn’t win the car.

But I did have fun on that walk to the casino. I loved taking that ONE spin ( which when you think about it is EXACTLY how life works…you get one spin right? So enjoy yourself ) 

I bought the new sunglasses anyway.

And yes. Yes they are awesome.
