Dog Race Night

I mentioned to Juliann when she picked me up that I had never been to the dog track. She said that is something we could do while I was here. The races started at 730 as I found out. I knew nothing about betting on the dogs. I would soon learn a little.


After the nap I took another tums for my indigestion. I felt my hair was a mess and dad looked for a hat for me. The dog track was about 45 minutes away. A dollar a piece to get in, cash only. Juliann got me a hat again cash only. She got some money from Dad. She brought no cash. Luckily I did. I asked one of the people that takes the money for the bets about how and the process. Juliann bought a ticket 1,8 quinella. She had no idea about it. It was her last two dollars, cash. Gave Dad $20 in case he wanted to bet.  He is the smart one of the bunch. I studied a bit then asked the guy more questions got 12 tickets 1,5 quinella. I also got a trifecta on race 5 $30. First race ended and neither of us won. I asked Juliann's favorite numbers 1,3. I bought her tickets for next 6 races 1,3 quinella, $12. $1 beer and hot dog night. 2 beers and 2 hot dogs for me. I actually won a bet and it paid $21. I took that money and reinvested(lol) it on more betting. Me 4,8 quinella next four races and 1,3 quinella for Juliann for the rest of races. That was $20 of the winnings. We are both all in now for the night... They leave with three races left. It is chilly for them and wait for me in car. I stay and place another $6 bet. Nothing else wins. I spent $68 but won $21. I also gave $20 to dad to spend. He still has it in his pocket. He wins.


As mentioned earlier, I had indigestion. I thought I could suffer it through the night it should be over. I had taken two tums throughout the day. Nope. I had a miserable night of burping and trying to sleep. About 430 looked for baking soda. A teaspoon in a little bit of water and boom. Gone. Over. No indigestion. Yay and slept three and a half hours. Felt great, finally.
