It has already been established thatI am a loser but I feel like I've truly lowered the bar this time.
No kidding. Let me tell you what I did last night in Reno. (Is there an emoticon for blushing and rolling eyes at the same time?)
We were staying at Harrah's.
We were pretty tired, but it seemed crazy to stay at a casino and not gamble at all.
I needed to get some money so I went to the ATM. I figured I would give myself a $40 budget. We were only planning on being down in the casino for about an hour so it seemed reasonable. My reasoning was that I would get $60 out of the bank machine so I would have some cash the next day.
I was getting the money out of the machine and at the same time I was having a conversation with Devra and Meagan about where we wanted to go lose our money.
I looked down and there were several bills coming out of the machines. Several one hundred dollar bills.
Take five moms, give them a Chevy Tahoe Hybrid SUV, add wireless internet access in the vehicle, a GPS system, cutting-edge cameras and video recording technology, video games, music, gasoline, hotel stays, food, mainstream media covering the road trip on the internet & television - and see what happens as these hilarious and irreverent women drive coast to cost, picking up their fellow SV Moms Group Contributors and blogging it all on the road.....
