I think it should be called BINGLOW!
Anyhoo... Hick said that on Tuesday, the Senior Center was going to the public library to play Black Light Bingo. It's half a block up the street, and one block down from the Senior Center. I asked Hick if they were expected to walk.
"I don't know. But I'm driving."
Heh, heh. The parking there probably put him farther away than just walking from the Senior Center. There's no parking lot. It used to be the building where I worked at the unemployment office. That parking lot has been taken over by the main post office, which is just behind it.
Anyhoo... Hick sent me a picture of the event:
Oh, look! Everyone is so happy!
Anyhoo... I asked Hick if he won a "price."
"Yeah. We had the choice of a book or a snack."
Heh, heh. I'm sure you already know what Hick chose! It was an individual pack of Oreos. By the time I found out, Hick had already eaten them.
Hick also went to play bar bingo later that evening. Didn't win a thing there. But I'm sure you knew that, too.
Fun times. Have you ever played bingo and won? That would really bother Hick.
ReplyDeleteHeh, heh! You're right. That WOULD really bother Hick. But I don't play bingo. My grandma used to (Mom's mom), and won all the time. To the point family members wondered if she might have found a way to cheat!
DeleteBig decision but I'd take the snack too:)
ReplyDeleteDepends on the book. Hick said they were getting rid of some books. Even though I've only seen him read two books in all the time we've been married.
DeleteBlackout Bingo looks rather weird.
ReplyDeleteStill bingo, no matter what the lighting.
DeleteOops, I meant Black Light Bingo. Still looks weird.
ReplyDeleteApparently the library hosts it a couple times a month. They recently had a version for parents and kids.
DeleteI would have chosen the book because they last far longer than a package of cookies.
ReplyDeleteYeah, even if Hick decided to use the book as a doorstop!
DeleteMy son hated bingo because he never, ever won anything at the school carnivals while I and his two sisters won. He preferred a cake walk where he could be active, plan his moves, and win a cake. He won seven cakes at one carnival at the cake walk.
ReplyDeleteDidn't you say Hick was diabetic?
That's a lot of cakes! Yes, I've mentioned that about Hick many times.
