And to you also triple H.
Hey, did I tell you about a filly that's a ringer for the gorgeous chestnut that won the Oaks? Same color, big white blaze. Her name....Shot o' Bourbon.
She's my babe.

I will be at home on the balcony with my laptop, a couple of awesome cigars for the day, and some homemade Mint Juleps.

I really don't have a choice, since Tucson, AZ has NO OTB'S since there is a huge political battle over simulcasting. So, for now, it is either over the computer or drive up to Turf Paradise in Phoenix, which would include $2,093,780,293,402,982 in gas for the 3-hour round trip drive up there.

But, I have nice setup here, and there is never any rain this time of year in desert...

Change of plans...

In the comfort of my living room in High Definition.

At Playwrights' Restaurant/OTB on West 35th St. I'd rather watch it at home but I work until 4:30 and have a theater call at 8:30PM so I'm stuck watching it with a crowd of screaming people who have been drinking since 11AM. My director said I'm not allowed to come to the show drunk. I said I need to drink after seeing the price tag on the bridesmaids' dresses she wants us to get for her wedding next year. ;)

Already went to the OTB and placed my bets, now home with my daughter and watching it on TV. :)

from the comfort of my living room, just like every other year. tony said a while ago that we need to get a small tv, since he just realized that two weeks from now we'd be camping, and he doesn't want me to miss the preakness--such a sweetie!!

large weddings should be declared illegal.

Home! Cozy, happy and with a nice little spread, right down to champagne.

And I plan on taking the phone off the hook at about 5:15. HATE those calls from friends who want to know who I like in the Derby with about 5 MTP.

Here in my office, aka the shrine to His Felinity Cougar II, sitting at my computer and my dedicated TV on the desk. The rest of the family could care less about horse-racing. So I don't bother them, except when I win a bet (computer wagering being legal here in the Bluegrass).
