Friday Night……casino night not for me.  Chasing losses….being manipulated by my own mental frenzy of anticipating a "big win"…..did JUST THAT two weeks ago on July 27th, a Friday night.  Was up 3200 @ midnight….by 6 am when they were running the sweepers and the "Garda" van was outside the casino, I was digging in my pockets for dollar bills and change to gas up b4 returning home.  I paid my mortgage today, I got some food (for the animals too)….paid the water company….not in too bad a financial place.  But why doesn’t anyone warn us of the "letdown’" of intelligent actions of not gambling.  I feel very confused by it all….and I HAVE NOT gone home with any winnings in months.  Quite the opposite; I consider it an excellent night if I am only down 100 dollars or so…..Harry, I am trying…..I am NOT gambling today and I DO NOT feel like such a loser…..You Get What You Give
