my self-inflicted panopticon failed.

up for the weekend


music: Crystals - "then he kissed me"
volume: 17


heh heh, so we just got back from atlantic citya nd i have some mild allergic reaction to shrimp for some reason.. that's never happened before. either way, i left with $100 in my wallet for EVERYTHING....gambling, food, gas, hotel. i hit it pretty big on the slots and came home with $180 in my wallet....after paying for everything too!

it's actually pretty sad considering 'hit it pretty big' meant winning $200 on ONE pull on the slots. i was psyched. 800 quarters is a shitloada' quarters man. but i kept going back and slowly it dwindled down. i think i spent maybe 40-50 bucks on stuff other than gambling, so i lost 70 of it back that i could've walked away with, whatever. i came back with more than i went with...so it's kind of like getting free food, free sleep, free fun, and then some. shweet.

i never even got to the poker tables. i was winning on slots all night...going up 50 bucks and down 20 or so....and then when i hit it big i'm like...hell...why should i play poker when this is working? i also hadn't even played poker witda boys in quite a while so i wasn't really 'in the zone' and didn't wanna risk it. i've also spent LOT of money this weekend....i wasn't planning on losing more.

i started just lending my money to some of the other peeps we were with (dave, liu, chang, sai, judy, raj, don, rubes) so that i wouldn't spend it...worked out nicely (i still have to collect, though, but at least i didn't gamble it : ) next time, next time...when my wallet isn't bleeding from a halloween party. i definitely like gambling....but right now i'm just a little too tight with my money (mostly 'cause i really don't care about it most of the time and end up spending way too much).

AND WE STILL HAVE ANOTHER DAY OF VACATION!!!!...god knows i should work some....or rest some...but i'll probably end up drinking instead.



talk to me
