I try my best not to look at it that way or else it might turn me off gambling when it's such a good/paying hobby in the long run (it's not for everyone tho lol) But like $600 is a bit more than my weekly pay (after taxes are taken) so it's kinda like why tf did I even work last week then But it's all a risk regardless, just hoping for those pay days And luckily/hopefully I don't/won't lose $600 all the time. I am starting to risk a bit much atm tho but I will cool it if I start going on a bad streak. I really hope I'm back on track today tho, even if it's just like a $50 profit but going for the BIG $ YOLO Also I think the money balance is a lil different here like ~$8.50/hr is min wage and in most areas around the states it's higher (like around $10ish here) but it all does vary.

Btw do you not like most fruit at all or is it juices specifically? Eating some watermelon rn, my absolute FAVE fruit

There's a little difference but I don't really know if I can explain it accurately it's just basically parkways are faster to travel. More open road for miles (with tolls usually), while highways can have intersections & stores etc. around (oh and no lights on the parkway but they can be on the highway)

Sksk Nascar is car racing. It tends to be BIG/popular in the south (I feel like I always say that, there's just so many things that people love in the south more than up north nnn although there's prob stuff that's big here that people down south are like "that's a lot bigger up north" ). I can actually watch on TV so should be fun to watch just to root for Elliott & the Busch's

Ahhh the way I lose like $30-50 basically any time I lose in gambling and you'd be so pissed for days, damn Tbf I'm a bit duuumb/wild/mental with the way I gamble when I don't even have that high of a paying job. I'm just hooked & I like winning/trying to win $ Yessss @ you getting that much closer to even, keep it going

Eh I like almost any juice whether it's on its own or with vodka/alcohol I guess I'd say just a fruit punch / strawberry / or a tropical blend would be best. Apple juice is solid but I've never mixed it with alcohol / idk if that's a thing really. And OJ is classic/great with vodka but I'm not the biiiggest fan of it on its own.

Just ****ed around with some Nascar betting which I also don't know anything about. You got me in the mood with the whole 'racing' from the horses lol Hopefully it pays off tho

Yeah I might try it again randomly, I shall see. But yup you're pretty right about that and vodka is easily the best + just mixes sooo well too (with JUICES tho )

Ohhh lol depends how much more it is but I'd prob be one of those same dumb people tho Like sometimes it's possible to take another route that'll take longer by car & I'll just take the parkway instead anyway for the ~$0.75-$1.50 price. I actually did that for work every day too but that REALLY saves time like a 25 min drive vs. 45 min. But when the buses are just as quick/faster over there then that's really pointless + wasting gas

Ehhh it's def still a big deal to me tho I do think I feel the same way about a ~$50-100 loss as you do $5 tho. Like I'm still mad at that too but it happens and I can accept it afterwards. That $30 roulette loss you had is prob the equivalent of when I lose into the multi-$100's for me. Like I'd still be MAD about -$600 if I wasn't winning a ton rn (and I still was mad now anyway lol but got over it fairly quickly)

So true it's crazy how realistic some dreams are! Freaks me out sometimes when I wake up realizing it was just a dream

Yeah but I don't really remember tequila. Like I was actually just thinking during that last wall post when I last had it & then I could only remember taking a bunch of tequila shots when I was muuuch younger. All I can really remember was a very strong burn/taste but that it really did the trick I've prob had it other times too in some way like once or twice more but yeah I'm not really a fan, not something I ever go for. Nnn yeah I love how it's so big in the South / in country music And definitely true, I think poker is the toughest form of gambling to truly understand and learn fully tbh.

Lol I have no clue what a congestion charge is but maybe it's just slipping my mind.

Looool I get you and I'm pretty sure I was that way the first time / few times I lost like hundreds in a day but winning $ eases the pain for when you lose Like it's just all part of the gamble and I'm winning big atm so besides some initial anger I'm not too mad when I realize how well things have been going lately

Lmao @ the betting entering your dreams too Yeah I've definitely had gambling-related dreams before too. I always rather wake up from losing dreams than winning tho, too disappointing the other way

Nnnn tequila ALWAYS grows on girls, they always end up loving it Ahhh I feel like me not getting these exchange bets is like you not getting poker fully & like the 'point spread' etc. Like those are so easy for me to understand cause I'm so used to them but 'exchange betting' is prob easy as well but I've never seen it and it's just NOT clicking with me

Omg do you not know tolls? Are they not in the UK or are you just not familiar with them having not drove? Are there highways/parkways over there I'm guessing? Tolls are like the "pay to pass here" points on the parkway, they just come up every so often.. kinda for no reason it's just like you gotta pay it to get to an area you need to go

And ty
