three years

Hello all.

Three years gamble free as of today.
Thus: be of good cheer: it can be done.
And: thanks to participants here for your support.

In case it’s helpful to anybody, here’s my official “Guard Up” speech. Spoken internally to myself if I get one of those creepy feelings that says “look, you’re doing fine, so obviously it’s safe to give it a little try, might be fun right?”

The loss of money is annoying.
The loss of time is annoying.
The loss of things I would have accomplished in that time is annoying.

They don’t matter.

When I am not making my own choices, because the game dictates what I do next;
When I don’t talk to people, because the game demands attention;
When I lash out in anger, because the game doesn’t want anyone else to get attention;

Then I lose my self.

This DOES matter.

Not worth it for a little fun. Thanks, I think I’ll go { run | lift weights | etc } instead.
