I just want to confirm that I do actually still grind pokers for a living, despite how it may seem. There is a lad I work with, who always asks how much I'd played the previous week when I go into work, on Monday he said to me "I'm pretty sure your a drug dealer, you never play" LOLz. I think I maybe bit off a bit more than I can chew at the weekend with the alcoholaments as I'm still feeling it today, pathetic I know. Doubt I've ever had a 3 three day hangover before, although I did have a little drink on Sunday, but still. Hoping I'll perk up in an hour or so and get going today. I'm not so much hungover just I have a bit of a pain in my chest and feel a bit shitty and I hate grinding if I'm not feeling 100%.
A daft question, I suspect, Ray, but it bugs me, & I know you won't mind me asking.
"alcoholaments".
Here you are, it's Tuesday midday, & you are still feeling the pain from the weekend's drinking.
Is the gain really worth the pain?
Until I turned 21 - on the very day, in fact - I was a bit silly with alcohol, as most of us were as youngsters.
The penny dropped for me, though, when I realised that for an evening of drunkenness, of which I rarely had any recall, except for memories of serial puking, and how much money I'd wasted on an evening I could not even bloody remember, I suffered up to 2 days of feeling utterly dreadful.
Do you ever address that equation?
This is not "holier than thou" my the way, you have permission to get on my case for my ridiculous habit of smoking cigarettes. Both habits yield varying amounts of pain & gain, neither is necessarily worse/better than the other.
The human mind continues to fascinate.
