Gonzo Gaming

Triple bar score I just got home from spending the entire afternoon with an old friend up at an Indian casino, wasting money and having fun. Danyell is crazy and I totally love her, especially since she taught me how to really play.

ALWAYS bet max.

Typically I sit at the penny or nickel machines and walk out with the same 20 bucks I walked in with, if not a few dollars more. Sometimes I get a little risky and play more than 5 lines for a few spins, but usually I'm just happy playing the bonus games that pop up occasionally and getting free drinks. But this chick, she's a player. She doesn't just bet max, she bets max max, playing two machines at once. She nearly died when she saw my silly little 3-cent bets, and told me the only way to win anything is to bet it all. I don't really care about winning, but I gave it a try.
It was exciting!
When you win, you win big. And when you lose, well, you lose big. I only lost $60, but for me it was huge. I don't care, I had a really good time.

I honestly don't understand how can people enjoy wasting money. If you're Bill Gates, yeah it would probably be fun, otherwise, NO. Money don't grow on trees.

I found this on the net I thought it would be interesting to share:

"On average, 12 newborns will be given to the wrong parents every day."

Donna, are sure you are who you think you are?

(sorry for consecutive comments)

I'm sure I am who I think I am, but that could explain why my kids are like aliens to me.

I enjoy wasting money when there's a possibilty of doubling or tripling it. Plus, I look at it as spending money on entertainment and escaping the alien invasion in my home. Totally worth losing 60 bucks to get away from teenagers. You'll understand someday.
