I just turned 20 bucks into 120 (and 16 cents) eta: playing penny slots
Woot! I want to gamble SO BAD. Last week's This American Life about blackjack did not help.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do not know this show. Is that the new thing-- Broadway to TeeVee?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I went to a casino with my Mom a couple months back. Even though I walked out with more $ than I came with, I decided that losing money was far more unpleasant than winning was.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think that's a key rule, actually.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Jesse, we Ned to go to Vegas together!
Though maybe I should stick to Reno. Between penny slots and cheap blackjack, I am up about $250 after my first day here.

Sad now. Nut shot guy got banned from IO9 for trolling, so I may never hear the truths straight from his keyboard...

I enjoy going to Wendover, Nevada, the cut-rate gambling den that has daily buses from the Salt Lake area. I generally come back with as much money as I went out with. I'm pretty good at $5 blackjack.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

OK, Lee! Although the next time I'm going is in August with my usual group of women, and the flights are looking really expensive, which puts a definite damper on my desire to go to Vegas all the time. :(
I do not know this show. Is that the new thing-- Broadway to TeeVee?
Yes. Although Smash is actually about Broadway, and all the Broadway stars have the non-performer roles, which is weird. But it really is a ton of Broadway people.
Also, Audra McDonald was on Private Practice for years.

Because books.
Lee, gambling queen! I'm too chicken to play for long. Especially long enough to win anything but my money back.
Sophia, I could have sworn you were watching Smash. I think you'd like it, although it does get soapy more often than not.
