Watched a troubling movie, then did some baking and yardwork to get my mind away from thinking about it.

No, but my wife has already stated that she’d like to watch it when it comes to streaming, so now I live every day in fear of the next.

It was If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (he posted about it on the movies thread)

I went to bed at midnight, woke up just before 4am and never really fell back asleep, yet I feel pretty good after a busy morning (it’s only 2pm).

If I finish out the day alright, is it possible I only need like four hours of sleep a night to function? I could be so productive!

If you're only gonna get 4h like those old school blue collar bastards, you also have to pound black coffee and smoke ciggs all day.

The tradeoff isn't worth it.

I only had time for one coffee this morning. It’s possible that is partly what has me feeling so good and regulated. Normally, I’d pound 2-3 then feel geeked.

I am not a betting man by any stretch, I had $100 in my draft kings because I thought I could bet the kentucky derby through the app. so I deposited it and went to bet the horses only to find they have a separate app for that. so I downloaded that app and looked any my deposit doesnt carry over so i deposit another 100. long story short on the horses i bet 100 and won 178 dollars.

yesterday leaving the office i went to withdraw the 100 from draft kings and saw they had black jack available. so i play around with that on the ride back to my car (maybe 12 minutes) and turned the 100 into 200. yay me

i get home and do my routine and for about another ten minutes i play some more. on the train i played strictly $1 and $5 hands. at. home I did the same but then changed it up and bet a few $25 hands. once i got it up to $400 i said fuck it and started going $100 hands. I would say all in all out of about 30 hands of black jack i won 20ish. I was able to turn my initial $100 into $801 and withdrew the money and deleting the apps today.

Until a quarter to ten
I saw the strain creep in
He seems distracted
And I know just what is gonna happen next
