I've done that hundreds of times to play poker, what's the diff if someone else is involved or not.<br/><br/>Hope you won big. Yeah what’s the problem with driving down to AC alone, I don’t get it.

ATL-Tunica is 6:30. Going there yourself is like making the Kessel run. Is it degeneracy or knowing yourself? ATL-Tunica is 6:30. Going there yourself is like making the Kessel run.

That's not an option if you get motion sickness, I guess... unless you take some Dramamine (is that what it's called?) or something.<br/><br/>There's no reason to always be working, and if it's something you'd enjoy that doesn't harm anyone else, then you might regret not going through with it. Use the time to relax (and you've mentioned you can be introverted, so you might not mind the alone time-- outside the apartment) and hopefully have a good time...<br/><br/>Blah. ;)<br/><br/>gl yo Read a book on the bus… maybe something classic, and perhaps meaningful?

Blah. ;)

Easy solution. Choke back an entire fatty to yourself before you get on the bus. Save another one for the ride back.

On the way there, focus on poker.

On the way back, don’t focus on anything but the wad of cash in your pocket.

I agree with the above – work hard, play hard… and smoke hard… because UncleChuck said so.

I thought this was one of those introspection, no comments posts. Guess I was wrong. <br/><br/>Some people focus on the "pathetic" part, and while I definitely mentioned it, the real thing holding me back is probably laziness. That, and the vague concern of, "what if something happens to me in AC?" But all of the comments made me realize that I should just pull the trigger and take the day trip. Thanks guys. Yowzas!

You have already acknowledged your non-degenerate side by having this conversation with us and yourself. You work hard. You deserve to play hard. Now, get yourself to AC and kick some poker ass already. Jordan, go for it. You have already acknowledged your non-degenerate side by having this conversation with us and yourself. You work hard.

Not like you're going to be at the same table as anyone else anyway.
