The dangers of gambling.

Sun Nov 30, 2008, 6:10 PM
Amazing. I finished going through all the deviations that have been piling up! There were nearly 500 of them, too. So now I can visit DA without feeling guilty about all the art I should have looked at.

WARNING: Major rant
In other news, I must caution you all about gambling on horse races. Not because it's addictive, but because when you make a $12 pentefecta bet - that's the first five horses, and you have to predict which position they'll come in - you will want to kill someone when you get all five horses in not quite the right order, and then see that it would have paid $4701.

Seriously. Do you have any idea how hard it is to even predict the top three horses in a race? Picking five is ridiculous. I'm really good at horse racing - almost every time I go, I end the day up by at least $30. But 5 in order is just too much.

So that was the low point of my Thanksgiving break. But on the plus side, I spent time with my parents, slept in my own bed, and got a new computer. So it all balances out. :)
