It was my birthday. I was at a casino with a bunch of family and friends. I badly wanted to enjoy my birthday with drinking, gambling, and good company, but some family members weren't into gambling and only wanted to "see the sights." Some friends were angry with other friends, and dramatic situations continued to pile up. One friend was impossible to find because they were off playing poker in some casino by themselves. Eventually I snapped and just went to one of the virtual black-jack games and bet a few hundred dollars. I lost it all.
