Again now with the gambling fantasies�the ones where I sit down at a casino blackjack table and clear eight thousand dollars in an afternoon. I don�t know why but it�s always eight thousand dollars and blackjack, which I last played (badly) as a child.
Last night I get to totaling my winnings in the office where they take the taxes out, This is always the climax.
and I ask the lady, Can you pay my back taxes from that terminal? And she�s like, A nice lady tonight.
That�s what we�re here for! So then I�m thinking, Can you make a couple of payments on my credit cards too? This was a disturbing first.
But my resolve starts to waver immediately; (No fair changing the rules!)
before it swerves too far I find myself exclaiming, Stop me! Make me pay my debts! Or better yet�pierce my flesh with rawhide-strung wooden skewers and leave me to dangle over a bowl of smoldering sage.
