I want to turn off my computer and put it in a closet, but I can't because I am working on some things which provide me a second source of income. I made it thru today without stopping and making a deposit in my account or hanging out for an hour or two, but it is really getting hard. Right now, at this moment, I am jonesing worse then I think I ever have. I wanna go buy tomorrows DRF and get to work.

It dosen't help that I am working 4am - 12:30pm for the next couple of weeks. Too much time during the day. I can't play golf, I have a physical issue that prevents it. I am financially strapped for the next 2 or 3 weeks due to an unexpected bill. Sorry, this is falling into the too much info category.

I went to Blockbuster and rented a bunch of movies. I went to the grocery store and purchased all kinds of food to cook.

I keep thinking, what is wrong with a little $18, $24 Pick 3 but I know better.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
For me I really dont JONES. I play when I have the time. The track is the least of my concerns throughout the day. I have a wonderful wife, great children, homework now to help with etc etc so I have plenty to keep me busy. Plus I hate playing the ponies unless I am at the track. There is just something about being at the track for me. But if I was you I would get some sort of hobby. Maybe do some volunteer work, maybe take some college classes, maybe start a project like building a birdhouse or stuff to occupy your time. And idle mind for an addicted person is a recipe for disaster. You have to come up with something that gives you the rush you need to relax your mind.
