Default Dedication or Sickness?
Sitting here at the table with my first cup of coffee feeling as if I went over the card all night in my sleep at 5 in the morning it occured to me. Am I dedicated or sick? Well no time to think about that I need to pace out these races.

Dell, as I was creating my Gulfstream thread an hour ago, I wondered the same thing. But then I just chose not to think about it! Denial is not just a river in Egypt, you know.

What about staying up until 3:00 a.m. playing Australia and then getting back up for Dubai?

Sick...I'm sure of it.

Lets just say we're all really enthusiastic!

Sounds better than sick.

Enthusiastic is from a Greek word meaning "to be filled with the Gods".
May everyone's pockets be filled with $$$!
I very excited myself...it's nice to know I'm not alone thinking 'I might be nuts'.

Same here, went to bed at 2am...tossed and turned about an hour thinking of my wagers, first woke up at 6am, then again at 7...finally said f-it and got up an hour ago. Big days like this drive me crazy! But, it's a good kinda crazy

It's got to be a mix somewhere in between.

Either way, good luck today Dell... I'm leaving for Gainesville right now and am going to miss everything today.
