Recently I had finished with a multi-state
700 mile R/T and lost consciousness ‘behind
the wheel’ on a crowded highway. I survived.
I have lived on society’s fringes for so long.
Adjusting to living a gambling-free existence
is very hard for me. I have been a denizen of
the AP demiworld for a very long time.
I am a Septuagenarian.
My health is seriously compromised.
My brain functions are slipping.
I am a chronic-pain sufferer.
I must make the painful decision to retire
from blackjack and all related activities.
I have numerous (real life) friends who are A.P.’s
and not communicating with them hurts me.
The problem for me is that mentoring card
counters and networking with A P professionals
keeps me involved, and thus prevents me from
fully embracing my avocations so that I can live
through my dotage. Perhaps I can just post here
now and then, with careful editing of course.
