sometimes i get mean

since i can remember i have always had the problem of taking games far to seriously. i guess you could say that i get a little competitive. this was always fine in playing sports because everyone gets a little bit out of control. recently, i have really been noticing that i get really worked up in any sort of game where someone will eventually end up the winner. cards, bowling, board games, and pool are always problems.

well things have finally gone too far. last night i was playing a "friendly" game of pool at Arnie's with my good friends laura and sarah. laura sucks at pool so she never seems to phase me, but before long i found myself screaming at sarah. i am not exactly sure what causes this to happen. maybe it is the beer talking, or the fact that she cheats, or maybe it is because i was loosing. whatever the reason, i think that i really need some help. do any of the rest of you with a similar problem have any advice?

i end with this. laura i am sorry that you had to suffer through that entire experience, but if you ever say that i am a "sucky, shoddy pool player" again i might have to punch you in the face. sarah i am sorry that i was such a meany, but i have to say, cheaters never win, and i really did win that game!
