Do you treat yourself after a good month? I do.

The first of every month I add up all the results from my different sites. I include all bonuses and you know what. If I surpass my monthly goal, it's time to begin preparations for the "Good Month Dinner". "Who's on the guest list?" you might ask. Me. That's all. Time to go shopping.

My local grocery store has a mediterranean olive bar. I grab one of those plastic platters and load it up with the following: Giant pimento stuffed green olives, garlic marinated mushrooms, roasted marinated tomatoes, small pieces of fresh mozzerella, & finally artichoke salad.

I head over to the meat section and grab a well marbled prime rib steak. This will accompany the lobster tail that is thawing in the fridge at home. I go grab some kind of well aged or exotic flavored cheese and I'm outta there. Time to go next door to the liquor store. I head for the wine isle. I choose a local sweet red cause that's my favorite.

I get home and inform my wife that is Good Month Dinner day. She asks me how I did and I tell her. She says "Good job babe" and it's off to the kitchen I go.

The lobster tail and prime rib go into the broiler, while I get the side dishes & cheese on the table & get the butter melting on the stove. I pour myself a glass of wine & a glass of milk ( I always have milk with dinner), and when the food is ready it's just me and my feast.

As I'm chowin' I reflect on what I need to work on in my game, and evaluate my strengths and weaknesses, and bankroll vs. the limits I'm playing.

Damn, after writing this it seems more like a ritual or ceremony than a reward. Anyone else treat themselves after a good month?
