I Really Shouldn’t Be Upset - Should I?

Last week Saturday I filled up the Jeep at $3.39 a gallon.  Here it is six days later and I've seen stations selling gas for $2.99.  Should I be upset because I put in 10 gallons and could have paid $4 less for those 10 gallons now?  Along the same line, should I be absolutely kicking myself, feeling down in the dumps, on the verge of a clinical depression, about losing $1,000 at the casino on Sunday when I won $1,500 on Saturday?  You'd think I'd be somewhat happy just being up $500 but no, I still feel like I lost $1,000.  I had it in my hands.
 
And then today I looked at my investments.  Years and years of saving crippled in a matter of days.  Looks like I'll have to go back to blowing the wait staff at the Mexican restaurant again.  God I hope those guys have changed their hygiene habits.  Nothing a little sour cream can't cover up but still…
 
Talk about having it in your hands...
