In for a penny... in for a pound....

Idiom: In for a penny, in for a pound


If something is worth doing then it is a case of in for a penny, in for a pound, which means that when gambling or taking a chance, you might as well go the whole way and take all the risks, not just some.
 
 
Now.... I was just told I embody this expression? Yet, I dont fully understand what it means.... and Im wishing it meant something more along the lines of... "Gee Kate, We'd like to give you some time off"  But for some reason. And while I don't fully understand what it means.... Im guessing my latter hope is not the case. 
Alas, that's all she wrote as I await our "Mass of the Holy Spirit"... I hope I don't fall asleep!
