Football Season is Coming!!!

Hello all! Ohio State's first game is 8 days away, and I'm super stoked! I can't wait! I'm moving back to the parents house this weekend :-( But it will help me save alot of money for a house or the move to Vegas, whichever I decide to do. It's not so bad because I have a couple good friends who still live around my parents, so I'll get to hang out with them more. The drive to and from work is going to suck though...but I'll live. I still can't stop thinking about Vegas!

I started running this week, and I'm OOS...out of shape! The second time was easier than the first though, so it should be a little easier to swallow in a couple of weeks. It helps me with my self discipline though, which will help me with my poker.

Still absolutely no news on the girlfriend front...haven't had any news on that in well...there's never been any news on that in this blog!! I have my eye on someone, but she can't know. It doesn't really matter though because she is way out of my league. Maybe someday I'll find someone, but it's nice to do whatever I want whenever I want. I'm not sure I'd want to give that up.

My parents just got back from Vegas yesterday on the trip my sister and I bought them. I think they had a really good time, so that makes me happy.

Can't think of anything else important right now, so I'm gonna hit the sack!

My Birthday!

Well, my birthday was yesterday. The big 2-3. I'm starting to feel old. We went out Saturday night for a party at the Lodge Bar, and it was a BLAST! I was drunk by 9:30 because everyone kept buying me shots...I hate shots! Then yesterday since it was actually the day of my birthday we went out for some wings and beer. It was a very good time, and it made me realize how lucky I am to have such great friends. I may not have great looks, but I have a good personality and I'm a good person...I think that's why I have so many awesome friends. The friends that are really close to me are by far some of the best people in the world, but the friends I don't hang out with as much are really good people as well. I truly feel blessed.

This past Saturday I played a co-ed softball tournament with some people at work. It was pretty fun, but we got absolutely SMACKED. We got beat by a combined score of 59-7 in 2 games...how embarrassing! Oh well, I guess it could have been alot worse. Come to think of it, I'm not sure it could have been ANY worse. LOL!
Lately I've been feeling like I have no direction in my life. It seems like my whole life I've always had something to work towards, and right now I can't really think of anything in my life that fits that description. I'm severly lacking direction, and I need to get things straightened out & get some enthusiam back. I've really been sort of bummed lately, but hopefully that'll turn around. Football season is coming up soon, so that should make me feel better and provide something for me to dive into.

Nothing new really on the poker front. Haven't had too much time in the past week to play. I've been up and down, but seem to be losing in limit quite often lately. I still consider myself a beginning limit player, so that's to be expected. Just gets a little frustrating sometimes, but like the old saying goes, "That's Poker".

I don't really have much else to say right now so I'm gonna hit the sack. Til next time.

The Dog Days of Summer

Man, I wish I was there. It's been steamin hot here! I'm really tired of Ohio weather. It's so humid here it's almost unbearable. I can't wait til September and October when it starts to cool off.

In poker news, I got my bankroll over $1,000. That's not really a big deal, since it's been well over that many times before, but it's the first time it's been there since I cashed out a big portion of it a couple months ago. It's just a figure, but I hope I can keep playing well so it can keep rising.

I'm going back to Vegas in December, and my goal is to get the BR over $3,000. I think this is attainable, but challenging also. I would really like to be able to play $10-$20 by spring, but we'll see how things go.

Nothing exciting to report on really. This weekend we're going out for my birthday, so that should be fun. Maybe I'll meet the girl of my dreams! Psych...we know that will never happen. Oh well, girls just cost money anyway!

Until next time, keep grinding it out in the game of life.

It Was A Crazy Game of Poker

Last Sunday I won $200 playing $1-$2 on Bodog. There was one guy on there who was a complete maniac and lost about $240...I got most of it. I won a $91 dollar pot when I hit the nut flush on a 4 way pot that was capped on every street. I really don't know what these people were thinking.

One day last week my friends and I got bored, so we decided ot take some retarded pictures. Here are a few of them:


If you're that interested, you can check these out with the rest of my pictures with the link to the right.

Really not all that much to report, so I'll let ya go. I'm gonna post again sometime this week probably, so until then...dont' ya go dyin on me!
