Hobbyless

Man. I used to be so fucking good at this blogging shit. Sat my ass down behind the keyboard and voila. A post a day. I think I lost my momentum last summer when I took a month off from Xanga. Or even further back with the advent of my softball career when it seemed like all I did was blog about softball shit. Maybe it was the reintroduction of poker into my life. Damn. Fucking poker.

Prettiest sight of the week. Me with a bandaid under my eye the other day. So who kicked my ass? My favorite 5 year old in the world. He decided he didn't want me to stop carrying him (spoiled brat) so he hung on for dear life to whatever he could reach. In this case my face. It wasn't much of a scratch, just bled. A lot. I went thru 3 bandaids. God, I'm a fucking trooper.

I actually hit 8 rounds at the cages the other night. Oops. There I go. Softball shit again. Seriously though. Going with Michael and Rich keeps me humble. They mash and bash and I go "bing, bing, bing". Humbling I tell you.

Twice this week, on both of my days off from everyones favorite squat of a market, I worked 12 hour + days at the Mortuary. We need better Dr's in this country. If all these people quit dying I'd have a REAL day off.

In better news I been playing my ass of in Poker. Last 3 tourneys I played I came up in the money . $180, $208, and the whopper coming 2nd out of 40 people, $1250. I'm seriously tempted to quit my jobs and get a real one. Playing online poker. Somebody talk me out of that. Otherwise I'l have way more then 7 flags in that Gamblers Anonymous question thing.
Remind to buy a nice set of chips. It's time to set up some games.

On the topic of games, my homeboy is making off with the score of the week. Limited edition green xbox Halo edition with the original version of Halo. $100. I was kinda tempted by it but I don't really play videogames now.

Somebody find me a hobby. My homegirl was questioning my hobbies the other day and all I could come up with was poker and softball. She wouldn't let me count reading since all my reading of late is poker related. Supersystem 2. The Chris Moneymaker biography. Positively 5th Street. Phil Hellmuth's "Bad Beats and Lucky Draws". Shuffle Up and Deal. Notice a theme here?

I'm wide open to suggestions. Butterfly collecting. Import model pic collecting. Something. I've been told softball and poker does not make a well rounded individual. Maybe I'll watch a few episodes of the Season 2 World Poker Tour that I picked up the other day. DVD watching = hobby.
