Preach on, brother.
A couple of drivelish lunchtime thoughts. Let's eat.
Had a very solid session at Party last night, ending way up. It would have been even better, to the point of being my best ever, if only I hadn't had those Aces cracked by 76s late in the evening. But still, no complaints. It's been a wild ride the last few days - up on Friday, way down on Saturday, killed again early on Sunday before getting the day's losses back and a bit more in two hands. Back up last night.
It's a strange game.
On the subject of poker, I have discovered a leak in my game.
Lunch.
Really. Lunch.
It turns out that lunch sessions are a significant loser for me. Nothing gigantic, just steady losses of 4, 5, 10 BB. There are a couple small wins, but the trend is definitely negative. I don't know if it's better competition, that I'm limited to 30-40 minutes, or what. But whatever it is, I would be ahead of the game if I just let it go and only played at night and on the weekends. I think I need to do that. It's only been a couple weeks since I've been back to playing, so I don't think it'll be too hard to stop.
As I was leaving to go to lunch, I saw a kid skateboarding through the parking lot. My thoughts, in roughly the order they came up: Isn't this a school day? Who the f skateboards in March when it's 30 degrees and flurrying? What happens if you hit a patch of ice on a skateboard? How is it that I got to be middle aged and cranky already?
Is it really only Tuesday?

I think it's spring break, hence the kid on the board. And I don't think min raises make the baby jesus cry... I think it's meals that don't feature some cheese/tomato/bread holy trinity combination.
I see you're on the Vegas list... you going to stop playing coy and just own up to having booked it already?
Spring break is usually the first week in April for the K-12 crowd, so I don't think that's it. I'm thinking that it's more likely a combination of working parents, a looming chemistry test and a faked episode of whooping cough or something. Who hasn't done that?
As for Vegas, I emailed CJ to at least get on the wait list, but have been waiting to book until there's some idea of how many the Aladdin can accomodate. I'll probably decide to just go anyway, regardless of whether there's a slot in the event... it's Vegas. As long as there's a cheap flight and a cheap room ...
