Let's see. Last weekend I played poker on Sunday at Cherokee Casino. It was one of their "special" tournaments..higher than usual buy-ins. I was in a tournament of 77 and finished 34th, beaten by a suckout flush over my made flush on the flop. Part of that was my fault. I bet too little after the flop, and the guy that called couldn't have put me on the flush and had many draws to make a hand. Unfortunately for me, the flush was one of them and he made it on the turn. What can you do. I knew going in if I was going to lose, I was going to take a bad beat to make it happen. Sure enough, it did.
The work week was par for the course. Had quite a few meetings, and actually had to miss one because an earlier one ran over and I had work to catch up on. I didn't miss much though. I was able to be filled in by my CFR, so that was good.
Yesterday, Anthony and I mowed most of the back lawn. It was getting dark and the mower ran out of gas, so we quit for the night. Today, I played in the same type tournament I did last Sunday. This time there were only 34 players, and I finished in 17th place. Caught KK under the gun, raised, got a caller, then someone else went all in. I knew what he had, but called anyway. Sure enough, I was facing AA. There was a 3rd caller and she had K6 suited, so I had one out. Of course, it didn't hit, the AA tripled up, and I was done. Ah well. Such is life. But now poker is out of my system for awhile, so it will keep me from getting bored with something I enjoy doing, but can't do very often due to my limited bankroll. Besides, have too many plans for Christmas shopping, so have to start saving now.
That's about it. TTFN!

Busy weekend...
Came home today after working 9 hours, relaxed a bit then mowed the front lawn. Was going to mow the backyard also, but I'm old! I'm tired! It will wait. Tomorrow morning I have to go into the office. Well, I don't HAVE to go in, but I can do my work easier with 2 monitors and a full keyboard. There is an ice cream promotion shipping next week, and they need ship withs. That's my job. Hopefully it won't take me but a couple of hours. And there's no set time I have to go in, it's whenever I wake up and go. Then I get to come home and relax (maybe mow the back lawn). Anthony has a black/gold student athlete thing at 6pm which I have to take him to, and stay for. Hopefully that gets done early, but I know for a fact it won't. Sunday afternoon I'm playing poker. There is a tournament at a local casino that I'm planning on playing in. Sunday night is WWE Summerslam. Good thing for DVR's because I'm taping it, hoping that I am not home in time for the start. Think about it asshole! If I'm home early, I fucking LOST in the tournament. Is that what you want? Then fuck off! Your opinion obviously means shit to me anyway, so what the fuck do I care what you think?

Yo!
What's up everyone? Haven't "blogged" in a few days so thought I'd put something here. Actually haven't been doing much on the internet lately. Removed over 60 people from my Facebook friends list last week (anyone noticed yet? LOL! nope!) and haven't been doing much at all otherwise. Counting down until August 23rd, when I am planning on playing in a poker tournament at Cherokee in Siloam Springs OK.
Bill Engvall is performing locally here tonight, but we couldn't go. Between Ann working until 6pm and the cheapest seats just a bit more than we would hope to spend, we are home. Tried to win tickets from a local radio station but didn't, so that idea was shot to shit.
Well, that's about it. I'm in a fuck-it-all mood, and I've only concerned myself with my immediate family (wife and son) which is fucking GREAT so I'm more than content. Bye!
