Keeping myself busy

So the Kansas Jayhawks lost last night to Bucknell in the first round. That sucks, but it was bound to happen to us. Thanks to the seniors for all the great times: Wayne Simien, Keith Langford, Aaron Miles, and Michael Lee. It'll be interesting to see what next years freshman class of Micah Downs, Mario Chalmers, and Julian Wright along with transfer Rodrick Stewart can do.

Have also been working on designing a couple website for some people, but I won't link to them as they are no where near finished. And finally, I'm getting ready to leave for Gatlinburg today. Already got directions there, and then from there to the airport so I can leave for Texas. Now the chaos of traveling will begin in around 7 hours.

$25 NL Experiment

So I decided to play some NL poker today, because I got back from being a hair model for my girlfriend at the salon early and had nothing else really to do. I ended up being down a few dollars but it was definitely a different experience then playing limit.

At first I sat at the $25 table and my JJ lost to a 66 flopped set after putting the other guy all in after an 8 high flop. Should have realized I was beat, but I am not a NL expert. So I basically ran down my $25 to $5. Then at the same time I took $15 to a Limit table and ran it down to around $5. So now I had around $20 of my original $50.

I decided to just put it all on the $25 table and whatever happens happens. The best pot I won was a $25 one when I got a full house. But anyways, it was a great learning experience and I still have $50 in my account just to play with. Perhaps one day I can build it up, or lose it.

I’m no quitter

So, awhile ago I withdrew $200 and now have around $50 left on Pokerstars. Really haven't have a desire to play in awhile, but just in case I do I have $50 there. I have kind of pondered just taking $25 of that to a .10/.25 NL game and seeing what I can do, since I just played Limit there, but that's just a thought for now.

Traveling …

This next week is going to be a rather busy one for me, on Saturday to early Monday morning me, my girlfriend, and another couple will be going to stay in a cabin in Gatlinburg. The place is on the water, although it's too cold at this time to do anything in it, has a hot tub, pool table, darts, and wet bar. So we'll basically spend the weekend drinking and relaxing, away from the big city of Knoxville. (sarcasm)

Now we are supposed to be out of the cabin by 11:00, but I have to be at the airport for a 12:10 flight to goto Bandera, TX. And apparently, there are some new regulations about what you can carry-on and so I have to go get some matchbooks because lighters are on the prohibited list now. This doesn't fully goto affect until April 15, but I would rather not have to deal with security if I don't have to.

So I get back from Texas on Thursday night at around 7:00, only to have to get ready to leave again to drive on Friday to Columbus, OH for the Easter weekend. We will be coming back on Monday when finally life will be back to normal for me.

Man I’m tired

Well I bought my new monitor today from Sams Club. It sure opened up a lot of space on my desk now, not sure what to do with it all. (Will probably just end up pilling more crap on it.)

I have to go help out a friend on a job tomorrow in Chattanooga. Won't be doing anything too hard but I'll be earning a couple bucks. Might as well do something since I have the time. Spent the rest of my evening watching the final home game for KU's 4 seniors Aaron Miles, Keith Langford, Michael Lee, and Wayne Simien. They played Kansas State University and although it was never it a blow out I wasn't too worried about the outcome.

edit: Forgot to mention that the Kennel Helper thing didn't work out. After waiting for over half an hour for the person to interview me (with nary an apology once she finally was ready), it just didn't seem like the place I wanted to work. The lady was basically someone I wouldn't want to work for and it almost seemed as if she thought the job was more important that it really was, taking it way more seriously then I thought. She told me to call back on Saturday at 11:00am and needless to say I had a better time sleeping.
