Been Busy Lately...
I know I haven't posted in a while but I've been busy as hell lately. Work got insane around the end of August and hasn't really let up since. As a result, I haven't played a lot of poker or golf since early August. I've also been kinda busy with the new place - purchasing some new furniture and stuff - just trying to make it feel more like a home. I've got a long way to go with that, but I'm making progress. We'll see if Levin Furniture can finally deliver the correct color chair on their third try. I bought 2 brown leather chairs and although they got one of them the right color, they can't seem to get the second one right.
Other than that, I have been able to watch some TV in my free time. There are some good new shows on this fall - heroes is a pretty good show. I don't know exactly how long it will keep my interest, but I've found it interesting so far. Standoff has also grabbed my interest. Studio 60 isn't bad either - very good cast and I have to admit that I have a thing for Amanda Peet - don't know why, I just do. Battlestar Galactica on SciFi another show that I'm horribly addicted to. I know, that's a totally geeky thing to say, but I'm ok with it. It's not the science fiction aspect of it that's drawn me to the show though - the story line and character development has been tremendous. Speaking about story lines, what the hell is up with Lost? I love the show and the characters and the twists and turns the story takes each week, but I must admit that I really have no clue where the writers are going with everything. I suppose that's why I'm so into the show. Geez, you'd think I do nothing but work and watch tv all the time. Thank god for TiVo!
Monday is the next installment of my local WSOP tourney. Played OK last month - didn't make it to the final table though. I wasn't getting cards and almost busted out a couple of times but managed to stay in long enough to earn roughly the same amount of points I had in the previous months. I'm not very confident right now, but I'm not exactly doubting my play either. This month will go a long way to telling what my chances are for the rest of the year.
