i see you reading my blog...

seriously though I've gotten like 15-25 hits more the last few days than normal. Who's out there reading? I mostly started this as a sort of journal to chronicle these last few years so I'd have something to look back on in the future. But I always think it's great if someone finds it interesting or even if it just gives them something to do while they are killing 5 minutes at work or school. So if you're out there reading let me know. Become a follower, link me to your google reader, and post in the comments section. If you have any questions for me or just want to tell me what a lousy writer I am that is cool as well. If you have any pointers for photography, want to know what rap lyrics I'm referencing, or whatever let me know.

finished about 1600th in the stars sunday million yesterday. It was their 40billionth dealth hand celebration so I decided to play (I mostly loathe tournament poker) because first prize was going to be over 1 million. So I played for about 5 hours, outlasted about 35,000 people, and cashed for $600. yay. this hand was fun though:

going to try a new theory tonight and try and do cardio, play a session, then lift, and then play a late session. For the most part I've been starting my days with lifting and cardio but a little research on my part has determined that my focus and mental stamina is probably hurt by doing fatiguing workouts beforehand. So I'm going to try and mix things up today and see if it helps me get in more hands.
