At 3PM today my whole company goes outside to the parking lot across the street for a little ceremony. We had this morale-building program where if you did something above-and-beyond you got a little pennant to put on your desk. I’m sure your company has dome some similar. What’s a bit different is that one…

After my whining to start off yesterday I did go outside and lay in my hammock. For about five minutes, as it was about 135 degrees and the sun bore down as if God was holding a magnifying glass above me. I stopped over my parents’ house, made myself a nice little lunch, and not…

I just got knocked out on the first hand of a SNG. After one limper I raise with KJ, the limper calls. Flop comes queen high, I make my continuation bet, he calls. The turn gives me an open-ended straight flush draw. I make a big bet, he calls. The river is a brick, I…

I’m home, I’m fed, I’m ready to live-blog the Champions League Final between Arsenal and Barcelona. I think I’ll also play in some cheapy multi-table SNG so I have something to write about in case the game is especially dire. Which I don’t think it’ll be. Just had some fun. Realtor calls last night, wants…
