1 month in...

I've been told that I'm a slacker and that I need to blog more. Heh, I guess that if I miss a few days, I'm missed. I suppose those there are worse things in the world, eh?

I was leaving GRV this morning @ 8am after a session there and it hit me again just how lucky I am to have the life that I do. It's a gorgeous day here in Vegas, supposed to be a high of 93 and not a cloud in the sky. GVR is approximately a 7 min drive (garage to garage) and as I turn onto Pecos, you have a fantastic view of the Strip just ahead and to your left. I mean, it's Monday morning and most of the country is trudging off to their jobs for another week 'working for the man'. And here I am living my dream...

I have a fantastic girlfriend. I live in Las Vegas. my job is one that I truly love and am passionate about, not to mention it's one that I can make plenty of money at. I have great friends and finally, I live in a killer house. Obviously things could get better (make more money, be financially secure for my future, own my house), but these things are all in the works and I plan on having all of those things sooner rather than later.

But today, on a pulchritudinous Monday morning, I'd be hard pressed to think that my life could be better than it is, right now, at this moment.


As for what's been going on w/ me... After my blistering good/fast start, variance has found me some. I've played well in spots, poorly in others, but the poorly spots I think that I have corrected, so that should help out. I really love and appreciate having someone like Assani to be able to bounce ideas off of and talk thru hands, esp. live hands, since he also knows most of the players. Not to mention that I have made a few other 'poker buddies' who I can talk shop with. Couple that with my online fellow co-workers *chuckle*, and I have a pretty solid group in which to talk poker with. That's really an invaluable asset to have at my disposal and I definitely feel like I'm taking full advantage of it.

So like I said, I've cooled off some, but I'm still up a significant amount since I've moved out here a month ago, today. Wow, didn't realize that it's been a month. It surely feels a lot longer than that, but in a good way. I feel so comfortable out here and in the various rooms that I play in. Yeah, I don't see this getting old...ever. :)

Oh, one last note here today. I seem to have some folks out there that don't like seeing a fella succeed in his dreams. What I mean by that is that I have a couple of folks that are attempting to leave some quite derogatory comments here. I guess they just haven't figured out that I have to approve any/all comments before they are put out there for public consumption. I don't mind criticism, but come on people, you really think I'm going to post the drivel you're writing? Tsk tsk.
Like mom used to say, "If you don't have anything nice to say...."
