I love my job. No matter how much I whine about it, I love teaching; and the staff and the students are incredible. That said, I also really, really, really love the holidays i.e. March Break.
My March Break started on Friday, and I celebrated by a few cocktails with a few colleagues, followed by a number of losses on the online poker tables once I got home. Sigh. I believe I've already established that martinis and poker don't mix, or not unless the rest of the table is drinking too.
Saturday was spent out of town at Karen + Eugene's. Now there was no poker here; but there was amazing conversations, killer raspberry cosmos, and the best steak I have ever eaten! You guys rock! Saturday night kinda slipped into Sunday night, and made my way home on Monday, had a nap, and played some more online poker, were I made up for Friday's losses. I so love fishing in the low level ring games...I was up over $30 in about 30 minutes.
And tonight was the Monday night game at Taylor and Tawny's where, now brace yourself for this, I came in second in both games!!! In the money...TWICE! Insert much "woohoo"-ing here.
So on the poker front, my March Break is going well (the other fronts...well...this isn't that kind of blog, thank god).

I understand that you're upset, but if you ever EVER post something along the lines of "alcohol and poker do not mix" again, I am not sure we can still be friends.
Sorry Garth, I should clarify...
Poker and alcohol and WINNING doesn't mix, unless the rest of the table is drinking too *grin.
