Iron man and some poker

I actually played a little bit of poker yesterday. Melissa sprained her ankle pretty badly and so I came home from work to take her to the hospital. Luckily, there wasn't anyone in the place so we didn't have to wait all afternoon. She got the little moon boot and some crutches. She wont be able to work for a couple of days but it doesn't seem like anything major. She was doped up on some pills so while she was asleep I put in some hands.

It was the same roller coaster that it has been here lately. I flop a set and bet this guy shoves and I call and he hits a flush draw. I have KK vs A3 he flops a flush draw and we get it in and of course it hits. I ended the session up a buy in but it should have been like 3. I am playing so short rolled currently that I really have to watch myself. I am still so beat down by these morons, why can't I have like 1 month of running really good to get my roll back to where it was? I am just going to plug away, I am thinking actually about short stacking and playing nitty tight, only playing top 10% and playing them very hard. It is not fun, but it might make me money faster.

I went and saw Iron man on Friday and it was amazing. The suit looks awesome and the effects are spectacular. Could be the best comic book crossover so far, in my opinion. I think it would be a mistake to not make a sequel, they had to do all the history and that took up a good portion of the movie. Would be good if there was a second were there was more about him actually being Iron man. I need to go see Forbidden Kingdom with Jet Li and Jackie Chan before it gets out of theaters. I have heard its really good. I am also pumped for the new Batman movie but I am not sure when that comes out.

In other news, I bought a monitor today. I have been needing one for quite some time. I am still using the Sony 15" CRT monitor that came with the system. It is, needless to say, time for an upgrade. I was browsing spoofee.com and found a really good price on a 22" Dell monitor only $200. Dell makes a really good monitor so I eagerly purchased. It is on back order but I should have it in like 3 weeks. I will probably buy a new monitor once I get my laptop. Melissa won't use the full 22" so I can get her like a 19" or 20" and she will be happy, and that way when I want to grind I don't have to be limited to the laptop monitor.

I have been watching episodes of Rob and Big on Mtv.com and it is so funny. I didn't think it would be that good but I am hooked on it. I am systematically going through and watching them all on the website.

I think that is it for now, I am pumped to go to Kung-Fu tomorrow since I missed on Wednesday because of the Avett Brothers. Just waiting to hear something from AT&T. That reminds me that I need to do a little looking today, guess I will do that now.

Until later.
