Luck was a lady tonight
Today wasn't a bad day at work, though there's increased enforcement and paranoia regarding internet use. So, that means less surfing for me, and, if you haven't noticed, no posting on livejournal during the friggin' day.
It peeves me, for, if you want employees to linger around and work harder, you'll let them play harder, too.
Their loss.
I worked out today, it felt great, and did wonders for my back. I did cardio plus abs, plus weights to work on the back.
After ye olde gym, I went to Binky's house for Poker night with zee boyz. We took turns playing Tony Hawke's 2x. The young vintner's girlfriend hasn't shown up in a while. I guess she doesn't enjoy poker. Which makes me the sole source of estrogen during the evening.
Tonight's poker experience was magical. I put in $20, for I had no smaller bills, and came away with $72. I could do no wrong. Even when playing recklessly. When whoever was dealer called for wild cards, I would almost always get a bunch of wild cards with which to make a decent hand. I managed to get several straights, a flush, several four of a kinds, several 5 of a kinds. It was ludicrous. The young vintner still owes me twelve bucks. So, in my poker jar, I have 150 smackers in my trusty poker jar, thirty of which composes my original investment into the game. Not bad. Not bad at all.
After the game ended, Bink and I talked for a while about numerous issues, among them being the waiting game he is playing with Stanford Medical. Hopefully this week he shall know whether they will take his case.
Now for beddums.

Vintner's g/f isn't showing up cuz she owes you money, maybe?
Hope Binky gets good news--got my fingers crossed for both of you. Let me know how it turns out. And, yes, I have noticed the slimmer postings from you. Are they afraid that some Big Company Secret will escape during the hours of 8 to 5? What's to say it can't escape at 6? Fucking mind-set of corporations. They are so Cro-Magnon.
Re:
The young vintner's gf doesn't owe me money, but I somehow think she's just not interested in the game, and won't tell her bf that up front.

Fair amount of that in CA, huh?
