spicy porkAfter work yesterday, and after my car got an oil change, I laid in bed and decided to take a nap. I didn't plan on sleeping for too long, knowing that I have two poker tournaments to attend. But believe me, no matter how uncomfortable I feel about doing this, I kept the "Mindsay Blog Reunion Tour" in mind.
------------Wait, back up....
All throughout my workday, I felt alive. I felt great. I was having one of those days where I wish it would never end. Suddenly, I knew what to write about for the Mindsay Blog Reunion Tour. It was one of those days where it seems like things were all back in place, for as long as I put God first place. I was grateful for every second of it. I remember beginning my day with thanksgiving, and it trickled down all throughout the day.
Like I said, everything seems to be in place. I haven't had a sip of alcohol since Sunday, and I'd like to continue this for a while. This must be the result of it. However, I have had a great day all throughout the week, rain or shine. I've been sleeping a lot earlier than usual, my Angel has been doing the same, and we are finding out the results to be a lot heathier for the both of us.
While I was getting an oil change, these three girls sat next to me, while I was playing "Card Aces: Hold'em Poker" on my Palm Pre. I have this bad habit of muttering ugly comments when I lose a hand in poker. One of them overheard and responded "Pocket Jacks, only three ways to play them..." and out of instinct, I replied "...all of them are wrong! I know," Then she laughed, because we both knew that the quote is true.
We had a very short conversation until my car was ready and I had to go. I said "Ladies, have a good rest of the day..." The one I was talking to about Civics and Poker, out of instinct, said "Good night! I mean.. Have a good day..." All her friends laughed and I overheard one of them said "We're not in Holiday Inn!" I just smiled, said "Hmmm, Good morning..." as I winked and left. As I was leaving, I kept hearing one of them say "Go get his number... lol" Instead of waiting, I rushed out of there. Sorry ladies, not looking! :P
------------Ok, now we're back to the regular timeline....:
4:00pm Yesterday Afternoon: As I was laying down, I was trying my best to think of something to post. But in reality, I was thinking harder of what "not-to-post". Maybe I am trying to hard and maybe I am thinking too much. Then it happened...
7:00pm Yesterday Evening: ...I woke up. It's ok for me to miss the lame ass poker tournament at Smiley's Sports Bar. The one I really don't want to miss the one at Frank'n'Stein's Bar & Grill. BUT, I still didn't want to get up.
I went downstairs to smoke a cigarette. I feel the energy I had all day, but now I'm just being lazy. I went and checked my phone, and all I got were Twitter notifications from Tweed. I laid my head back down on my pillow, stretched and the next thing I know...
1:00am This Morning: ...what happened? Now I'm really awake. I had dreams, dreams where you would swear that they were real. In my dream, I was happy. I went around town, meeting friends and drinking without getting drunk at all. In my dream, I didn't even think about poker, or computers, or whatever. In my dream, I was still having a good day!
My phone must've been off-the-hook with phone calls, text messages, Twitter updates, emails, and whatever. I got phone calls from numbers I didn't even know about (yes, they were local: 832 and 281 numbers). One of them was an invitation from the poker night that I knew I missed this past 10pm. Damn. Luckily, I wasn't craving chicken strips. LOL
I prepared myself dinner: Rice and canned tuna. Then I worked on my computer for a bit, with the problems I've been having with TweetDeck (it's a Twitter desktop app), and still couldn't get it to work.
It was quiet around the house, and I didn't want to stay on the phone too long, so I decided: Maybe I should get back to my "to-do list" tomorrow instead. I went back to sleep at 4:00am and woke up at 8:00am. I knew I couldn't sleep any more than I already had.
This is probably one of those seasons of my life, where I hybernate most. I should take advantage of it.
The weirdest thing about it: I didn't take any sleeping pills throughout the night, like I normally would. This I gotta say, Today was a Good Day.
Boring huh?
