Ok, so I haven't really been on Mindsay lately. Most of you know, I've been using Facebook and Twitter heavily to stay in contact with friends and family members. Many of my online-friends in Facebook and Twitter are most likely the same people I met here in Mindsay. Thank you!
On my birthday, two months ago, I purchased a new phone, the "
Palm Pre". It does nearly everything I've always wanted a phone to do...... well... the only thing it currently doesn't let me do:
Log into Mindsay. That's ok... It's the least of my concern. :p
I've been keeping myself
busy,
productive, and
creative lately. And at the same time, I've developed a lifestyle I never knew I would ever end up having. My work schedule has been easier and steady lately, since I've been getting home from work a lot earlier.
So, I'm sure those of you who still keep in touch with me on
Twitter and
Facebook know, I am now officially an
"amateur poker player". When I said "
keeping myself busy", poker has been one of them. Not only am I known in just one or two sports bars, I am recognized as a cunning and tricky "card shark" all over Houston, TX and surrounding cities. They used to call me Roger. But now, they have sorta coined a nickname for me:
Hot Sauce. Even when I laid low from the poker scene during August and October, I always qualified for the City Championship events. Here are a few expected events that I will be attending:
- Wednesday, November 11 @ Fox & Hound South, Houston, TX: October City Championship
- Sunday, November 15 @ B.B. Wolf's, Stafford, TX: Quarterly Regional Hold'em Poker Championship
There's another thing that's been keeping me busy. But that's for a friends-only entry. :) :) :) :) ;) <3
And slowly, I am drifting from the poker tables to the pool tables. Again, not my choice, but I seem to be getting into that, too.
But I choose not to forget my guitar. I have been picking it up lately, singing these songs of freedom, it's all I've ever had; redemption songs. Thank you Bob Marley! I am slowly emancipating myself from mental slavery.
Oh, and couple more things:Wordpress (
http://callmeroger.wordpress.com): I have one. I don't expect all of you to check it out. But it is dedicated specifically for my poker life (statistics, wins, losses, records). But if you have the time and if it isn't so much to ask, I'd like to hear your opinion on the simple and humble template design. How does it look? :)
And for the "
Mindsay Reunion Blog Tour", I will be responding to the comments, and I will be commenting and replying on yours tomorrow. Thanks!
p.s. After writing this entry, I just might stay here in Mindsay a bit longer. :)
