Friday Night, or actually very early Saturday morning...
Just a couple quick things before I go to bed:
1 - Finished second in our home game. I'm horribly unhappy with the way I played heads-up, but the cards did go ice cold (no Kings, no Aces, no pairs) for quite a long time. But that's no excuse. It's because I'm a big pussy wimp. I lost pushing all-in with QTo after a raise from the guy I was playing against. We were folding left and right, so any raise was a signal of some sort. It was less "dumb play," and more "Fuck it, I'm done."
And if you were to guess where I was in chip count, you wouldn't have figured it to be something like 60/40. That game was winnable, and I did something dumb. Grrr... JS got off the schnide with his victory tonight. He needed that, and played good cards. We've been playing home games at least twice monthly for over a year now, and when we started, JS and I were the ones who "got it" first. None of the others, initially, dove in and just practiced and read up, so we had a nice advantage. He has been through a hellish cold streak at the game, so it's great to see him win. If I can't, at any rate.
2 - I saw David Sedaris on Letterman, and he wasn't who I pictured when I read his book. I mean, it's not the "gay thing," because I've read some of his stuff, and you can't miss it. I don't know... I'm just going to be hearing a different voice in my head next time I pick up a book of his. I'm not sure that's a good thing.
3 - I don't flip around on the TV as much as I used to, thanks to TiVo. If you don't turn channels (which resets the recording buffer), you can rewind live TV.
I haven't yet found a good reason to rewind live TV. I'm sure it exists, and I'm afraid I'm going to miss it. So I don't turn channels.
4 - I'm going to make an early guarantee that Flavor Flav in the "Surreal World" house will result in at least one truly memorable moment in reality TV history. This is why TiVo was built, so you don't have to just tell your kids you were there when Flav was the first contestant in reality TV history to get busted for crack possession.
5 - Happy 18th to Lindsey Lohan. Lindsey, if you're reading this, I'd like to get to know who you are, not just use for your body.
--cough--
That was just in case she stumbles here Googling herself. It's a lot less creepy a way to attract a famous actress than this site, which you should seriously spend a few minutes clicking through. If I were Kathleen Robertson, and I Googled myself, this would be link number one at the top of the page. And I'd be mildly frightened.
Must get some rest - big multi ahead of me tomorrow. Must. Beat. Pauly...
