gotta love T-squared...

So I ended up getting a cat. I was planning on getting two cats, but decided on just one. She is a 1 year old stray with a lot of energy and good looks. Unfortunately she took a liking to my goldfish Jesta as I was worreied about. Jesta was on top of a bookcase in my bedroom and what do you know my new cat had jumped up and stuck her paw and face in the bowl.. I really hap only one option after this but to put the fish on top of the refigerator and on top of a bunch of books. So now my goldfish is near the ceiling in my kitchen.

I named my cat "runs with mice" it is a native american name and it fit perfectly since she was a stray cat and living by her own devices, the native way. She was very skinny when I got her and apparently was not a very good hunter. She has a ton of energy and tends to expend the excess energy at night. She basically just sprints around the apartment at night and knocks shit over and pounces on her jingly toys. She was waking me up at like 3 or 5 in then morning with her toys so I have decided to hide them at night and I am trying to keep her up during the day so that she is no longer nocturanal/


runs with mice is a great cat though and she is the best.

Lets see what else..
I have been working 10 hours per week just cleaning shit up. I have worked many a job and most have been menial labor intensive stuff. I had two what some people may call real jobs. These were years ago. These jobs were in the coperate sector, but I could not stand them! I absolutly hated working in an office and have been much happier in more hands on work. i have been an assistand property manger, new accounts clerk at a brokerage, garbage picker, construction laborer, I worked at a soap factory that made soap for prsions... I have done all sorts of shit. I don't have a bachelors degree and so my choices are limited. But I am happy with what I am doing right now.

The poker has been going very well. I am now up to $1500. Remember that I started with $2. I think that it is within the realm of possibilities that I could make a living playing online poker, but as I have sadi before this is an at best shaky proposition and would much rather have this as second income. And with the kind of low-paying, menial work I do this is very much needed. I have started 8-tabling the sngs and think I can make about $4/per table playing the $50 sngs. I was at this level before and it was after a heater. I became very high on myself and started playing every hand and bluffing and making very margianl calls. This is a strategy that is doomed to fail while playing sngs. And I dropped right on down to the $30's fairly quickly. So next time I take the shot at the $50's I will not play with a 'donk High"

I've been going to a gym for a few months now and play in weekly 3 on 3 half court game. When we shot for teams and possesion it was clear that I was the most talented player on the court. We have stuck with the original teams as it is usually a good matchup and the score is close. There is a 350 pound black guy on my team who I was a little worried about originally. I do not mean to sound racist, but african-americans have a higher risk of carivascular disease than the mean population. So it was for this reason that after the teams were chosen and before the first game started I asked if anyone knew CPR.

Unfortunatly the guy took offense and an argument took place. He was righ up in my face saying dont you disrespect me goldy-locks and so on. I have longish hair and it falls down a little) But we have a cemented our diffrences and we are now a friends and teammates. It's funny cuz at first I thought with me being the best palyer why don't he jsut set screens for me, but he is also a very good outside shooter and we are quite the team.

I have some good ideas for my next blog entry- about an injustice system we have. I mean it's like luck of the gene pool if you think about it. What school you go to and such. The inner city has the worst schools and colleges take note of thgis. So no matter how smart you are as a young kid you are not given the consideration of top colleges. The schools in the inner city are shabby and disorganized. I went to a a public high school where a D was equivalent to an A from an inner city school.. This really is how it works. And we wonder why some of these kids trun to selling drugs. Well they got shafted from the get go is why. The suburban wealthy kids make money in a legal way, b/c they are given that oppurtunity. The kid who was raised in the inner city is given no such option. It really isn't fair at all if you think about it. Cuz the rich kids they would do the same thing. If you don't give e veryone an equal oppurtunity than stay the fuk out of their business and how they decide to make teir money is what I say.,

Anyway im up to $1500 on poker and jsut started 8 tabling. I have not noticed any dip in my roi.
