I feel better now. It was like I was coming off of Heroin withdrawing from clozaril. Got the flu and everything. I never get sick, it had to be a withdrawal symptom. Nonetheless, I took the last half of March off and lost my Supernova status. So now I'm back to silverstar. Will be no problem getting at least Gold Star though by month's end. The FPP's accumulate soooo slow with silverstar. And since I make most of my profit from poker by cashing in my FPP's, I'm a little worried. Gonna have to make money the old-fashioned way- by winning it at the tables- for the time being. I'm up $10 this month. Life is good.
I'm just happy I got that horrible drug out of my body. I feel clean.

I'm a Cowboy, I check/call my draws
March going about as bad as February. Struggling mightly at this point to keep my supernova status. I feel horrible. I will just come right out and say it. I am getting off an anti-psychotic medication I take called clozaril. I have been on clozaril for 4 years now. If you are new to my blog, I have schitzo-affective disorder. For this I was prescribed clozaril. Well, the news has not been good about clozaril. The damaging effects it has on one's cardiac health. The constant need for sleep, the flattening effect. I told my doctor I'm done with it. Put me on something else. Anyway, getting off the clozaril is proving to be very difficult. I can't harldy sleep. I'm withdrawing, I'm agitated. It's like coming off a street drug, I'm just crawling in my skin and tired and miserable.
My doctor has put me on another anti-psychotic medication. I have not been taking it. Fuck it. I'm not getting hooked like a fiend on theses drugs. They mess your body up. I'd rather be healthy and out of my mind. But I think I can be healthy and sane without these drugs. I'm working on it. But , right now, right now it's a nightmare.

bitch..
Well, February sucked. I kept my supernova status, but loss just about $100.(after $300 bonus, yikes) I played 2500 sngs. I have had to move down in stakes since destroying my laptop and running bad. I tried playing turbo sngs for awhile and got destroyed. I have always played the regular sngs since starting poker. I was adjusting my ranges I guess for the turbos. It's kind of a different game. Instead of putting in effort to study the game, I went back to the regular sngs. I do MUCH better in these. So yeah, I'm playing $5sngs again. Fuck, whatever. I've made a couple of adjustments to my game. It's a little worrisome that I had a losing month playing $5sngs, albeit playing 28 at a time.
Just sitting here, 5 on sunday morning drinking whiskey. I had to put in a decent amount of volume just to keep supernova status playing the $5 sngs, I mixed in some $10s as well toward the end. So, even though I had bad results I'm happy that I reached my volume goal. I mean, playing poker, that's the only goal you can control. Get the colume in and good things happen.. sometimes. I guess whatever. Who cares about anything though.
What else. Oh, Runs With Mice is doing well. My fish died though. That was awhile ago, I might have mentioned it before.
I might play a deepstack tourny on stars today. It's the $11 deepstack 10K guranteed. I remember playing a couple of these before when i used to play mtts and I made the final table twice. They take forever, but if you really need like $200-$300 it's a good way to get it. The field is tends to be soft and you can just nut peddle for the first few hours and triple, quadruple up.
Told myself I would take the rest of the month off from sngs (2 days lol). By the end of the month it gets grueling. The other night I was playing and my eyes just kind of lost focus and felt like they were floating in my eyesockets. It only lasted a few seconds and I regained control, but it was a little unsettling. Guess that's all for now.

Where'd you go?
Been just a lil but since I last posted. The first shitty thing that happened to me is I spilt a miller lite on my keypad and destroyed my $1200 laptop. Didnt play poker fpr amonth. I had to take money out of my poker account and but a new high end laptop that can cater to my multitabling needs.
SInce it's been a while I will give my situation. I am a semi-professioanl poker player. The other shit I do besides poker is I go clean a gym after they close. This is for 2 hours every weekday night. So with internet poker and this job I am able to scrape by and call it a life.
