Much Like Ice Cube..

I gotta say it was a good day. Didn't even hafta use my AK.

Ok, enough gangsta slang. I'm not from the streets. I'm as white and suburban as they get. But I do love a good rhyme. Anyhow...

Slept in, had an easy day at work.

Got home, played the 4pm $5 MTT ($3K guaranteed) on UB. Four hours plus later, I finished 12th out of 579, clocking a sweet $21. Ok, screw that. I wanted to hit the final table. Especially top 6, guaranteed at least $60. Instead, I busted out like a chump in 12th with K9 suited in my big blind. I thought the bigstacked small blind was trying to rob me. He had A5 offsuit, and it held up. A king, a nine or a club on the turn or river... Nope.

Soccer rocked. Ok, not the first half. We had a 13 players for a 7-a-side league, but we still didn't defend much in the first half. Down 3-1 at the half, we actually played solid man-on-man defense for the whole second half, and had our forward Steve drop goal after goal on those bitches. He had 5 goals in the game. We won 6-5.

And then went for beer. Not just draft beer. This was Lamppost brew. 8% by volume porter. Tasty. Next time, we vowed to try the 13% by volume brew they've got. Named "Crack 'n berry". Sounds dangerous.

And I told the guys about that New Year's Eve I had in Greensboro that one year. Good times.

I accomplished nothing of real importance today, but it still felt damn good.
