The Weekend Update

I had a semi eventful weekend for a change.

Friday night I joined Matt and Cal for a trip to wonderful Seneca Casino for a poker session. Turned out to be a 6 hour trip, culminating in me getting pretty drunk. I don't have the patience to be a poker player. First of all, I hate waiting to play a hand. This gets me into a lot of trouble because I play to many hands that have no chance of winning. I started off with 160 USD and after about an hour and half I was down to about 60 USD and matt was up about 100. So i began to slow down my play a little and speed up the drinking. Next thing I know its 2 hours later and I got a ncie buzz on. For some reason the drunker I got, the better I played, and the more shit i talked to the other players at the table. After 5 hours of play, I am pretty much wasted on free beer, i think the hottest waitress I have ever seen has a thing for me (even though i havn't said a word to her all night other than "Can i get another beer please"), and I'm back to even while Matt has about 40 USD left after being up aronud 300. All in all, it was a good night. Got home, visited with the Boss for a bit, watched another episode of Weeds and passed out around 4 in the morning.

Saturday was a glorious day of football. Preston and a couple other buddies came down to watch on the new plasma, and play some tiger woods golf on XBOX 360.

And then there was Sunday. The best sunday all year. 2 amazing football games in the afternoon. Once they finished at 8, the best show ever was on t.v. The 6th season of 24 has begun and I couldn't be happier. I have been watching this show ever since the very first episode 6 years ago without missing it once. I grew obsessed with this show very quickly. Although it has never been as good as the first season, i continue to watch and enjoy. This season is another case of Jack Bauer (the closest thing to superman) battling yet again some muslim terroists. I don't know what it is about this show, but they seem to try really hard to hammer home the point that every muslim must be a terrorist. It's easy to look by it, but it is getting a little old. But the plot will change after a couple episodes, so hopefully there is something new on the horizon. There was 2 hours last night, and another 2 tonight. I'm really looking forward to it.

Big month coming up. I have become obsessed with more t.v. shows over the holidays. i watched a lot of DVD's with nothing to do while off work. Prison Break starts next week, and Lost starts 1 or 2 weeks after that. Only thing that sucks is football is 3 weeks away from the offseason. I hate the offseason.
