Yesterday was bracket removal day. I was so damn glad to get that metal removed from three of my front teeth. One of the anchor teeth had drifted out a bit and my dentist was going to replace the crown on it for free, he did. BTW I go to Dr. Rose if any of you are looking for a great dentist, he is. But he also has a torture chamber hidden in the inner recesses of his office. That’s where I was taken when I innocently walked in yesterday. Continue reading Welcome to the torture chamber

It’s early a.m.
for me anyway. My schedule is bizarre and I have a very difficult time dealing with life when I don’t log around 7 to 8 hours of sleep in a 24 hour period. Today will be one of those sleep deprived, weirdtard days of delirium. I’m on my way out to Pahrump in about two hours to do a walk through of the house and property that Vickie and I are waiting to claim as our own. Of course it takes forever to settle a real estate deal and this one is right there…forever. It’s still not closed but it’s time for the final walk through. Darian and Riot are going to make the trip with me, at least I will be entertained and have company as I make the hour drive out and back. Continue reading It’s early a.m.
a few scratchings
Belated Dad’s Day wishes to all of you dads out there, even if you’re a mom. Maybe you’d have to have been there. Continue reading a few scratchings
A busy little bee
That’s me, barely stopping, barely keeping up…pshaw…who am I kidding, I feel like I’m halfway up a mile long glass hill and someone’s at the top pouring Wesson oil right in my path. Continue reading A busy little bee
Poker Bloggers
I can’t help but wonder if the glorious days of insane poker bloggers converging on Vegas is becoming a thing of the past. It certainly doesn’t feel the same as it did a year ago but then a year ago didn’t feel quite the same either. The winter gatherings bring in most of the horde and I’m hoping this December will see the same or better enthusiastic flood of my favorite poker lunatics showing up in Sin City.

The WPT in trouble?
I can’t help but wonder what the fate of the WPT will be. This article points to a not so bright future. On May 26, 2002, I was present at the Media announcement of the WPT – World Poker Tour. I was even told that I might be the dealer to deal the hand that showed the hole card cams…but my breasts weren’t big enough – no shit? – and I didn’t. Someone that had never held a deck before was given the honors…her breasts were big enough. Nah…I don’t want them and it’s never been an issue with me. If my tits had to represent/proceed me in my lifespan I’d go have surgery, just like almost every other woman in Vegas has done. Continue reading The WPT in trouble?
Alan Jaffray went all out
on styling up for a shot at the WSOP Ladies event, only to be refused admittance and have his buy-in refunded. Honestly? I can’t get into ladies events. It’s kind of like the seniors and the employee events…they are restricting admittance due to a requirement that the whole population can’t fulfill and that is discrimination to me. What the hell do I know? There’s a thread in the forum on ladies events, anyone interested in contributing?
It’s a great morning in Vegas
the temperature is perfect for an early a.m. stroll – evening to some of us – and that’s what I just did. I had to wait for the Window’s Service Pack for Vista to download and install anyway. The warning message on the service pack was ‘don’t even think about using your computer while this is going on’ so I didn’t. Continue reading It’s a great morning in Vegas
Me thinks me doth
not know a frigging thing about the game of poker. It’s the boo hiss season right now. I’m busted out of four tournaments with Aces. But why would aces beat 2-3 or 8-4 or any of those magnificent holdings? It ain’t gonna happen. Continue reading Me thinks me doth
The Sandwoman’s in my immediate future
Tournament and news reports are coming in and the people side of poker is going up on PokerWorks in the WSOP Central section. My favorite part of poker is the people side of it. I don’t mind the people so much but I do hate the cards a lot at times. I’m still beating my head into a brick with the Chasing Chris Ferguson project, but hey…why not? What better time could I have than playing poker from home and being able to get really vocal when I take a beat – without getting a warning from the floor!
