Since The Gatsby Awards.....

I havent been upto that much

Thursday i went to the parents, tea cooked and on the table, bath run, now why did i ever leave home. All it would take to move back would be same cheap £50 a week board and for them to pee off every now and again when i wanted to take someone back.

Friday, i went out with the girl who was in the car when i had the crash. She seems nice enough, i just dont know what it is i want at the moment. Think its more liking her and being concerned for her after the crash, rather than fancying her rotten. Dunno what to do for the best. I do like her, just not sure like that.

Saturday - i got called into work but 1-6 shift is always cool. Footy on the radio. Busy couple of hours then wind down and away about 4.45pm. Also had £20 on Newcastle to beat West Brom @ 9/4 which was a bonus. Ryan Taylor + £6million for N'Somnia looks a fantastic bit of business
I played a couple of hands but couldnt be arsed and was knackered so went to bed earlyish.

Sunday - woke up and couldnt get back to sleep. Went for a walk, tidied up a bit and went online and channel hopped the television. The result being i eventually went back to bed at about 6am was exhausted and slept right through until 5.30pm in the afternoon. Fish n Chips (for techinically breakfast) some telly then poker. Played 3 and busted early in 1, Cashed in the other 2 but nothing serious.

Monday - Work then physio, My little scottish Therapist yet again had me twisted all over the place. Still it should be completed by October. Called by the parents to sort out next weeks plans. Its my fathers birthday at the weekend so we are doing the family meal thing.
Its also Valentines Day on Saturday which is awkward as CCG (Car Crash Girl) asked what i was upto and i said family meal. My parents asked if i wanted to bring anyone but im not sure i wont to go down that road with her. Invite to major family occasion is more or less instant proposal aint it.

Monday Poker - Anyways i get back and decide to fire up the 9.14pm £5 Headhunter (which i win . see pic below) Variance was on my side. I had the lucky straight flush, I also cracked AA with QQ earlier on. But on the final table i got there 2nd of 10 and was card dead. I even had to resort to bluffing with the hammer !!!!

Few hands later he fires and i call with KQd in the BB. He has A8
but i flop the King. Hes unlucky this time, but had his fair share of good fortune.....
nearly as much as i did !!!!

Also played the thunder but went out to Quad Queens. My A2 was proper mullered :)

Finally just to report that as of 10th February 2009 i still havent had....
Cigarettes
CocaCola or other coke
Crisps
Nuts

I dont think i have ever been so good at NY resolutions before. Especially the smoking !!!!
Its effing crucifying me though :( Still surely the hard bit is over

Ok thats it for now. Good luck all and thanks as ever for reading.
