nobody is innocent... everybody is a whore...
interesting subject eh? lol i dunno random thoughts. so this will be some goddamn entry. i just got done unpacking from florida.
sunday. woke up at about 4:30am and went to the airport. plane ride was alright. it wasn`t nonstop so we had to drop by atlanta for two hours of lay-over. left california around 7:00am i believe (CA time) and ended up in tampa florida at around 3:50pm (FL time). papa and granny picked us up from the airport. they are amazing people. they have been married for 58 years and he still opens the car door for her. it`s heartwarming. they are like 80 and in nearly perfect health. it`s amazing... i want to be like that when i get older. anyways. we got to their house and they showed us to our rooms. mine had a tv in there with cable so i was happy. this is about where my thing for poker starts. i turn on the tv and sure enough it`s the world series poker on espn.. i`m like fuck this, so i start flipping through the channels and i end up at on the travel channel. world poker tour was on. i don`t see what`s so great about wpt... i mean the pots are pretty sad compared to the world series poker on espn, AND they just don`t seem that interesting as players. they don`t talk too much, and it`s like just not as great. but i guess it`s better than nothing. anyways, off subject lol. so i started watching and i was like damn this is pretty interesting. then i sit down and start playing solitare because i had nothing else to do. played for about an hour. then stayed up and watched the world series poker until about 2 or 3 i think. greg raymer is god. the fossil man... took home the first prize-5 million buckaroos. (compared to the 3.2 million "biggest pot in wpt history," which was split by places-so first prize was about 1 million.) that guy was amazing. he took out 4 of the 5 other players at the table. he had some badass glasses yo. then i went to sleep.
monday. woke up and had some breakfast. we went out for a walk with papa and saw like 6 alligators. alligators are L337 as fuck. then just fed squirrels and stuff. those guys are freakin` awesome! hahaha damn those guys are sneaky little critters. then came home and did i whole lot of nothing. that night watched tv flipping through looking for any poker stuff going on. ended up watching family guy and then the behind the music on snoop dogg, then on notorious b.i.g. it was pretty interesting. then slept around 4 or 5. i was still on california time so that was only like 1 or 2.
tuesday. woke up and got ready for the beach. the beach there is amazing too. if california had beaches like that i`d actually go. get a tan, show off my fat. shit like that. or you know, whatever you people do at the beach. but anyways, goddamn these tangents. we went parasailing! if you don`t know what that is, it`s crazy. you go on this boat and then they strap you into a parachute thing and let you fly up. we got the 1000ft of rope. so i`d assume we went about like 700 ft in the air (the rope wasn`t straight up). it was amazing. it was quiet as hell and the view was amazing. i saw everything. it would have been more quiet if my mom wasn`t screaming about falling. it was pretty goddamn high. we weren`t strapped in tightly either haha which was funny. they put a life vest on you. then they tie a velcrow belt on you. then they use those rock climbing key chain holders to clip you to the parachute. then they just let you go. it`s mind boggling. apparently there have been lots of accidents and such. and it`s still 75 bucks per person. anyways, came back and did a lot of nothing. met mike and charles (papa and granny`s sons). mike has been playing guitar for about 40 years. he knows a whole lot. he`s a really cool guy. then charles knows all kinds of card things. he taught me a few things while we were playing poker. he taught me how to cut the deck with one hand.. it`s tricky i`ll tell ya haha, but i got it. then i learned how to shuffle and make it look all neat haha. then he showed me how to like flip the cards, but the other way. it`s hard to explain but it`s really awesome looking, but not as neat as the normal way. anyhow yeah that`s it. we played poker until like 9 with pennies. then i went to watch the wpt. good stuff. went to sleep around 12.
wednesday. woke up and went to breakfast. good stuff. it was really good food. then we went out and hung out with charles and his wife kathy. they got us some chocolate that is really good. then i just played more poker with charles. he used to work for the CIA so he can read people. i couldn`t stop smiling with my luck haha. then when i tried to fake my happiness he knew and laughed at me. lol. then went to sleep? i may have watched wtp, if i did then that means you have to switch tuesday night with this cause i don`t remember what day it was on. then i went to sleep really early for thanksgiving the next day.
thursday. woke up and took a long assed shower because i was so tired. had two cups of coffee and then sat around for awhile.got a talk about poker and gambling. they really think i`m going to start gabling with like 5k a chip. it`s like i`m not that interested. i doubt i`ll play for money. it`s fun but that`s about it. it starts small, like quarters, then it gets to be dollars, then fives, twentys. next thing you know you`re 22 with no money sweating at the hold em` table in vegas clutching your last 1k chip because you lost your other 200k you`ve been saving for years. wtf am i talking about. anyhow. went to mike`s for thanksgiving dinner. his backyard is jagnormous. and his dog gus is like 170 lbs. and he`s not fat at all. i mean 170lbs of a HUGE DOG. this guy is L337 though. like he eats paper and stuff. he`s crazy. i could have rode him i bet. he was like a horse lol. crazy dog. CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG. he was cool. hung out, and ate some fuckin good ass food. then we left for the airport. waited around for awhile, then got onto our plane. we were on song airlines by delta, and it was fuckin awesome dude!! like this plane was badass as hell. it was a small plane and we were in first class somehow. we had satellite tv and like mad service. it was awesome as fuck. the 5 hours went by sooo fast. the tvs were touch screen. you could satellite tv (like 30 channels). or listen to music-like 25 channels and it showed the play lists. watch movies (you had to buy them for 5 bucks thoughh). then you could do this music quiz thing. it was like a game that you played with all the other people on the plane. it showed their seat number so you could see who you were playing against. it was really cool. then we landed in LAX and took a taxi home. those taxis are nuts. i was watching the meter.... fuckin christ. it was moving at 20cents every 5 seconds. i know it`s not by time, but at the rate we were going it was about 20 cents for every 5 seconds. we ended up paying 25 bucks for a ride from LA to our house.
now... and now i`m here. george shit all over my bed so i`m sleeping in the living room until tomorrow when my mom cleans it up. it`s disgusting. i unpacked and everything so yeah. band practice tomorrow?
i have a lot of studing/homework/reading to do. so i`d better get on it. happy thanksgiving everyone.
peace,
