im bored so heres a thread

[gabe]

what are you doing today?

im studying for a test i have at 2pm. it makes me think about why i dont like school and could be out ballin like crazy but im sitting in a computer lab instead. tonight im taking my friends out to a really nice dinner because im having an incredible poker month and feel like being generous. after that ill probably buy a case and drink until i fall asleep.

now your turn.

[Warpe]

I'm waiting to hear if I got a sweet $100K+ a year job that I 2nd interviewed for yesterday and interviewing for another one this afternoon.

[gabe]

nice. what kind of job?

[Trashcona]

I'm at work reading FTR and wondering when it will stop snowing.

[biondino]

About to go home after a day in the office. Tempted to stop off at Nike Town and look at some Air Max 90s.

[jyms]

Winnipeg??? It''ll stop in May. Go home, wear a hat, play some poker.

[Phantaroth]

About to head to class where I hope we arn't doing anything important as I am not up to date on this shit at all.

[jyms]

I thought you had that already?? Poker hasn't been good to you lately, has it?

[Warpe]

One's in my current industry, financial services, at a stock brokerage and the other is a HVAC sales job. I didn't realize how much money HVAC salespeople made until a guy I know who works for the same company told me about it.

One word of advice I'd give to any young guy that wants to make a lot of money and isn't in a traditional profession like law or medicine: go into sales. You'll always have a job and you can make a fortune in the right field.

[givememyleg]

i'm tired because i haven't slept in 35 hours, gotta take a nap

[swiggidy]

I'm mildly surprised and happy this isn't another shitty thread.

I'm going to work out and then go tutor for 6 hours.

[jyms]

Damn, I posted twice and forgot the reason for the thread. I'm at work, reading FTR and posting, most of the day. In two hours I head home, pick up my kid, make dinner, wait for the wife to come home, sit on my ass and wait for them to go to sleep, play poker till midnight. Then i do it all agian tomorrow.


By the way, notice that nobody mentioned playing in the Gauntlet.

[XTR1000]

i was studying some weird business administration stuff until my brain felt like a limp biskuit, now im surfing the net looking for a cheap hotel in austria or switzerland for a weekend of snowboarding.
im gonna play some poker, adjust my bmx´s wheels and listen to german rapmusic and drink beer. i like beer.

[gabe]

i just finished my test and it went alright. i forgot to mention i have a project meeting with some cool computer science nerds that im waiting to get started right now. also, one of my friends says he has to work tonight so im not sure if the dinner thing is still on. i would hate to leave him out but it sucks that the dinner keeps getting pushed back.

[gabe]

I'm mildly surprised and happy this isn't another shitty thread.

you forgot to add "hatin' " to things you are doing today

[ensign_lee]

I'm semi-preparing for an interview at 3:00 and studying for a test I have at 3:30. Woot?

Oh: and coding for a project of mine/writing content for it. Work; lots of work.

[StageWhisper]

I'm trying to mantain my sanity at home with rugrats while doing some pre-packing and financial planning for my husband's deployment to Iraq.

[gabe]

wow we have a lady in our midst ? awesome

I've been at school (actually, architecture studio) all night long, basically not doing my work.

The highlight of my day was when i entered a 10+1 rebuy on full tilt that only had 45 players and paid 6.

Pretty much no one was rebuying, so i played pretty tight and didn't gamble much. I still managed to somehow spend 90 dollars including the addon (lol only 2/3 of the players even took it), and still only started the second hour with 4800 chips. So basically i was in shitty shape to even cash this thing, which would have me still down around five dollars (if i took 6th).

So i was like fuck this sucks.

Then first hand after the break i picked up KK in the BB and im like omg, so this player minraises to 240 in middle, and i think and threebet to 720, he instashove for 80% of my chips, i instacall and he has AA. I flop a flush draw and then brick the turn/river.

So then im like last in chips. Anyway to make a long story only semi-long, i ended up chipping up huge and then getting short again when it was the bubble, but somehow i managed to make 3rd despite not catching cards at all. So I cashed for like 220, GG WP and etc.

Now im tired as hell and am waiting for my professor to talk to me so i can sneak out and go home to crash.

[Trikflow77]

Nursing a grey goose hangover from last night when we went to a strip club.....I had to go to the tax office and pay taxes on my car....gg 1600 bucks. Then i took my laundry to a wash and fold place cause im lazy and dont like to do it and the gf is slackin. Lost a few hundred playing cards so far, think im going to take the dog for a walk now, and watch somebasketball tonight, maybe pack for nyc since i leave tomorrow. Oh yeah, went to fidelity and dumped 5k more in a stock.

[IowaSkinsFan]

I'm sitting in my ex gf dorm room in New Hampshire while she is in class while im trying to kill time.

normally i agree, thats why i drink it, but today i woke up groggy and have stayed that way since.

[bigspenda73]

Just woke up. Going to be interviewing for a few j-o-b's. Wish me luck.

[mrhappy333]

I just got home from a super boring day at work, and the wife has started re painting the room I just painted last year, a new color. But I'm not mad, so long as I don't have to paint.
Checking emails, Dinner is going to be ready soon. same old, same old. Now to mix things up, I think I'll go chew on some tin foil!

[Renton]

aren't u the same guy who collaborates with your wife to tag team chimps and stuff?

dont give me that same old same old garbage

[mrhappy333]

its same old same old for a while, then BAM fireworks for one night

[donkbee]

lol ...

I am about to make plans for a road trip from PA to Vancouver in late March. I've never been cross country/continent in a car before, so maybe it'll be fun!

After that I need to go buy food because I have none in my house. Then I get to tutor for $35/hour. After that I'll come home, make client calls til 9 pm, and then donk off $100 or so playing stupid Lee Jones rigged donkaments on Stars.

[mrhappy333]

Courtie, what do you teach/tutor?

[Warpe]

I'm just a girl, you should push.

Leave this alone, right?

[bigred]

I'm in a good mood after a good wines tasting class, lifting session, and a great tivoed soccer match of barca vs liverpool. Liverpool pulled it out 2-1 away at nou camp.

Now I'm cooking a digourno pizza (I want to see if it's that good), watching future cars on discoery channel, and planning on reading some environmental economics and maybe a little investment analysis reading.

I'm kinda bummed because all my friends seem to have exams tomorrow. I want to go out.

[Warpe]

I want to come out.

[thizzSantaCruz]

Today was decent. I woke up extremely early to hit up the gym before my early midterm this morning. I wake up and remember that I actually have a section meeting for a history class at 930. I scramble to get there in time and find out it has been cancelled. It turns out being okay because this cute girl in my class walks in at the same time. So we talk for a bit then I bounce out and study for my midterm.

My midterm was pretty much a success. It was in intermediatte macroeconomics I finished quickly and am confident. Last time I was confident as well but pulled the lowest C- possible.

Went out and did some chores, got a hair cut, bought myself a new Oakland Athletics hat.

Attended another class, skipped one class and here I am bullshitting around online while watching the white rapper show. I gotta represent for my boy mike brown from Davis, he really can rip a flow. He destroyed dude in Detroit on the stage.

Later tonite I will go to my weekly cash game. Hopefully I can make some good plays and take home some cash.

[a500lbgorilla]

I just did some homework. Compressible flow through a converging-diverging nozzle with normal shock waves, using the Quest method to translate from the body fixed frame to an inertial fixed frame and some boring structures problems.

Then smoked the hookah and watched VT crush BC.

[Warpe]

Then smoked the hookah

gl with that security clearance thingie

[a500lbgorilla]

the hookah is smoking tobacco, I'm somewhere older than 18. All on the up and up.

The flavor was peach, by the by.

[gabe]

i smoke a couple heads on the hookah a day and ive never had peach.

i have had mint, mango, orange, banana, the unflavored old man kind, mixed fruit, and apple.

[koolmoe]

I've been trying all day to get my 3 month old to sleep. She's finally resting peacefully, and I am off to bed.

I think I'm going to be getting a new job soon.

I smoked a hookah once in a bar with some half naked female Army airborne medics in DC while some lesbians tried to pick up my wife. That story sounds like it would make a pretty good thread, but that's pretty much all there is to it.

[thizzSantaCruz]

hookah can be pretty relaxing. peach is good but mango is the best.

check it out

[Benoso]

Well it's the old man's 50th today, so I'll probably go and have a few beers with him, I bought him some DVD boxset, he'll be cool with that.
I haven't seen him for a couple of weeks which is pretty bad but meh.
Then I'll probably go and play some football (or soccer :/) in the evening.
Somewhere in between I'll look to clock 1000 hands.

I remember liking the mango the one time I tried a hookah.

[Galapogos]

I vote Warpe as the best poster in this thread.

What I did today, slept in. Sat around with the gf for a few hours. Drove her to work. Talked with my business partner on MSN about some thing we're gonna get going. Played poker for a few hours. Made $800 on two tables in like 3 hours at 100NL. Some high rollers may scoff at my little victory but it has been a SHITTY week poker-wise. Nice to see some light again...

Now I'm watching Sopranos and eating some pork steak marinated in mesquite. I burned it a little and that made it taste fucking awesome.

[thenonsequitur]

Today I found a 60gig iPod just laying on the sidewalk downtown, with nobody in the area, so it didn't just get lost. This worked out perfectly for me because I don't have an iPod yet but was thinking about getting one (sucks for whoever lost though). Really good music collection on it also.

[thenonsequitur]

If you like hookah haven't tried Cardamom, I'd highly recommend it. It's sounds weird for a shisha flavor, but it actually works really well. It's my favorite flavor. Mango is probably my second favorite.

[gabe]

oh ive also had "rose" forgot to mention that

[boost]

oh ive also had "rose" forgot to mention that

Ive had rose gellato once, it didnt taste like much.

I went to get my passport today. I got denied. She said I needed proof of travel. I want a passport for the spring / summer. Im buying a 600$ one way ticket to canadia because its refundable. Also I had a "moment" with this girl on the train, she was really cute, we kinda met eyes and smiled, all of that corney shit. The train quickly got really pakced though and I kinda got pushed back, then my stop came. Kinda wish I just started talking to her from the get go, but I waited and lost the chance. When I got off she looked out hte window and gave me that cute smile again. Oh and I made 266$ in the session I played before going to the passport office.

Report it missing. Good karma is better than an ipod.

no, just click 100 "10s" on hotornot.com, best way to build karma by far.

[thenonsequitur]

How would I go about reporting it missing? I found it on a sidewalk.

[Irisheyes]

After that I need to go buy food because I have none in my house.

Did anyone else read this as I have a nun in my house?

Was I the only one that found this super funny?

[givememyleg]

what's so cool about hookah? i thought it was pretty lame.

[bode]

the only flavor ive ever smoked out of a hooka is AK-47 and a something called sour deisel.

anyway, my boss is an idiot and he let me take home the wrong laptop last night, so now i have to meet him on the complete opposite side of town an hour before work this morning. Since ill be running early, ill probly grab some starbucks and chill for a while before i get to the office.

my wife has to work tonight, so i *might* actually get in a decent amount of hands tonight. Ive been running something like 25bb/100 over the last 7500ish hands but that is basically all of february.

i want to get my money off AP now, and finally can, but kinda want to wait until either stars or FT offers a reload bonus? any word on either of these?

[bode]

good thread BTW

[bode]

hooray for triple posts

[Warpe]

In my time all we smoked in a hookah was opium-laced hashish. You crazy kids!

[XTR1000]

hell, im awake!
it´s 1pm, im gonna study some petroleum engineering stuff focusing on coiled tubing, go buy some food, gonna pump iron in the gym and finally play poker, watch lost and drink tea.

[Lukie]

wow we have a lady in our midst? i've never seen one of those before. awesome

zing

[gabe]

yea this is a great thread.

i have two assignments due today but i didnt do them. like i said, i just got drunk last night and smoked. whatever.

ill probably turn them in, then not stay for the class. id rather come home and just make 1 mil playing poker. seems more fun.

[Warpe]

I'm waiting to hear if I got a sweet $100K+ a year job that I 2nd interviewed for yesterday...

WEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Life is good.

[gabe]

congrats i guess??

[Warpe]

Yup. Thx. I actually have two jobs on the line...the one I just got (HVAC sales) and the brokerage one. I'm still going to go through the process on the brokerage job because it's got potential to be a $250K+ type position, but I imagine there'll be a lot of competition for it so there's no guarantee I'll make the cut. I breezed through the first interview yesterday though and have a second one with the big guy next week. If I get that one then I'll just say "So sorry, but..." on the first one.

[thizzSantaCruz]

the only flavor ive ever smoked in a blunt is AK-47 and a something called sour deisel.

FYP

[thenonsequitur]

Every couple weeks the weed delivery guy brings about 3 to 6 different options, and usually many of them different from the previous time(s). I just placed an order last night, and this time one of the options he brought was, coincidentally, NYC Sour Diesel (I don't know how NYC Sour Diesel differs from regular Sour Diesel, but it's on the label, and a quick google search shows that it means something). This is the first time I've heard of this strain, and it's come up in two completely unrelated contexts within 24 hours.

[mrhappy333]

Ive smoked diesel, and ak 47- wow. good stuff.
or I mean, I know a guy who has smoked both.

[boost]

damn I suck with girls. Had to go downtown again today, I had some time to kill though so I went to a pub and got a blue moon around 1pm. Then I walked over to the lake, sat and watched the drift ice and the geese. Then I walked back a diff route through millenium park. On my way back to the federal building I saw this girl walking with a guy and another girl. She was good looking, gave her a smile as I went by. She turns around and is like "omg, youre so familiar!" but we both are stillwalking, I kinda half turn but dont recognize her. Then it clicks, me and some freinds met her and one of her freinds months ago just randomly way on the northside. We went back to my freinds house and just chilled, no one hooked up, I was really drunk. Then I didnt feel like sleeping at my freinds so I hopped on the trai nwith the girls, I was pretty much too far gone to make any effort. Im lucky I made it home. The shitty thing is, I realized this too late, we were already way past each other. I suck.

This makes me realize that I def need to get out more though. Even if only to walk around. Downtown is fun, and its good to get fresh air. Also you never know who youll run into. Def beats sitting at home 24/7 on this damn computer.

[thenonsequitur]

Your story is oddly inspiring, boost.

[Warpe]

boost stories>Lukie stories

Y/N?

[boost]

ofc my stories own that nits stories. Anyways I gotta go pick up some shit from the federal building tommorow. So this is 3 days in a row going downtown to the same area. The first two I struck out getting easy numbers. I think Im going to stay in downtown til I have some cute girls number tommorow.

[Rondavu]

I just smoked crack all night and had sex with two hookers. The night before that I ran over 3 hippies with my pickup truck before vomiting in a ditch and purposely jaywalking to defy the man.

[a500lbgorilla]

Back to hookahs. Since I've basically stopped doing anything remotely illegal, i've been smoking the hookah a lot more. The nicotine buzz is nice though i sometimes smoke myself to nausia. I've tried every flavor under the sun including the honey based tobaccos (as opposed to molasses based). Good flavors are mixing mint and vanilla, two real pungent fruits like peach and mango, or doing orange/lemon with a slice of orange/lemon placed in the water. The way to great flavor is to try and fit as much ice as possible + salt the water so that it stays cooler longer. Also, use the wood coals, not the charcoal ones.

It's just nice to relax with friends, the hookah and a movie/the game.
