FLCL is back!
Tonight Cartoon Network started re-showing FLCL (midnight Eastern). Catch it while you can because it's only a six-episode series. If you come in tomorrow night in episode two, that's fine. Watch it through, then watch it again on the 2nd time through. You'll thank me.

New linkage!
Welcome Chris Gates to the blog family. He's a great guy and an avid baseball fan, and I definitely approve of his template art.

Another battle in the poker wars
Played a little bit with the profit money today. I lost it down to $25 at one point, but then won it back to $70 with a HOT run at the 6-seated $1/$2 hold-em table. The highlight hand was hitting a K for a 9-K straight on the river for a $20 pot.
So $70 for about... three hours of playing poker online combined. Not a bad racket.

Just couldn't resist...
I have the next (and hopefully final) job interview with the branch manager of the bank I'll be working at Tuesday after close. Looks like a slam dunk, but I'm going out for a haircut and some nifty threads tomorrow.
In the meantime, my parents called and said they'd ship down a $50 Wal-mart card to me. I of course took this as an opportunity to invest $50 at PartyPoker. I think it was a wise move... I ran over a shorthanded Omaha 8/b game and doubled up my $50 to $100. The original stake comes out tomorrow, and from there I'm playing with the suckers' money. Outstanding, says I.

The times they are a-changin'
Based on a convo I had with the HR department at the bank I tested for 2 weeks ago, it looks like I'm going to be offered a job very soon. If I get it, it's gonna be POKER NIGHT AT THE DOG TRACK for me. Then I can actually add a legit occupation to that little "about me" bar on the right. How cool.
