Some Advice From Me

I am so sorry that I haven't been writing much lately. I have been extremely sick, and as a result, every member of this house is now falling ill with the same thing I had. Christmas Eve and Christmas? Forget it. I laid in bed, wishing for death every second. My body hurt, I couldn't breathe from all the congestion in my chest, and I couldn't stop coughing. I ran a low grade fever and mumbled in my sleep. I missed Christmas Eve at my Aunt and Uncle's house, and Alexa didn't get to open her presents on Christmas until well after noon. Then, the very day I start feeling better, Bryan starts feeling like shit. I mean, his eyes were all glazed over and he was definitely running a temperature. I let him sleep all day, waking him up only periodically to give him some more medicine. Today, he is almost back to his old self. And so am I.

Which brings me to the reason for this post. Bryan and Dave are always out playing poker. They talk about poker a lot and at first, I tuned them out. But then, I started listening, just so I could follow their conversations. And it actually caught my interest. One night, before we took our second trip to Florida, I was hanging out with Bryan at his house and he was watching a tournament. I started asking questions, and the more I understood about the game, the more it piqued my interest. So, the other night, we had a little get together at my house and Dave asked me if I wanted to play poker with everyone. I thought, what the hell, I'll give it a shot. I mean, I had enough of a basic understanding to get through it, and if I didn't like it, I could always just quit.

Well, I'm hooked now. Ladies: if your man is into poker, totally get into it with him. It's so much fun. It's something you can do together, and guys are intimidated by girls who play poker, I've heard. I've been playing online, just to practice, and a couple of hours can go by pretty quickly. Alexa learned how to play before I did, and now she helps me when I have questions. I like playing against her on the table though, because she's easy for me to read. I have a long way to go before I can read strangers, but once I feel a little more confident, I'm going to the casino with Dave and Bryan and playing poker with them instead of burning up all my money on the slots. I'll make sure I wear my ball cap and sunglasses, though. I am too easy to read. The other night, Dave was able to predict what I had in my hand by the look on my face. That's nuts! What a fun, crazy game. Try it. I suggest vegaspoker247.com. This site is a lot of fun, with lots of ways to play.

All right, I'm off to take care of some business. Until next time...................
