Hit me, er...I mean Fold

So now I owe [livejournal.com profile] smokedamage because I've had a couple bad nights of Texas Hold'em in a row. Two good hands both beaten out badly. Only one really good hand, Full House, which manage to beat out two other guys' Straights. But apparently not good enough stakes to walk away ahead. I offered to put in my own money but I was told, "no, I got it," only to get it waved over my head afterwards. Damn cards just weren't in my favor. But hey, we all got told by one of the players that we're just amatures. What do you expect with only a $5 buy-in and chip values of .05, .10, .25, and .50?

In other news, I turned down the job offer in favor of not making the McNair people upset. And I finally withdrew from the C programming class. Tomorrow morning I meet with the people at the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital so that they know who I am when I start running experiments on their dyslexic children. So must go and get sleep now so that I'm in good form for the meeting.

Best journal entry title ever.

and here is a picture of my wife, actually (I used the wrong icon, in response to your last comment).

This one was taken in a restuarant by your lovely Man himself.

Yeah, I got a good one of him in his tux last night. He got a job working two nights a week as a doorman for a resturaunt and wanted to dress up for his first night. We took over 300 pictures while in Seattle, Vancouver, and Whistler.
