To recap where I left off: I went to the other holdem tourney last week. And I get knocked out in an hour again. I started out ok. I made some nice pots and got a good chip stack going. But I started daydreaming or something and blew it. I should have called a few more of those pots. Those guys intimidate me or something. Oh yeah, I was at the same table as last time with a few of the same people. These two guys, right! They are loud and drunk and bet like crazy. (I think they might be crazy too). It's supposed to be a random mix, too. Yeah, it's quite random for three people to end up at the same table consecutively. Suuuure!! The funny thing was that the table number this time was 2 instead of 4...But I was at the same table both times. It's a good thing their pit boss guy doesn't deal cards too. I'd probably get 2-7 one time and A-A another but end up with the same hand both times.

So, I broke my RC truck and it's been out of commission for a few weeks. The hobby shops are so far away. I don't want to drive all the way there, buy the part I need, and break something else the next day and have to drive all the way out there again. If there were a place closer I would be driving that thing into the ground. So, instead I fixed my car-car. I replaced the front brakes and rotors on my car. I had a major Dwaynish moment too. I fixed the right brakes and was working on the brakes on the driver's side. I kept trying to get the Torx nuts loosened but they wouldn't budge. My neighbor came over, gave me some WD-40, and a pair of grip pliers for more leverage on the wrench. As he watched me struggle and bash up my hand in the process he asked me if I was going the right direction. Yeah, how Dwaynish am I? I was tightening the nuts, not loosening them. But my car is fixed and it doesn't shake voilently anymore when I use my brakes. I almost enjoy braking now. Ok, who am I kidding?
