lazy saturday

I don't really have much new to post about, but I'm restless sooo...this will hopefully be a short/light post.

Main news: I think I'm going to return to poker at the end of August, most likely--but possibly not until October. I've been saving up money from my new "job" and I've been thinking about using it to start an online bankroll, since the casino is really too far/troublesome to go every day and make a consistent enough profit to sustain me. Also, my lease ends at the end of August so I'll probably be leaving Boston (although I'm currently looking into alternatives to going home..).

As much as I dislike online poker compared to live play, it's a more realistic way for me to make a safer, steadier profit. I could treat it like a regular job (6-8 hour playing sessions/day), but since it's my own time I could be more flexible with when/what days I play. Also, I can play from home (wherever that may be), which is a plus. Not 100% yet, but it may be a nice alternative to going home in September.

Speaking of my love for Boston and inability to let it go, I ran across this on a friend's site and I've been meaning to share. If you're familiar with PostSecret (uh who isn't?) it's a similar deal. Here's one of the daily questions posted on The Wheel:



And here's his answer:



Check it out, it's pretty cool. I haven't seen it first-hand yet, but I believe it will be in Harvard Square beginning August 3rd. I live nearby so I might just have to go and write my own question...

That's it for today, friends. It's bright and sunny (and not rainy). Go outside!

*Note: I just realized I should probably change the name of my blog...it doesn't really apply anymore since, well, I'm working a 9 to 5 and I'm not playing poker right now. "The Life of Nate" makes more sense seeing as that's what it's basically become. I did not intend this. Ugh. I'll reevaluate soon.
