I am teh win

This past Saturday was Andrew's birthday, so he gathered the troops for a trip to Foxwoods. The troops ended up amounting to me, Joe, and Doug, but that worked out fine because any more people would have required a second car and gotten rather unwieldy, especially since most people (Joe and Doug included) won't play poker for as long as Andrew and I. I'll spare you all the gory hand-by-hand details, but I will say that I had basically three hands worth playing in the two and half(ish) hours we played, and I made the most of them. I sat down with $80 in chips and cashed out $404, a pretty good return on investment. Andrew did less well, so I bought him dinner before finding Doug and Joe. The best part of that was we went to The Stadium, a pretty nice sports bar. The first question the hostess asked was, "How many?" and the second was, "Which game are you here to see?" We just stared, so she asked again. Andrew managed to get out, "Mets game," so she sat us at a square table, told us to sit in those two seats, and said, "Met's will be on that one," while pointing at a nearly 40-inch HDTV on the wall.

Best.

So yea, it was a pretty good day. I put my four new friends named Ben in the Buy Jay an R/C Helicopter Jar, which is now as full as it needs to be. I figure I shouldn't be spending nearly that much on a first chopper, since there's a decent chance it will get pretty banged up before I get the hang of it. I'll get around to ordering it in a bit, once the cash gets in the bank and I pick one out.
