And next thing you know it is almost over…
Summer, you are a silly lass. Looks like you are slowly trying to run out of my life until next year, but I refuse to let that happen without some further excitement!
So let’s see what’s left on the plate?!
This weekend: Crawl for Cancer. I did this last year and it was siiiiiiick. All day team drinking, add in some games, some beautiful girls, an afterparty!, it ends up in complete madness plus helps a cause!
Sunday, the premiere of 2 Months 2 Million, Watch it. Tell your friends to watch it. Even if you don’t know anything about poker, it is going to be a sweet show. Set the DVR.
Then next weekend brings in Phi Denver. To explain, a bunch of my older buddies have a fantasy football league that they have had the past couple years that evolved above and beyond the traditional league that the house always had. This year a spot opened up and there was a grueling competition for the spot and in the end there was a tie between me and my good buddy. So instead of pushing the competition to potentially life threatening levels, we agreed to split it. Either way, this is a league that you WANT to be in, so I’m glad to be.
The draft is next weekend, and unlike your average league’s draft, this is bringing people from across the US to join us in Denver where there is a full Thursday-Sunday planned with hiking, golf, brewery tour, Rockies game, gratuitous amounts of debauchery, and maybe even some time for the draft. It’s going to be a ridiculous mess and I love it. They are changing to auction style this year, which after a bit of research, seems to completely blow snake drafting out of the water. Got me so pumped for it! BEAST MODE!
After that blows through town I need to get ready for the beginnings of fall and my big trip…. So that’s what’s on the plate for now.
Other things:
Mad Men: Badass. New season starts this week and I’m almost caught up.
True Blood: Pretty Badass. Started off really weird but I got hooked pretty quickly. It’s not really fair that Eric in this show is 8 million times cooler than Eric in Entourage.
Entourage: E’s pussyfooting aside, not bad. Ari is keeping it alive 1 and so I’m still watching it, but they need to really have a couple breakout eps to turn this around.
Rockies: Badass. Tulo put on a CLINIC 2 last night. Might be going to the game tonight, still undecided. Sweet Helton article.
Need to run more. Cooking is awesome, trying a ton of new things, having ridiculous success, and enjoying every minute of it. Need to read more. I finished a couple books including Outliers and am rereading an old book The Adventures of the Stainless Steel Rat. Starting new books left and right, finishing a couple here and there, but as usual, losing that battle. I guess that’s half the fun…
Later,
