February was pretty disappointing...

For various reasons (laziness, winter break, weather, etc) I didn't make enough time to play.  My win rate in those hands was adequate, but I would like to do better.  I went thru several long stretches without winning at showdown.  Obviously, there are things beyond my control, but in reflecting back on the month, I don't think I focused enough on what I was trying to accomplish with my play this month.  I was too focused on "squeezing in hands" whenever I could.  I suppose if poker wasn't my "job," I probably would have just not played a few of those days.  And like a job, whenever there is a day you're not looking forward to being at work, you sort of go through the motions, but aren't really "there."  I was up like 20K (not including the 4K I dropped on MTTs) and my win rate was under 2ptbb over 95K or so hands (iirc).  I now use two computers, so I'll post graphs and tables in the next day or two (as I have to export from one computer to put on the other).  I'll try to focus a little more this month.

I turned one year older!!! Once you're over 40, every birthday you're just that much closer to death.  I'm just kidding of course.  Well, I suppose you actually *are* one year closer to death, but that's not how I feel about getting older.  I'm a big believer if carpe diem - seize the day.  A big believer - not so great on the implementation tho.  Somehow, being 40 seemed okay (it kind of rolls off the tongue), but being 41 seems "old."  Kind of like how the 40 year old virgin is okay, but a 41 year old virgin just sounds pathetic.  Obviously I'm turning into CrazyFly.
March is a new month!

WHAT'S FOR DESSERT?

My sister-in-law ("SlawFly") picks up the best desserts.  Manhattan is so large I have no idea how she finds these boutique bakeries.  Anyway, these are bite-sized cupcakes she bought from Baked by Melissa.  $37.50 for 50 cupcakes is a little steep (because you need like 5-10 of them to get full), but they do make for great presentation.  (Out of the box, obviously)
