Spring is here Bring on Summer







Wow how long has it been? Does anyone even read this blog? lol not that I care, its a great way to look back and let everyone whats going on.






Well lets see last time I blogged it was the ski season, and lets just say it was a great one. For all of those that missed their time here in Utah this year aka (Ben, Erin, Justin,) don't worry I'm sure that next year will absolutely suck............not that I'm bitter at all.........






But spring is here and summer is very, very close. For all of those keeping track I finally finished my Masters!!!!! So now I can look for a new job in the worst job market in history.......sweet...... I've not really been looking all to hard though, things at work have being going well, plus they did give me a raise so its not to bad to stick around for a little while. I did apply to lets just say a government agency.......I'm not sure what I can and cannot say about it, but I'll let you know if anything crazy happens with it. Courtney is doing well, working hard as always, we've really hit the yard this spring so our projects list is through the roof, but hey thats the beauty of owning a home right?






Oh its apparently wedding season since three of my good friends are getting married this summer and fall. I was supposed to be in all three weddings, but as fate would have it two of the weddings are on the same day in different states, so I had to choose which one to go to, which by the way sucked. But I am looking forward to the weddings and of course the receptions!!!!! aka beer lol for those that know me, sadly they know im serious lol.






Oh I did forget to mention my trip to Vegas in March with my brother, Willie and Bobo. It was a complete guys trip and all we did was play poker, which was sweet. So heres a little rundown of our trip. We left friday morning and arrived in Vegas around 230. We went to my brothers time share which kicked ass by the way, and then straight to our first poker tourney. We decided to play at the Orleans hotel and casino just off the strip due to the fact it was close to the time share and not a bad buy-in at 105.00. So we started the tourney with a little over 150 people long story short (I dont want to bore those who know nothing about poker) the other guys busted early in the first few rounds and moved on to the cash game, I on the other hand played my ass off and about 6 hours latter made it to 15 place before going out winning about 350.00 bucks not to bad for the first night in Vegas.



The second day we went to Binions downtown which if you've never gone to downtown Vegas I suggest you take a cab over, its got the old school feel of Vegas plus a huge covered street to walk down. So we played another tourney and again everyone but me busted early, now im not saying I'm great at poker I just hit some great cards. So they paid through 13 places and I took 17th oh well still had a blast. Well since this trip report is getting way to long I'll some the whole thing up, we played all cash games for the rest of the trip and had a great time, the fellas were great company and how can you not have fun in Vegas.






One other trip I did get to go on was a quick trip to TN to celebrate my buddy Ishii's 30th bday, and Bretto's 27th bday. It was great to see Ishii and Barbie and their two little kids, We had alot of fun and drank many Jap beers which is always a good thing, well enjoy the pictures and until next time have a great summer and come and stay with the Munsons!!!!
