Quick Bio

After many years of going to school and saying no to drugs I graduated with a degree!  Little did I know it would lead me to being beaten into the ground at the hands of a soulless corporation.  After 3 years I quit to play poker professionally.  I've now been full-time over 7 years, yet revenge is still in the air.  It's crazy to look back and realize I started this blog as I was simply 'pumping myself up' to quit the real world and go full time.  Now I also do some writing for fun as a 'day job' (some freelance and paid, but an insignificant sum compared to 5/10 live) and airbnb my place when I don't feel like playing as much.

Time is Consumed- Classes and Work

It is important for me to get this site off the ground.  I need to work on the design and start linking up with respected bloggers!  My life has just been a crazy mess the two weeks or so.  I'm trying to move out to Vegas by January, follow my dreams, and completely uproot my life.  So that is going to be a major focus with regards to what I write about on B-Life Poker.

I work a corporate job 9a.m-5p.m (minimum) Monday-Friday.  In addition to that I am taking Real Estate classes to get certified.  The classes are 9a.m-5p.m Saturday and Sunday.  So for an entire month I have NO FREE TIME.  I subjected myself to this so I can't really complain.  I just didn't see another time I could fit in the classes.  And it's important to be certified because I'm aiming for the Vegas move.  If something goes horribly wrong and I have to move back to Maryland at least I will be able to make my own deals in Real Estate in a transition period.  It's more of a back-up plan.  Hell even in Nevada if I ever build myself to a level of comfort, I could get certified with little effort since I have already been through the process.

Strange I'm not even going out for Halloween, all my friends must really hate me right now haha.  What can you do?  At least during this crazy time I'm so busy I won't even be able to drink.  Probably good to "detox" and completely clear my head for the first time in a while.  Even though this last week I was so busy I didn't even have time to fit in one measly workout.  I did not expect so much outside work for this class.  I studied 2-3 hours a night for the class since Saturday(10/24/09) and I'm just barely staying on pace.  Tonight same deal; fuck my life right.

Named the site sub-title "ROAD TO VEGAS".  I plan to discuss this more in time.
