I finally had something to write about

This has been a weird month, that's for sure.

I came out of August on a tear, up $400 playing cheap NL games. Well, the very first weekend of September, I dropped about 1/2 of that back in a run of bad beats and tilting.

Fast forward a couple of weeks. I've been banging around and not accomplishing much. I made a run at a final table in a $30 buy in on UB last weekend, going out 28th. Today, I took off work and played a $10 buy in and hit paydirt, final table. I went out 10th with 99, but considering I only had 3 pocket pairs the entire day, I was really happy with how a played. It paid a whopping $40, but I was happier about the FT than anything. Then tonight, I figure I'm playing pretty well, so I play a couple of sit and go's and that's exactly what I did....sit and go. ZERO cards both times. So, I blew through all of my profit in a about an hour.

I am playing better, but on a bit of a cold streak.

I'm in this dangerous trend. I blow off some cash, sit down at a 2/4 or 3/6 game and make back everything I lost. I've done that like 5 straight times. I'm just waiting for the time I blow through what little I have left. Not playing tonight, that's for sure.

On a personal note, kind of interesting stuff going on. The big one is that the job I applied for closes tonight, so I should start hearing progress on the in the near future. I'll be honest, it won't be life-changing....but it will be darn close. It's killing me because this is a VERY specialized position (there are only 30 people in the country trained to my level), but there is competition. I feel like I have a solid shot, but we'll have to see. The other thing is that my refinance FINALLY went through. THANK GOD.....I CAN HAVE SOME CASH ON HAND AGAIN.

I'll try and do a better job of keeping this thing updated, but haven't had much to write about lately.
