It's a $10 bill bonanza....

It has been exactly one month since my last post. It's amazing how much money I've saved over the course of the last month. I have yet to cash in my change but it has to be in the $50-$70 range and my $10 bills.....

Well, it has swollen from 3 to 30!!!

Yeah...that's like one spin of roulette but still.... :)

My June 2011 WSOP Vegas savings has begun!

Do I think I can get to $10,000 by saving all my change over the course of the next year? No. However, $10,000 is the goal, I'd settle for 3-4,000.

I think I'll take my change I throw in the bucket to the Coinstar every month or so and keep a running tally of my progress. I've also decided to put every $10 bill I get into the bucket. 3 already!!

WSOP

I cannot miss the WSOP again. WSOP is the World Series of Poker. I was out there last year and it was surreal. I really am having a hard time with missing it. I have a few friends that are out there now and I'm very jealous. I did go to Vegas in March but it's just not the same as during the WSOP.

I'm starting a separate savings account just for next years WSOP. I want to go for 2 weeks.

My goal is $10,000

We shall see.

Oh, I am going to Chicago 6/25 and then flying from there to Cancun 6/28 til 7/4

So I guess you shouldn't feel to bad for me on missing the WSOP.

Viva....

Las Vegas.

I am sooo in vacation mode already. I'm thinking about blowing off work tomorrow and I don't leave for Vegas til Monday evening. I return the following Tuesday morning. Should be an insane time. My boys Gross, Caveman, and Laidman will be there also. Laidman is driving in from L.A. Tuesday, Gross is flying in from Arizona and Caveman comes in St. Patty's day which is Wednesday.

I'm staying at Sahara for like $25 a night mon-thurs night and then probably MGM fri-sun night.

Should be a lot of fun and debauchery. I plan on giving a detailed report on here when I get back.

Later on kids...

The last week or so.

Just going to list some random things I did since the last update.

Went and saw Youth in Revolt. Was not very good in my opinion.

Spent lots of qt with kt....Was very very good in my opinion.

Ken did more work on my Blazer, which hit 200,000 miles also. It's running like it's new. Thanks Ken.

Lost $184 at cash game I hosted Wednesday.

Broke even at Dave's cash game Saturday.

Finally have DVR so I'm taping like every show you can think of. American Idol is always fun to watch during the auditions. It's sad that Simon is done after this year though. I'm sure he'll be just as good though on his new show X factor.

I have been working a lot of overtime. Actually worked both weekend days last weekend. Gotta make it while I'm young, right?

Well...thinking about heading down to Nautica to play some poker. I have not been there for like 3 months. Not sure why...I'm up about 7k at that place.

Ken did a hell of a job fixing my blazer.

Sunday Funday

First off let me say that this weather sucks.

So with my car still being out of commission Gross picked me up around 1 and we went to Cleats to watch football. I'm not a big fan of Cleats. Their food is not good and my ex works there. My ex and I get along just fine but it can be weird at times. River Pete came up which was nice. Petes is always fun to hang with and his NY resolution is to go out more, stay up late, and "live life". I told him that's good but it sounds expensive. :)

So after having some food and drinks and watching NFL til about 6 Gross dropped me off and I just chilled til Katie came over around 6:45. We hung out for a minute and then jumped in her car and went and rented the movie 500 days of Summer. It was ok. She really liked it though. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone but it wouldn't be a total wasted of time to watch it. After the movie I made her watch Pro Wrestling Ohio (PWO). PWO is so awful that its awesome. We actually know the main wrestler so it was cool to see him on tv and all that doing his thing.

After that we just laid around and she took off around 1. I took a vacation day today and I'm about to go pull the drive shaft out of my vehicle and get it ready for towing later...wish me luck
