Sitting Alone

This is my first attempt at blogging...not sure if it's for me or not yet. Probably not. Just an attempt to keep up with the society I live in, I guess. It's also a way to get some of my frustrations out when the gym is closed.

Most of those frustrations seem to come from the poker table. At least today they have. I consider myself a good player - not great by any means, but not bad either. I faced a few of those "bad" ones today. Some stupid shit is to be expected, but I was knocked out of three tournaments today by some REALLY stupid shit - at least I moved/called each time with the best hand...haha. Whoever coined that statement must've been seeing a shrink...such BS.

So, I named my blog "The Fog of War - Life, Poker, and Steaks". Crazy name probably, but sorta explains the ambiguity of my life. Ever feel like you were spinning your wheels? Not fully reaching your potential - either in your chosen profession or in your personal life? Uncertain about your capabilities, or how far you should reach into your dreams or desires? There you have it - you, too, are experiencing your own "fog of war". Good - I feel better already, knowing that I'm not the only one walking around in a "fog"!

The rest of the name comes from other highlights right now in my life. Poker and Steaks. More on that later on - if I really decide to keep up with this...blog. I guess sitting at home alone, with a computer in your lap, is not a good thing! Later.
