My First

Well I guess I should start a blog seeing as it's the cool thing to do and I want to be cool too. I've been reading more and more blogs recently, mainly poker related, and starting to get into the whole blogging thing. So instead of just being a lurker feeding off the thoughts of others, I thought I'd at least participate a little. I really don't have a lot to write about usually, so I guess the main portion of this blog will be dedicated to poker and other miscellaneous ramblings of mine; first of which should be introductions I guess.

For the main part I am a HUGE nerd and after many years of denial I am quite happy with that fact. I have a Bachelor's in Computer Science and am currently a web developer at a real estate service company. Not the greatest place to work right now but it's a start and I'm learning valuable things right now. I live in the armpit of beautiful Southern California in the Inland Empire, or IE if you're from around here. It's more commonly known to many Los Angelenos as the valley of the dirt people. I don't mind it, most people around here take pride in it, which shows you the mentality of the people here. But at least living in SoCal allows me to do lots of fun things when I get some time off: snowboarding, dirt bike riding, off-roading, and recently surfing. I'm not so good at the surfing, only been a few times, but definitely enjoy it and want to keep learning. As of recently poker has become a major time consumption of mine. I can't really call it a hobby because a hobby is supposed to be fun. I swear sometimes being kicked in the groin would be more enjoyable than some of the hits you take in poker. Currently I'm just playing low limit sit-n-go's trying to improve my game and try to move up thru the limits. I know I'll probably never make it big with poker but it's always fun to dream. Well I think that is mostly the gist of it. Hope I can keep this up, I've never been really good at sticking to goals.
