Didn't wake up blinded this morning, although I found me right eye to be hurting while eating breakfast. That was not so much result of flash camera, but more of the spoon. Got a spoon out of the drawer for some yogurt when mum walked in, talked with her for a moment. She left. I was tucking some hair behind my ear and turning my head back towards the drawer when my eye collided with spoon which I was holding in my hand. It was a clever stunt which fortunately was not witness by any one save myself.
I player poker for 4 hours today. We were at my grandparents house, Uncle John and Cousin Rob down for the weekend. Rob, Dad, Martin and myself decide it's time for a game of poker. I so impressively won the first hand. For a good part of the game Rob was leading, then Dad, then myself and then Martin. Time passes, hand are dealt and Martin is the first to go. My pile of chips is looking pretty weak but Dad is the second to go. It looked like a quick execution for Ali but well ladies and gentlemen, I made one hell of a comeback, if I may say so myself. The table had turned but I was brought to my defeat by the high state of the blind. In a matter of 4 hands, Rob took the gold and all my chips.
Great Poker game, it has inspired me to find me some poker buddies, improve the wonderful talent I've got here just waiting to be used.
