When the kid is away...

We are kid free for an unbelievable 5 days! Sky is in Baltimore for a Kung-Fu tournament. Good time to not get paid but we have managed to not let that stop us from some much overdue time to ourselves. We did a little bowling…it’s been a very long time since we have thrown heavy balls down the ol’ lanes. I surprised myself by bowling really good and Mau knocked out a 182. When does league start again? We ran into Robin & Jeff so we bowled a game with them before they had a group join them.

Saturday we had a Grandma pop-in on her way to Florida then Mau pulled up the carpet in the turntable room (thank god, it was getting unbearable up here) and we went to the grocery store…whoohoo. We decided to get in on the super late night poker game over at Faris’ house. We ended up with a nice 12 person game making a huge pot with 3-4 people buying back in the first hour. What is nicer is that I took out 5 people and ended up being one of the remaining 2. It was a tie only because it was 5:30am and no one living at that house was still in the game so me and the other guy playing decided to split it and get out of there. It was cool playing a sit’n’go. I play in cash games everyday online but I haven’t played any tournaments or sit’n’gos in awhile, especially with live people. I wonder if we will be invited back since 2 out of 3 times, we have taken the pot over there.

Edr0 mentioned his parents were out of town at the poker game so we tracked him down on Sunday for some swimming. Ted was at his house so we all headed out to the Chinese buffet that makes me miss Dementia and family and hooked up with 2 other people (Dave & Lauren) then went over to Edr0’s parents’ crib. It was a little cool for swimming but that didn’t stop us. Kali wouldn’t get in the pool because she can’t touch the bottom but she enjoyed hanging out next to it.

Even though we are living it up like childless people, I do miss the kiddo and am wondering how he did in the tournament. I guess Shi Fu is making them wait until they get home to give us the news. Either way I am sure he is having a blast. He was very excited to be going away alone like a big boy.

Hmmm, now what should we do tomorrow?
