Update, and weekend preview


I am so freaking tired this week! My cold is winding down and almost gone, but that was the biggest reason I'm dragging, along with a general lack of sleep, but the lack of sleep has been for good reasons :) Caprice and I changed our Facebook status' too! Very exciting. Things are going well.

So Monday I went out with Slacks, Gross, BC, Hip, ...and maybe another 1-2 guys to watch MNF and eat $1 steaks at Pearl Rd Tavern in Clevetown. Not a bad place, but the neighborhood could be better. The cheap steaks were decent. If you get more than 1, you have to get a $3.50 side. I got the mash/gravy, which was damn good. They were real, and they were spectacular. The pic with the pissing chick is a huge 8' mural in the men's room. File that one under WTF???

So I got home late Monday night after stopping to see Caprice. We'd seen each other every day since our first date on the 22nd, and the streak just ended last night after 12 days. Stayed until pretty late on Tuesday night as well.

So Wednesday, I really wanted to stay home and veg, read my new book (I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, which is great so far. I have many similar stories, lol) and maybe catch up on some Netflix videos I have stacked up, but later in the day at work I was feeling a bit better so decided to join the gang for trivia. New gang this week too. Mr John Coleman was there along with Doug Poker and TK. Meats brought his friend Dave. We were in 2nd place going into the final question, bet it all, and came up busto. Ah well, we gave it a shot. Good times either way. Stopped by a packed Train Station on the way home and ran into Candy Weese-Simpson. Hadn't seen her in a while but we laughed about Rob's wedding story and my sweaty suit. Ask me to tell you the story sometime.

2 great weekends coming up! Get to hang with Caprice much of this weekend along with some poker and the Browns-Pats game on Sunday. Stag day at the stadium...Me, Ray, Mark, and Kurt. Game on!

Gonna cook for Caprice Friday night to show off my mad skills. We'll probably just stay in. Saturday we might go phone shopping for her, she wants to sign up with Sprint. I'm recommending an HTC EVO...sweet Droid phone.

Next weekend Caprice is coming to the Browns-Jets game with me. Should be fun.

Oh! The Black Friday Road Trip is returning! I set it up on the calendar and I think we have 8 people going so far, should be a blast. We're gonna hit up Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh. No way I'm driving if it snows! LOL, you've heard that story.

More poker news...I want to have a very low stakes, 6-drink minimum game at my place sometime in December while Dave is on break. I may even toss in a 2-table $50 donkfest as well.

That's about it for now. Life is good.
