It seems like this time of year is packed fuller than any other time. I think the only night this week that I am not busy doing something is Thursday. Yikes. This weekend was pretty fun. On Saturday, Diane and I made some apple crisp and headed over to her work's potluck Christmas party. The food that people brought was amazing ... I ate entirely too much, but it was super tasty. It's a little weird going to the party though since I didn't really know anyone. I guess I'm still not too comfortable in a setting where I don't really know anyone. The people were nice, but I'm not a strong conversationalist, so there's usually too much awkward silence for my comfort level. Ah well, the food was good!

On Sunday I spent the afternoon at home playing some poker for the first time in a little while. I ended up with a pretty profitable being up more than 4 stacks playing 100NL. I enjoy winning! The session started out real slow. I stacked off with KK against a set, but made that back fairly quickly when my AK beat AQ when we both flopped two pair. After that I went on a pretty big rush, flopping several sets as well as winning a KK versus AK allin preflop situation. There were a few significant setbacks but I kept the hot streak going throughout most of the session to make a tidy profit. Cake poker is turning into a pretty nice place to play. I think I've pretty much decided to clear the deposit bonus there before moving on. I'm about 1/3 the way through that now, and am already up quite a bit. I've heard other people describe cake poker being pretty soft, and I think I'm agreeing with them.

This week I have a dinner party to go to, as well as my condo's annual general meeting, and an evening to play poker with the members of the UofA CPRG. Should be a fun week!
