This picture pretty much sums up what happened on Saturday night.\u00c2\u00a0 But let me start from the very beginning and give you a play by play of how the weekend went.<\/p>\n
Friday night was spent at Raymond and Cherisse’s house.\u00c2\u00a0 He hosted a $20 buy-in poker game.\u00c2\u00a0 I made the mistake of freakin’ inviting Mano and he won.\u00c2\u00a0 Ugh.\u00c2\u00a0 No surprise there, though.<\/p>\n
The funny thing is Mano lives just around the corner.\u00c2\u00a0 He lived so close that all he had to do was walk.\u00c2\u00a0 I knew that the game would be in his general vicinity so I told him when I invited him that it was right by his house and it turned out to be REALLY right by his house!<\/p>\n
It was a pretty disappointing game.\u00c2\u00a0 Brian got knocked out first.\u00c2\u00a0 I got knocked out second.\u00c2\u00a0 I wore my lucky shirt, too!\u00c2\u00a0 Which I’ve proven now, doesn’t work on poker games, only on exams.\u00c2\u00a0 I wore the lucky “I’m blogging this..” shirt to my first VB exam and got a 102.\u00c2\u00a0 For the second VB exam I wore the same shirt and scored a 103.\u00c2\u00a0 Thinking that the luck would follow, I wore it to poker the same evening as exam number 2 and did horrible.\u00c2\u00a0 I wore it again on Friday night and again did poorly.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s just been a horrible week for poker altogether.<\/p>\n
Saturday morning we woke up really early to drive to KC to eat some sushi at one of my favorite restos at the Plaza, Kona Grill.\u00c2\u00a0 After eating some good food, we went and hit Armani Exchange, Abercrombie and Fitch and J.Crew for a major shopping binge.\u00c2\u00a0 It almost felt like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman (not quite the $$ damage, though, but close).<\/p>\n
Due to our shopping binge, we left KC late which made me run late for my makeup appointment at Origins.\u00c2\u00a0 Sarah was a real trooper, though.\u00c2\u00a0 She rescheduled my appointment for 5:30 PM.\u00c2\u00a0 We just drove straight from KC to the mall to make my appointment and didn’t even stop at the house.<\/p>\n
TO BE CONTINUED…<\/p>\n
Okay, I’ll have to continue this later.. I gotta go get ready for dinner at the Outback with Sarah, Brian and Sarah’s friend Benny (we get to meet him for the first time). I will definitely pickup where I left off when I return, I promise!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
