the weekend in review

i'm happy to say that poker nite went _great_ as we had 9 people play and i finished in the money for the first time! i placed second, took $36, and bought those washington nationals hats i mentioned. from here on they'll be my poker playing hats i guess haha.
we did indeed get to meet up with my high school friend julie for lunch at chili's in crystal city. best buds in high school, but sadly - due to our own admitted laziness - this was only the 2nd time we've seen each other in the 2 years she's lived here. she's doing great for herself and is still working for our u.s. representative from our home district.
i started a madden franchise with the colts, but i get to play so infrequently that i'm still in the preseason haha
