Not much to say relating to poker today but I wanted to get an update on the blog so here are just some random things passing through my mind on this Firday afternoon:

- I had a very nice Easter with my family. Holidays are not always the best and they have been tougher these last few years since I got divorced but I was happy that this one worked out pretty good.

- March Madnesss is in full swing and the madness seemed to carry over from basketball to poker during the 1st and 2nd round games last week. I guess I could see people drinking and watching basketball and trying to play some online poker as a reason for the wacky play at the tables last week.

- I love music. It has always played an important role in my life but I will say that ever since I had children I have gone through stretches where it takes a back seat to other things. It isn’t getting better as they get older either becuase now they want control of the radio in the car!! I have an itunes gift card and need some suggestions for new music to buy since I’m behind the times at the moment.

- My juggling act between poker and parenting has been going poorly lately. Mostly because I’ve been having my children with me more days/week than I normally do. This is a good thing because I enjoy spending time with them but it creates some problems for me when I can’t figure out when to get “my work” done.

- The 1st quarter of the year is just about over and I have not played a single hand of live poker this year (other than my friendly home game.) This is somewhat disappointing because I really felt like I had made some good progress in December when I played in the Circuit event at Harrahs. Hopefully, I’ll find the time to play something soon.

- Life is very strange. This is not something I just realized but something I continue to think about each day. We really never know what will happen next.

I knew I wasn’t playing as poorly as my results indicated in February. Tournament poker has quite a bit of luck involved and one break can completely change your month from bad to good or vice versa. So far in March, we are on the good side of variance and luck and hopefully I’ll be able to stay there long enough to get a few more big final tables before the end of the month.
