Yep. Confirmed when I woke up this morning that moving will be the single best choice I've ever made for myself, based on weather ALONE. That doesn't even include all the wonderful possibilities and opportunities that lie ahead - I just want sun to start.

Ok, so last night, I attempted a couple more of those WSOP Main Event race freerolls, while stalking Scott and BillBell in their respective tournaments. You have to finish top 2 out of 225 people to move on. I had 3 losses and then....a WIN! So I play tonight at 9:40. Which is pushing it, because I have a family event to attend at 6pm, so here's hoping I can be home and settled in to play this. If I finish top 2 again, I go on to the finals, which is Sunday at 4:15. The top 3 winners of that get a $10000 main event seat. So needless to say, this is no joke of a freeroll like some of them are.....

I like Friday, because we have this little family breakfast at my school, and as we know, I'm all about the eating. Each Friday, some department is in charge of breakfast. This Friday was a bit craptastic, as there were bagels and donuts and that was about it. Some Fridays, it is pretty extravagant - so I'm not complaining about free food by any means, BUT the amazing Fridays make today's choices look kind of bleak. But it's a fun little time to socialize and everyone is giving me shit and calling me "quitter" and joking that I will go out and become a go-go dancer or a stripper (not in this lifetime, I assure you that). Anyway, I grew a little tired of the banter, so came back to hole up in my room and do my daily rambling.

This morning on the radio, the Morning Zoo was talking about Mariah Carey. I have kind of a love/hate relationship with this woman. I was a HUGE fan back when she first became popular, and she was the poor girl who spent a lot of nights not eating, etc. She made a huge star of herself and is a true vocal talent. But then she kind of became a huge Hollywood bitch and started doing all this gangster music and video and I just lost my taste for her entirely. So I am off and on about her.

This morning, however, I heard something I never knew before. She apparently, about a year or so ago, was dating Eminem (mistake #1, this guy is just not right, something very creepy and messed up going on there, but I digress). Apparently, she had left him some voicemails, nothing like blatantly sexual or nasty or anything, but kind of intimate and with some mild details of their encounters, etc. Well, come to find out, he hung on to these voicemails (unbeknownst to Mariah) and when she decided she didn't want to be involved with him anymore, he stood on a stage in front of 30,000 people at his concert and played the voicemails over the microphone.

And at once, I felt sympathy for Mariah Carey and am back to not hating her again. How appalling is that?? In this day, (probably magnified more in Hollywood, but I guarantee you this happens in "real" life too) you basically cannot say or do anything with any person, even if you think you can trust them, or think they care about you because you have to be afraid that private details will be used against you at any time. I mean, it was only voicemails, and I'm sure we can all think of worse things to be broadcast about their relationship. But it doesn't make it any less hurtful or embarassing to her. It kind of started the morning out on a disgusted note for me.

That's about it. I am tired and still haven't been sleeping well, but I'm excited to get down to Caesar's, play some satellites and the ladies event and represent the forum hopefully!
