Has anyone seen Rounders? It's a poker movie that Betsy and I saw. It's about me and my friend who gets me out of jail and I take all his money and blow it gambling. Well, in any case, Betsy and I are organizing poker nights on Tuesdays, and we're hoping to make a profession of it. Last week, we won $3. If anyone wants to play, feel free to stop by on a Tuesday night.
Is it strange to anyone else that Doug's and Rob's lady friends don't have names? The answer is yes. I have met "Ann," Doug's lady friend, and she is a nice person and a lot of fun. It's not clear why Doug would want to bring her near the BLD, but that's not for me to judge. The most exciting news about Doug, apart from the girlfriend and job (boring!), is that he may be getting a car. For those of you who have lived in Boston, you know that Doug is a hard man to get a hold of mainly because he hides out in Brighton, where cars go to die. But soon, revitalized with some hot wheels, Doug will be takin' it to the streets. Very exciting developments in Beantown that have affected property values as far away as Wrentham. My rent went up $7 just this month. The Fed is apparently going to respond by cutting interest rates another 1/32nd of a point.
Also, Betsy and I are taking dance lessons. Originally $50 for four sessions... not bad. After one session, they told me the price would go up to $2000. Apparently I'm 40 times as hard to teach as the average person.
