Recent thoughts too long for Twitter

- I applied to play in PokerStars’ World Blogger Championship of Online Poker (WBCOOP).  I doubt they’ll accept my application, given how often I update this here blog.

- Speaking of PokerStars, I’m intrigued by the North American Poker Tour they recently announced.  There is going to be a stop at Mohegan Sun as part of that tour, so I’ll have to check it out.

- My favorite songs from 2009 (or that I discovered in 2009) are the following, in no particular order.

  • “If Rap Gets Jealous”  – K’Naan
  • “Stillness Is the Move” – Dirty Projectors
  • “Around the Bend” – The Asteroids Galaxy Tour
  • “Skinny Love” – Bon Iver
  • “Smith Hill” – Deer Tick
  • “Help I’m Alive” – Metric
  • “Eet” – Regina Spektor
  • “Black River Killer” – Blitzen Trapper
  • “Good Girls Go Bad” – Cobra Starship
  • “Won’t Want for Love (Margaret in the Taiga)” and “The Hazards of Love 2 (Wager All)” – The Decemberists
  • “Brother” and “The Fixer” – Pearl Jam

- I love my Blackberry Tour much more than either of my Palm Treos, but I wish there were an easy way to keep documents (spreadsheets, text files, etc.) synched on the Blackberry without spending $70 of Documents to Go Premium.  Do any other smartphones do this well without exorbitant costs?

- 9 months until my wedding. Wow

- Speaking of the wedding, the weight loss has begun.  I’m 212 right now, but I’d like to be 175-180 by then.  This week, I’ve started going back to the gym and cut out the crap from my diet.  I’m so very embarrassed about how out of shape I am right now.  I can barely get through a warmup without stopping for a breather.  But thanks for all of the positive comments on Twitter and Facebook so far.

- I still haven’t upgraded WordPress yet.
