A Time and Season for Everything

I almost forgot that I had this blog. It wasn't until I saw it in my bookmarks that I remembered. Maybe my blogging career is just a phase. I go through lots of those.


For example: four or five months back
I all of the sudden wanted to be good at poker. So I read a lot of books, and played a lot online (almost every day). I am now really good. I understand position poker, can calculate pot odds quickly, and can consistently go really far in my neighborhood games. In fact, I haven't missed a final table since. I still like the game, but I
haven't really played in a couple of months...no desire.


There was one point where I wanted a motorcylce (which I still do, but I'm not obsessed with it). I would research different kinds, look on craigslist every day, etc. That went on for a few months...but reality must have set in that I have many more things to spend money on, and I don't necessarily want to fight that fight with Heidi.

I have more examples, but I hesitate to let the three people who read this blog know precisely how weird I really am. For those three: Do you have strange phases/obsessions?

Should this blog go by way of my other phases...?
