Parenting.......

While I have been playing more poker as of late this is a non-poker entry.

A funny incident occurred at my house between myself and my 4.5 year old son. We were playing some nerf hoops (and I was getting schooled by my son) and he adding the 2 points from his last monster dunk to his score. As he was doing this, he pointed to his middle finger and referred to it as the "dirty finger".

I was shocked! While he has floored me before with some of the words he's said, "stores" (as relates to pilgrims stocking up food for the winter) and more recently he correctly pronounced and used the word "synonyms".

Needless to say I was upset about the "dirty finger" incident and started to question him about it. I asked him "who told you that?", "was it so and so", "where did you hear that?" and so on. He said that nobody had told him that and he just made it up. I said I didn't believe him and threatened him with early bedtime and no snack, but he wouldn't give in. (Geeze I sound like a dick). This went on for a couple of minutes with no resolution, all the while my wife and I were having a hard time no smiling/laughing, because it was kinda funny.

Finally, my wife went over to him to talk some more, and wouldn't you know it, his finger was actually dirty! I felt horrible for accusing him. He shook it off and ended up schooling me 10-6 in our basketball game!

Poker Update

I have played some, winning a $10+1, and finishing second in a $6+$0.60, but also lost $12± playing $50NL, $11 in a SNG. While Idon'tt have the exact results for everything I played here is where I stand.

Results
$426.25 Previous Balance
$426.80 Current Balance (+$126.80)

I've also decided that when I clear portions of my bonus, I will include those in my results.
