I'm in the process of moving into a new apartment. It's going pretty well considering out limited budget and resources. For one, no truck or SUV to move stuff with. No money to rent a truck. So we spent 2 days driving around in my step-dad's 54' Ford pickup truck which is rust-stained to shit and way before power steering. There's a million things wrong with it and let's just say driving that beast is a constant rollercoaster at a subpar amusement park where you don't trust the tracks at all. We're about halfway in which means a couch and coffee table but no entertainment center, TV or end tables. It means 1 bookshelf in the office but enough books to fill another 2 sitting on the ground.
So we've got a few more things we need to go pickup but not sure how to approach it since gas for my step-dad's truck is ridiculously expensive but I'm not sure renting a truck would be much better. I guess a bit easier on the heart since I wouldn't be having so many near heart attacks. We're scouring Craig's List and flea markets ($15 for our coffee table, whee!) and doing occasional runs into Target looking for the cheapest things we can find. Despite our tight wallets we've done quite well and the place is starting to look very nice, especially thanks to my GF's photo's that we've hung all over the walls. She has ambitions for professional photography and worked for Cosmo a bit... no, we don't have pic's of models everywhere. When she lived in India she took many great street portraits and they make for great eye candy along our walls.
I'm losing my focus here...
Haven't had much time for poker over the last few days. I normally read every post on the forums and am sitting around waiting for someone to do a new blog or post a new hand. Now I have no clue what the hell's going on anymore but that's ok cause I've spent some time in the real world with my lovely lady (as I like to call her). Talking about her, here's a few new pics that I haven't posted yet (pics in spoiler):
+ Show Spoiler +
I got wood...
Halloween and she's Cleopatra!
I'm a priest... BUDDY CHRIST!
Old pic from India and we're so in love...ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
I got her a fancy haircut/coloring for her bday
Anyway, moving on to moving in, har har. It's very nice to be in our own place again as we've had to crash with the 'rents for the last few months. Originally we thought we'd be moving to Costa Rica in September to do some work down there, but it got delayed to January. Then in January things got canceled which is good with me cause Colorado is where I want to be. I travel a lot and this is where I like to come home too. Plus, for the first time in my life I have a woman I love and we're dedicated to each other, while I'm also making enough money to live comfortably doing what I want. Finally real independence... and it's great.
Once I get fully moved in we'll do some pics and show it off a bit. Till then I'm gonna be kinda scarce though I need to get back onto the poker train ASAP to make some cash to finance all the millions of little things you need when moving into a new place. Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you what this place is like... it's a 2 bedroom townhouse. The bedrooms are upstairs along with a full bath. Downstairs is a large living room, a half bath and a full kitchen with a dinning area. We even have a basement with a washer/dryer down there (installing tomorrow). Pretty spacious and by far the best place I've ever lived on my own. It keeps getting better and better as we furnish it and I think it's going to be pretty pimp by the time we're done.
That's all for now. GL @ the tables mates (shout out to FruityPro)
PS - Sadly I'm posting this @ 1am so it will probably get 0 views and be bumped from the front page before any of my friends see it. That's life isn't it?

Very nice, good luck in life and at the tables (not against me though  )
And BTW I thought Indian girls are only allowed to date Indian guys (as a tradition)!? |

Your using the wrong terms Brett, if your engaged she's not your GF anymore. |

hahahahaha lmao!
ah so true eh, that's how we roll ^^
Thanks all for the comments. To clarify a few things - yes we're engaged dan but when I write "fiance" I get lots of "when are you getting married" Q's and we haven't set a date so it's easier to just say GF for now. Also, she's not Indian, she's Tibetan. She just grew up in India. Lastly, I love her nose ring. That is also the norm in India - all woman have one cause it has something to do with fertility. Even like baby girls have nose rings, it's kinda weird. |
