Long night at Zeppoz

Today is Friday and unlike last week I don't get it off. In fact making up hours I have to work the whole day. I spent some time getting Jim's computer set up. Shawn walked me to his storage shop to show me some of the stuff. There were motorcycles and a Corvette plus all sorts of cool things from the past. His grandpa would get in a kick of buying something, then he would buy a lot of them and then he would stop as switch. It was amazing the stuff he had. A lot of it was from the early nineteen-hundreds. When I got off work I had to go to football practice. It was my first night not being a total gimp, but I still did not practice. Practice went from seven to about nine pm.

After practice I went to Zeppoz to meet up with the some of the others. They were doing some drinking and watching of TV. John was there gambling as well. I had some beer with the others and then I got my name on the list to play poker. It took a while but finally my name came up. It was a two-four Texas Hold'em table. I had a few rakes. If I would have left when I wanted to I would have won money, but John talked me into staying. I wanted to get to bed because I had softball practice in the morning and I wanted to be rested. Instead I stayed at Zeppoz playing Texas Hold'em. Finally I went all in during a hand and lost. So, I went in and played some Texas Shoot out. I did okay there, but Russell came over and kicked my ass on every hand.

I gave up and went home. It was about three-thirty by the time I was in bed.
