Yet another reason for my sister to give me funny looks.

The other day, I was sitting in the living room with my sister and I think we were waiting for something to come on TV. I have no idea what day it actually was, maybe Sunday but I am not sure. Anyway, I was flipping through the channels and came across a poker game, so I watched it. My sister thought I was very weird for some reason, but I do enjoy watching poker on occasion. It is the one thing on the sports network that I will actually watch, aside from the Olympics. I think I like watching it because it can be pretty suspenseful while also being lowkey. Also, I can actually follow it. I want to say that I enjoy it because I used to work in a casino, in actuality, I started watching it long before I started working at the casino. While we did watch the occasional poker game on the TV in the break room at the casino, we also watched a good many other things as well such as a plethora of shows about house flipping which I do not continue to watch (although I might if we actually TLC or whatever channel has them). I also think I surprised my sister by telling her that I had a favourite poker player because well, how many people watch enough poker to have chose favourites? Or remember the players from game to game? Anyway, today I didn't have a lot to do so I found another poker game and had an enjoyable time watching it. This game actually had my favourite player in it so I was actually even more interested in it. When it comes to actually playing poker, I suck but I do enjoy watching the professionals play. Especially on TV. I don't think I would ever go somewhere to watch it in the audience. So today's favourite thing is watching poker on TV.

In other news, I wore my glasses for the first time in months the other day so I could actually see what was happening in the poker game. Go figure.
