Haven’t posted in a while (big surprise) so I’ll give a quick update as to what has been going on. I sat out on the Vegas trip last week because of the whole under 21 thing, but it looks like that was a good time. I’m probably just gonna go to the next one regardless of age as I’ve never been there, and a few people have told me I can still do a lot without being of age.

This summer I’ve mainly been working out of my house, golfing, working out, and going out with friends. Last week I joined my Mom to Chicago as she had a little business there, and I really liked the city. Lot of friendly people – way more laid back than NYC. Since I’ve recently become obsessed with fish and sharks in particular lol, I went over to the aquarium to see what they had. Here’s a couple pics from my phone:

This was a Grand Cayman Iguana I believe – it screeched really loud haha, all the little kids were going nuts over it.

Not sure what this was, but thought it looked cool.

Couple whales waiting to get fed. They literally each ate about 100 small fish in a couple minutes.

And of course, a blurry shot of a few small sharks lol.

Besides that, I met up with a friend of mine who lives there and actually works for R Kelly, and we ate at a restaurant at the top of the John Hancock Building – I believe it was called the Signature Lounge. Got some really good crab legs there, I’d definitely go back.

I also did a little shopping there and found a few things I picked up. I’m STILL looking for a pair of sneakers I like. For the last couple years I’ve been wearing a dirty, beat up pair of G-Unit sneakers I bought online for like $30 in 10th grade haha. The search continues.

For the rest of the Summer I’m trying to put my nose down and grind, and reduce my business expenses because my recent outflow seems like the Federal Government’s. I have a tendency to really overdo things at the start of projects lol, so I’m trying to take it easy there.

Right now I’m doing a little maintenance work on Pokersite.org such as chasing payments, negotiating better deals, and shifting rooms around now that I know what converts best. I’m also adding more pages to VPB and waiting for a bunch of solid links I just got to kick in. I’m hoping to see that show up in the top 20 for “video poker” in the next couple weeks, and slowly rise from there. I have a couple of smaller sites I’m revamping too at the moment, but that’s about it for my personal stuff.

Jeremy and I are also finally getting close on our hand history replayer project that was supposed to be done about a year ago. Apparently they want to get it finished too, as they just assigned another project manager to the site that is really on top of stuff. Hopefully that will get wrapped up in a month or so and we can see how it goes.

As far as travel for the rest of the Summer, I don’t have too much on the horizon. I might be going down to Grand Cayman next week as my friend and I found an excellent deal on flight/hotel, but not sure if that is going to pan out. Also going to Puerto Rico w/ my family for a vacation in late July, I have a feeling its going to be brutally hot there.

Hmm well this has been a largely personal update, so I’m going to try to get some business posts up in the next week or two. I have a couple good ideas so stay tuned, cya.
