I've been getting alot of calls concerning the actions of this phenomena lately.
There's going to be some changes around here. I've decided that it would be best to get my fat ass moving again. By that, I mean to go back to the gym. I don't plan on slimming down and becoming a rock hard stud though. But it's alot healthier than sitting around and staring at screens all day. Maybe I'll be able to hold of the massive heart attack until I'm 50.
There will be no 3-peat for me in poker. I lost half my money in the Dealer's Choice round, then was the first player ousted in Texas Hold'Em. The guy I lost to likes to bluff alot, and many times I was the one who called it and won. This time he wasn't bluffing. My only consolation is that he ended up winning the tournament.
We have a new worker bee at the hive, and I was assigned to train her. I heard that the new bee was smart, but they didn't tell me how cute she was, or that she had a lovely southern drawl. I told myself over and over that I can not fall for this woman and that there were 3 important reasons why I can't let that happen:
1) Work would become awkward and uncomfortable
2) I don't have a snowball's chance in Hell
3) I haven't forgotten what the last woman did to me
With these 3 important points, I felt confident that I could teach the duties of the job without developing feelings for her.
For the days that followed, I did just that and had fun as well. We talked about politics, religion, families, pets, likes, dislikes, etc. We laughed at each other's jokes and schemed pranks to play on others. In short, she was trained and we both had a good time. Most importantly, I did it without falling in love. Mission Accomplished. I Rule.
When I got home from the last day of training, I found that my apartment was a little chilly. I forgot to turn my thermostat up to compensate for the seasonal change to fall. No matter, nothing beats getting into a cool bed and warming it up with one's own body heat. That way, it'll be nice and cozy all night. As I got into bed, I realized how tired I was from working and training the past few days. I was looking forward to a good night's sleep and a long weekend. I got comfortable and closed my eyes. Her face appeared. I opened my eyes.
Dammit...

A-ha... a hot worker bee... trouble in the hive for Buaku? You really should write a book about the calls you are getting. El Nino... isn't that spanish for "the nino?" I agree with Klaire, please don't have a heart attack!
