The Beginning - 3 Reasons to not start this Blog

Reason No. One - It's just before 9pm and my 21 month old daughter is still not asleep. She's been crying out 'DADDY! DADDY' from her cot. Even though it's very stressful hearing her crying, part of me loves that she calls me and not mummy :0) Anyway, she's downstairs now sat on her mummy's knee, I wouldn't be that heartless to write a blog as she lay there crying. Anyway, Poker, finding the time to play when you're a parent can be very difficult, well it is for me anyway. Parenthood is tough, so I try to play as and when I can.

Reason No. Two - I've had a drink, only a few glasses of wine, but a drink all the same. I needed it after the evening I've had. I'm actually playing poker as we speak, I normally never play after a drink but I'm making an exception tonight, so far it's not been the best decision i've ever made as I've been rivered twice by the same player after getting it all in good on the turn, and even though drink hasn't played a part, maybe he wouldn't have got there if I hadn't have had 3 glasses of Rioja.(still surviving though)


Reason No. Three - Had a bit of a 'tiff' with the missus tonight, nothing major, in fact nothing at all really, just the general stresses that having a young daughter brings. (I do understand that anyone who isn't a parent has no interest whatsoever in hearing about parent things, so i'll keep it short) I'm trying my hardest not to just waffle on, I can just get caught in the moment when writing and just splurt out all my thoughts without thinking, like a diary, but I'm going to try and keep this blog somewhat normal and not the 'Diary Of A Madman' (maybe)
