preparing for the leap

In my long standing tradition of trying not to bugger everything up before we even get started, the groundwork for the Summer is already well and truly under way for me. A good 50% of the Summer package shares are already sold, I have the bones of a schedule up and on site thanks to the good folks at the WSOP and also the Venetian, who release their plans nice and early for me. The flight is booked, the car is booked, and I'm getting things organised to ensure the bulk of the trip is taken care of way up front, so I just have 3-4 weeks of trying to hit something big to worry about once I touch down.

I won't lie and say that the last year or so has been easy, it hasn't particularly. We all (well, most of us, I'm assuming) have lives, jobs, everyday crap to deal with, so I won't lament my own woes too much to the readers. In short, I'm tired from too much work and travelling, I get little time to do other stuff besides work and occasional poker these days, and am feeling a bit stuck on the hamster wheel of life on occasion. It could certainly always be worse, and despite tiredness, easily the main issue (working long draining hours), I'm not at all fazed by where I am in life right now. On the contrary, I'm actually quite excited, not just for the Summer in Las Vegas, but also for the future in general. I can't say too much at this point, mainly because I'm not too sure exactly what to say, but I will venture that changes they are a-comin'. I have a few things in motion that might see a markedly different Kevin in a year or so's time (no, I'm not going to become a woman or anything don't fret). Suffice it to say good things might just be happening, and we all could use some of those from time to time. Watch this space. 

In the meantime, prep for the Summer continues in earnest. I'm getting back into fitness, I've already lost around a stone due mainly to my occasional bouts of the Keto diet, with possibly another stone to go so I'm at fighting weight for the World Series. I'm feeling good and focused about the kind of Summer that burns a lot of other people out after only a week or two. I've played a fair bit of live poker lately, and am feeling sharp and tuned in, and am looking forward to the challenges to come. Bring it on.
