By this time, next month you'll be in the new digs, demolishing the Borgata NL games and posting an awesome trip report about a set over set stunner for serious bucks. The other players will probably throw the poker room manager a few bucks to hire you, just to get you off their side of the felt. I feel it!

So I am back again from another trip from the Atlantic City area. It was a productive trip, but it did not go the way I had wanted it to. First, there was tons of traffic on the Parkway so it took a lot longer than expected to get down to the first house. Because of the delay, the landlord was not able to meet with me which means I have to take another 2 hour trip down sometime next week I assume to meet with him if he approves of my (and my co-signers) application/credit report. I don't see why he wouldn't, but still keep those fingers crossed. I did get to see the area of the first apartment as well as the outside of the place. It is a Victorian home that is split into 4 separate apartments. Mine is on the bottom floor which I am not too excited about, but what are you gonna do? The area was a bit hicky and note developed the way I would like, but again I am taking what I can get right now. I am looking forward to seeing the inside of the place because it looks like its a fairly large 1 bedroom 1 bath compared to all the other places I have been looking.

After that, we make our way to the next apartment calling the landlord on the way. He doesn't answer and never returned any of my calls which really upsets me. This is the place that I had a really great feeling about. It is a much much smaller place, but its also a lot closer to A.C. and its one block from the beach. It clearly had its positives, but I don't know about the size it looks really small. I wish I could have seen the inside, but it seems to me that the landlord may not want to sell to me or something. I also think he gave me his work number by accident, which why would he been in the office on a Saturday. I am nervously waiting for a call possibly Monday from him when he goes to work and gets my message.

So basically I have nothing new to report. Well I do have one thing, if one of these places don't work all my plans of the past year are going to fall apart. I have set myself up with a backup plan just incase everything falls apart. The next few days are going to change my life one way or another. I may be living in a completely new place on my own for the first time or I may be stuck at home like a little immature jobless baby. If I don't get down there and in dealers school by the end of the month I will not have gained the experience needed to earn myself a cash dealing job by the time the spring rolls around. If that does not happen I will not be able to afford grad school and may be forced to take out another loan.

Within the next few days I would love to get all this stress out of the way and begin to start posting some hands and some of the learning and mistakes that I am going through. It has been a long few months and everything is coming down to right now. I can't play under this kind of stress. I have a hard enough time taking beats as it is right now (I am on a horrible downswing/horrible play time) so playing now will enhance those emotions even more. I have been snapping at people all week, I am usually a very passive person, but this whole situation is consuming me. Cross those fingers guys.
