Well, it has come and gone...
Jan. 19th, 2006 11:46 amThe first of hopefully many poker nights was had last night at our house. Since I had received a poker chip set for Christmas, and my buddy Aaron happened to receive a felt table cover as well, it just seemed right to start a monthly game.
After playing some poker up at George and Kathy's last time we were up in Santa Maria, I realized how much fun it is to sit around a table with friends, drink, and chat/gossip/snark about nothing and everything. So I figured I needed to be able to do that without having to drive 200 miles North to get my fix. (We still will, but now we have the ability to play on weeknights.)
We had too much food (as always) and a decent amount of beer, which I believe is mandatory for any good poker night. No smoking cigars, but that's because it is MY house and I don't want it to smell...
I did get one picture of us playing, which you will find behind the cut here:
( Poker night at the O'Donnell's )
So there it is... I expect next month's game will be just as fun, if not more so.
