Stage 1 Complete

I just returned from Phoenix, and let's just say that that town kicked my ass. The business part of the trip was difficult. I was told to present one thing and the customer was expecting something different. I had to scramble and change from what I had prepared to something the customer could use. The seemed pleased, but I would imagine that they would have been more pleased with proper preparation.

The poker part of the trip was brutal. I was card dead from the start. I had 5 sessions in various casinos and 4 were losers. The one winning session was at the only casino that offered $2-4 limit holdem, so my winning were small. That is not a good warm up for Vegas.

As I write this, I am seriously considering postponing my trip to Vegas by a day. I'm going to wait and see how I feel in the morning.

So that completes stage 1 on this odyssey. Tomorrow is the NASCAR race here in Charlotte and then Vegas and Vancouver. Hold on tight. It’s getting a little bumpy.
