Running Good When it Doesn't Really Count

I finally woke up somewhat early for me today and there was no way that I'd get in less than 7 hrs from 1-8pm. Of course 30 minutes into loading games, everything is lagging like mad, I get white screens of death on individual tables, I time out everywhere and miss a good 20 minutes of blinds. I closed stars, it worked fine after that and I ended 27 tables down like 60. Not a big deal. So of course I'm not really looking forward to playing after that b/c of technical issues, but I do anyways and I get 1 1st out of 121 games, only for a $400 loss on the day. Looks like the prop bet isn't going to work out (again!), even though I made such ridiculously easy terms for it (12k profit, 3k games). 

To cheer myself up after running badly for 2 months (I am easily down like 10k in EV I would suspect), I bought a wii. Only got 2 games, mario kart and super smash, but plan on getting mario party 8 (I knew I forgot to buy something), some cheap sonic game and donkey kong when it comes out. The cashier (who was asian but pudgy) was trying to push me on the warranty and obv I said no. She then says she can give me a free nunchuk ($25 value) if I get the $50 2 yr warranty. Seems like a decent deal so I take it. She tries to enter in the free nunchuk (secondary wii remote) into the computer but can't get it to work, and I kind of smirk at her, laughing to myself and I think it's pretty obvious. She gives up and says she'll give me 2 of them for free since she can't enter it in properly. Basically I got the $50 warranty for free so that was pretty cool. Run good one time I guess lol.

Looking forward to finishing off my 3k games tomorrow, playing some wii, going to "The Dears" concert on April 30th and then maybe taking 1-2 days off to unwind from poker. This year has definitely not turned out like I had envisioned initially. I would've thought I'd be up 40-60k by now, but instead it's like 25 lol. Oh well, I have built up so much run goodness that I'm due to win a WSOP bracelet or something.

Really hoping I can get away from the rant posts soon because there's only so many ways to say "I lost, wtf!" or "omg, I run bad."
