Rest Day - Lilongwe

Met up with an old friend, Nimia, today! Great fun. We reminisced about our wild and crazy days, from back when. We were laughing about how we've both become a bit boring since then. This blog may not indicate it, but my normal life pretty much consists of: work, run, watch t.v., sleep. SLEEP, by the way. Nimia and I were talking about how we didn't seem to need any sleep back then. How was that possible? I need LOTS of sleep now!

Felt head-achy most of the day, took several panadols throughout the day. Otherwise, felt o.k.

In the evening, played one last game of poker with George and Tiffany. That was fun. I went out when I went all in with George on the following hand.

Flop: 3d 9c 10h

Me: Jc Ah
George: Qh Kd

I had the upper hand, as I just had to avoid a J, Q, or K on the next 2 cards. Means my chances of winning were about 36/45 * 35/44 = 64%. A bit higher even, since if he hit the Q or K, I could still win if I hit the A. But... He hit his queen and I went out.

Didn't mind too much because I was feeling very tired and head-achy, so went to bed (8:00 p.m.). Planned to get up early and say good-bye to all my friends as the headed off for Zambia.
