Ergorest is your friend

So far after 6 days of play in August I've totaled just over 14k hands of grinding. That's slightly under what I should have so far if I want to hit 100k hands but a couple marathon sessions should get me back on track these next couple days. There have been some pretty interesting hands but I'm too lazy to dig them out right now, so maybe next time.

I'm really proud of my latest purchase, namely a forearm support unit from ERGOREST. After seeing it at the CelebPoker office in London last week (thanks, Jim!) I knew I needed to get one because I spend so much time in front of the computer each day I might as well be as comfortable as possible. This is what it looks like:

Believe me it's the nuts so if you don't have one, get one. My next upgrade will be a better desk chair. Someone recommended the Steelcase Leap Worklounge to me but after a little research it appears like they don't offer them in Germany. If anyone finds one I can buy here please let me know and I will compensate you for your help! I think you're cutting the wrong corners by going cheap on things like desk chairs if you spend the majority of your time in them. I feel the same about beds/mattresses, as getting a good night of sleep is soooooo refreshing and healthy.

Let's see, what else? Oh yeah, I've been playing some $1k FIFA 08 matches after I saw this thread by Ansky in the HSNL forum at 2+2. Since I own everyone's soul in FIFA I obviously had to take him up on his offer. So far we've played 5 matches and I'm up 3-2 in games after some really sick battles. Its hard to tell who has the edge but I'll just pretend I do :)

Thanks to everyone for the graphics card suggestions, I now have an additional card but have been too lazy to get it installed. That should happen one of these next couple days. I realize this entry was quite boring but I'm posting it anyway because I can! muhahaha
