Moving up in the Money

I love "moving up in the money" when I am in the money in a tournament. It is so much fun and it really puts you in the ultimate zone. Every play is either a bigger pay day or your way out of the tourney.
Yesterday, I played the 9k guaranteed on UB and I placed 14/103 for an $80 profit, blah. At least I cashed. Last night, we went to the club and I placed first out of 23 players for a $750 profit. Not much, but it feels good to come in first. Especially when my 44 held up against pkt KK. =)
I want to play the 9k guaranteed today as well, but I am not sure if I will. I have to really concentrate on building my account before I invest in more 100$ events. Maybe Jon will buy a piece of me =).
I also placed 1st and second in two $50 sngs on Full tilt. Even though I only have a little over 300$ in my FT account, it started with 80$, so it has been nicely increasing over the last week.
On the apartment front, no offers and no one else has come to see it. Sigh. I have a feeling it will take a while to sell.
On the car front, a few inquiries on it, so we will see. It is a very reasonable price for my car, I think. Below Kelly Blue Book value and in great condition. We just started advertising it on a new site so hopefully that will help us sell it more quickly.
Other than that, not much else. Work is slow and boring and dull and so not what I want to do with my life. I cannot wait to start my poker career. You know my plan- sell apartment and move to AC. Alternate plan- cash huge ($6figure) in a tournament, sublet apartment, and move to A.C. We will see what happens.
Back to work, more later.
Good luck and peace,
Lucky C.
