Default Finally, A winning session

I know all about down swings and variance and don't need the lectures. No real reason to post this other than....
well there is no real reason.

I've been playing .05/.10 to build up a bankroll to play higher limits. After the first 1000 hands I was up 23 BB/100. I knew that wasn't sustainable but still thought I was some sort of poker God. Then came the downswing. -20 BB/100 over the next 1000. Full houses loosing on the river, TPTK loosing to someone who played 45o to a 3-bet preflop, a flush on the river beating nut straight, etc.

Anyway, just finished playing 200 hands and was up 14 BB for the session. Whoda thunk $1.40 would ever seem like a big deal. I think I lost more than that when change fell out of the hole in my pocket the other day.
