I played a couple more hundred hands this afternoon and ran well. I just wanted to post an update with a couple "interesting" hands.
Hand #1: I got a bit lost on this one and really didn't expect to win the pot. I figured the BB had JJ. Make sure you check what the villians were holding on this one.

These next 2 hands were against the same retard. The first hand was my first run-in with the guy, so I was a bit lost. The limp-reraise is what had me playing so careful:
