Abbreviation

Another damned whacked Wednesday, so I’m going to need to keep it short and sweet today. Well, short anyway.

Yesterday was my “lazy” day–grocery shopping instead of hiking. I also intended to renew my visa, but the immigration office had a lazy day too–closed for the Lunar New Year. No issues getting into Royal without a vax card, so that’s something to be thankful for I suppose.

Played in the dart tournament last night. Played just well enough to win, but I reckon that’s all you need to do. I honestly don’t even care that much about winning or losing. In fact, if I reach the finals I always offer my opponent a “tie” and just split the pot 50-50. We played doubles last night and reached the finals from the loser’s bracket. Our opponent did not offer the tie option, so we played it out. That motivated me to play hard for the victory and I threw my best darts of the night.

Sweet victory!

There was a time when I was a much better darts player. Facebook reminded me that it was only seven years ago that I threw my best game of 501 ever.

A 15 dart out is professional-level quality throwing. I’ve never replicated that performance, but it’s good to remember what I’m capable of.

A few of my fellow players joined me at the Car Wash resto-bar for food and beers after the tourney. A nice way to end the evening.

Had breakfast with the GF at Sit-n-Bull this morning, then I did the Wednesday Walkers group hike. I’ll post some photos of that tomorrow.

Dart league this afternoon. In fact, I need to hit the shower now and get my ass ready to play.

Today is also my younger brother Greg’s birthday.

He’s 65 now. Of course, I’m still the handsome one.

Gotta go, back with more tomorrow I hope.

  1. Since you never label who’s who in these brother photos, it’s hard to know whom I’m looking at. Anyway, Happy Birthday, Greg!

    Congrats on the win.
