I played darts for the first time in a couple of weeks last night. It’s truly odd that these long layoffs don’t seem to affect the overall quality of my game. Or maybe I’m just lucky. I was definitely lucky in the “luck of the draw” when I pulled Steve, the Englishman who doesn’t drink, as my partner on the night.
Anyway, we were both on it and didn’t lose a leg throughout the tournament. Unstoppable we were! These days I only play when the mood strikes me and I try to just keep it fun. Maybe that’s the secret to my success. That and an awesome partner.
Tonight I’ll be back to Alley Cats to participate in the Christmas celebration. I’ve got an envelope I’ll be gifting each of the girls. Ho-Ho-Ho!
Oh, and I made brownies.
Saturday night in the Barrio! Let’s roll!
Brownies look great. Congrats on the win, and on being teamed up with the guy who’s normally your rival. Must be nice to feel like an unstoppable force.
The big, golden Chinese character on the red envelope is pronounced “bok” in Korean. It can mean either happiness or good fortune. When Koreans say, “Saehae bok mani badeuseyo” on New Year’s Day, that’s the same “bok”: may you receive much happiness in the new year. I’m sure that, thanks to your gifts, many of the girls will indeed receive much happiness.
Wow, those gift envelopes were the only ones available. I fleetingly wondered what the meaning of the character was. Yeah, the concept of bok fits nicely with the monetary gift to a hard-working Filipina. Thanks for the education!
