Actually, I’m feeling quite rested this morning. Last night I finished up my birthday weekend activities by playing some darts, including my challenge league match with Tom. I was behind the eight ball going in (don’t you love it when people use a metaphor from an unrelated sport?) needing to win all 3 legs of the game just to force a 3 game playoff.

Tom won the diddle and elected to play 501. I threw well and had about a 75 point lead when I broke 100. Then Tom threw a ton (100 points) which put him in the driver’s seat. I didn’t have an out, but left myself set for the preferred 32 out on my next turn. Which never came, because Tom hit his 34 out on his first dart. So congratulations, Tom.

YJ bought a birthday cake for me and Duke, so we enjoyed that with some beer and talk (86 candles between us, luckily we had the tall ones that count for 10).

Then it was home for me, in bed by 2300 and woke up refreshed and ready to go attack another week. Playing in a darts tourney tonight at Bless U so hopefully I can redeem myself.

Later.
