First place gets the money, second place gets a “nice try”. I like this photo because it’s a little ambiguous about which is which…

The Columbia Area Darts Association (CADA) hosted it’s first ever qualifying event yesterday.  We had six players vying for paid entry ($110!) to the ADO Regional Cricket Qualifier next month in Charleston, SC.  It was a round robin format, with each player playing the other players 3 legs of Cricket.  Winner of the most legs on the day takes home the prize money.

I had a good day of darts, going 2-1, 3-0, 2-1, 2-1 and 1-2.  Well, the 1-2 at the end stung a little, but it was one of those situations where I threw well but my opponent threw better.  Nothing to be done about that.  Anyway, I’m the one in the photo above giving the money away.

After the darts were done, a group of us went out to try Columbia’s newest Korean restaurant–The Korea Garden.

Jee Yeun is the expert and she declared the food at Korea Garden to be excellent. I enjoyed the galbi and “ding dong” jiggae very much as well…

And finally, this morning’s weigh-in finds me at 232.5, down 2.5 pounds from last week.  It is good to be going in the right direction again.  Girth remains stubbornly unchanged at 44″.  If you are keeping score at home, I’ve lost 46 pounds since February.

Onward and downward!
