Obsessed with darts

Over the past few weeks my mates and I have been following the Premier League Darts with a keen interest. We began gambling on it and playing a bit ourselves, and this has flourished lately into a full-on obsession - and I've got to say I'm loving it!

Last night Covey, Lawrence, Daz and I played for over four hours straight, and Daz was playing INCREDIBLY. I mean, seriously well. He scored 180, the only time I've seen anyone do it, and absolutely destroyed me and Covey before Lawrence turned up. It sounds pathetic, and it is, but I was genuinely sickened by how well he was playing, hahaha! The rest of us were playing well, but Daz killed us, completely and utterly. The real test though is whether he will ever play like that again, which I must say is pretty damn unlikely! I'll probably be made to look back on this post and eat my words, but never mind. If that happens, Daz could actually have a stab at becoming a darts ringer, the standard was that high. Anyway, enough about darts.

I ended up not having any bets yesterday after all, there was just nothing out there that tickled my fancy. Might have one or two today, or maybe not. I've already played a bit of poker and that went well, but my roll is still depleted a bit after the downswing of the last fortnight or so. The rest of the day will consist of my usual routine... a mixture of coffee, cards, guitar, maybe some more darts.

Tomorrow, back to the grind at work. It will be a big day, and I will finish it either pretty happy or extremely angry/down. Basically I have to do some stuff that will determine if I pass the training course, and to be honest it could go either way. I know the others on the course are studying their brains out at home, but I just can't/won't do that. Last week I spent at least 60 hours out of the house due to work, and I'm not bringing it home with me as well.

Right, I need another cappuccino.

PS. I was reading back through some of my recent entries, sorry for the typos. Guess I should really proof-read this stuff but hey ho
