update again

friday: lost at 5:30. mainly because we played like crap; the way we were playing, we deserved to lose. drank heavily, got home late, yay for the metabolism getting speedier -- by the time [livejournal.com profile] darthrami got home to let me in, i had a headache, which turned out to be the hangover i'd expected to have the following morning. so i slept through the hangover, and woke up feeling spiffy.

saturday: won at 12:45, and about damn time. hurried back from the club to [livejournal.com profile] darthrami and [livejournal.com profile] therealjae's birthday party, which is what it was, no matter what they say. :-) hung out for a bit with various people, it was fun, yay for hanging out. hurried back to the club to play at 10:00. won at 10:00, in actually a sort of embarrassing manner. it's not fun when you're killing the opponent and feeling guilty enough not to bother hanging the score. not at this level, anyway. fun! social! not fun when it's like 12 to 1 after four ends. drank moderately, managed to become the subject of two rumors at once even though [livejournal.com profile] darthrami wasn't even there, got home late, still had a bit of the hangover when i woke up this morning this time, because i had to get up much earlier.

sunday: won (the fifth event final) at 10:15. yay us. yay shiny pin! we were the only team from our club to win any events at all, actually -- we had finalists in the second, but they lost, and in the first and third our teams lost in the semis, and one of the teams in the fourth was skipped by the president of our club but the other three players were his brother and two other guys from his home town in canada, so the team didn't count as one of ours (plus they lost). so we feel Special, even though what we won was the Event For People Who Didn't Get Their Shit Together Until The Third Game. :-)

now: schoolwork, because damn am i behind.

it's customary for event winners (and usually also finalists) to get pins commemorating the achievement. sort of like medals, only not quite. :-)
