First to recap: The curling season ended on April 19th. After an unexpected run through the playoffs, our mens team ended up in the final, at the same time as our mixed team (following that expected run). We decided I would skip the mixed team and Josh would skip the mens team. We were on neighbouring sheets for Finals Night, so it was easy to keep an eye on each other. As fate would have it, we ended up winning both games and being named Club Champion for both. Winning the Mixed wasn't a huge shock (as arrogant as that may sound), but Mens was a real treat... we beat the first, second, and third seed on our way to the championship. We were 7th going into it. I finished the year winning 61 of my 95 games, a percentage around .642. I'll take it.
And then there were a bunch of Jays games. They've been fun so far, but the Toronto bats are a little inconsistent, sparking my early worries. I did manage to win $104 worth of 6/49 lotto tickets and a Blue Jays bag and golf shirt for my Happy Dance, which was displayed prominently on the Jumbotron. 20,000 fans chose ME!!
And then there were a few more courses for the old Masters. One is done, with a pretty good grade, and the other is half over and will be completed in Edmonton for the Spring Institute (starting May 4th). I've settled on my research project which you can read all about at my research project blog, A Big Sensation.
And then there's Vegas. Six of us are heading down in about 5 hours, staying at the MGM Grand. My brother and some friends will be down as well, staying across the street at Excalibur. So we have plans to gamble and party, watch hockey and sit by the pool, and really take in the whole Las Vegas experience. It'll be a first for most of us. Needless to say, we're excited.
