Oh Well

After the previously blogged about spectacular week, things came to a screeching halt at the National Open Pairs qualification round last Sat.  After a dismal 38 percent game in the morning with husband/partner, qualifying was but a distant dream.  I had a bad week last week with all partners and felt the cross hairs of the bridge goddess's wrath aimed squarely at my back as the obvious problem.   Not enough incense AND the hummers have migrated on.  I need a new omen.

The good news is partner/husband and I have passed the 280 mark.  Better news is that friends Jay and Paula agreed to go to Reno over Christmas week.  On Christmas day, instead of opening presents and eating roast beef like normal Americans, all four of us will board a SW airlines plane and have peanuts for Christmas dinner.  We will attempt to get our last 5 gold points in the KOs that week and, whether we do or not, we will reboard the same SW airlines jet on New Year's Eve to come home.  I think I can scrape up a bottle of champagne when we get home to share with Jay and Paula - win or lose!

Onward.
