With the typical extended weekend of NCAA Tournament debauchery over as of Sunday morning, I noticed that it is 40 days until the Wachovia nee Quail Hollow Championship begins here in Charlotte. Since that’s a nice round number with a significance of biblical proportions, I dedided to go on a 40-days-and-40-nights prohibition from the sauce. So until Friday, May 1, I’m going dry! I already had to cut down drastically on intake at bars due to the financial situation, but now I’m just cutting it all out. The weather’s getting nicer, and there’s really nothing between now and then worth drinking to. Wish me luck…I’ve done these kinds of things before, sometimes to easy success and sometimes not.
In other news, I finally have some relief on my own personal mortgage crisis! The realtor I’d been using to try to sell my place in Blacksburg got a signed lease by 2 VT students which begins on June 1. So that’s a huge financial burden lifted! Hooray!
I’m in 2nd place in my NCAA pool thus far. Pretty happy with that. We’ll see what happens…
