Vacation was great, took Mark's advice and pretty much disconnected (truth be told, it was due a lot to not having ready internet access :) ). Pretty much only looked through blog posts from my phone, and did a little bit of cleanup from raw notes I've taken. Only bad part is that I got seriously sick for a couple days. Somehow, I stay in pretty good health for someone who gets too little sleep, too much food, and has a couple kids in the petri dishes otherwise known as elementary school. It's been a few years since I had anything stronger than a mild fever, cold, or sore throat. But something sure knocked me out last week for a couple days -- I'll spare you the details, suffice to say they are not pretty. No fever and pretty much ate the same stuff as everyone else at the in-laws' house. Best guess everyone had is that I got very dehydrated. Anyway, it's over and done with, and I feel fine now.
I did play a short session on the weekend when we got back. I was worried about not being sharp after a week with no play and little/no study, but it went well. I played OK and ran well, and only played 2-4 tables at a time. I also started reviewing a review of my play from before I left, which I'll finish up in the next day or two, then hopefully be back in full swing. I do have to get unburied at work, plus it's my son's birthday this week, which we have some stuff lined up for. So, in reality, it may be next week before I hit the ground running for real.
I see that while I was gone, the latest What Would Joe Tall Do video came up, and Jared was the guest coach. I don't know exactly what my score was, but I know I missed some, based on the answer key Joe posted. That's kind of discouraging...I've been taking lessons with Jared long enough that I should have aced his episode :(.
