Qualifying. UGH ! And I mean UGH double UGH. The most tiring part of following this W.P.B.A. dream of mine is the Qualifying system. I've eluded to the "system" a few times in my past blogs and I've keep telling you guys that I would "explain" later so for you to understand the UGH part of this blog i guess it's "later". Here goes........................I just can't, it's all toooo complicated and I'm not that great of a typer. I'll make you a deal if you really care and want to know, just ask me the next time you see me at an event and I promise I'll take the time to explain it. For now all you really need to know is that I'm r-e-a-l close to earning my pro status which will mean that I will have an automatic invite to all the W.P.B.A. events except the one in Las Vegas, which is the one that goes on at the same time as the B.C.A. event, and is the reason for this blog. I sooo want to go to the Vegas tournament. It's my fav. There are 9000 amateur players there at the same time and the energy is fan-tastic. I've gotten to do a play the pro segment the last two years to help raise charity monies and I'm really looking forward to doing it again this year. That is IF I can win a qualified spot. So far in the last 6 weeks I've traveled to Maryland, Washington State, New England and here in Florida to attempt to win the spot. I've been 1 spot short 2 of the times and pretty close the other two but no cigar. It took me 3 days to get over the jet lag after Washington State. Luckily for me perseverance is one of my long suites. That coupled with the grace of having the financial freedom to afford all this travel and a loving and supportive mate to encourage me along the way has made it possible for me to have one more shot. This weekend in the beautiful state of New Jersey, by the way... why do they call it the "garden" state? I haven't seen may flowers there. If you know the answer tell me the next event you see me at. Until then send me all the good vibes you can, this is my last chance to get to Vegas.
Thanks for your help,
