Bowlin' in the Wind
I went bowling yesterday for the first time in probably a year. Back in my heyday, when I bowled twice a year, I considered breaking 100 to be awesome. Once, by some divine twist, I scored a 175, and thought I had really made it in the world. Last night I started out strong, with a 144 (not bad, after a year with no practice). The second game, I scored a disappointing 102. Not to outdo myself, the third game I scored a whopping 68 points. That's less than my previous lowest score ever even if you reverse the numbers. Usually I suck my first game and get increasingly better. Last night, I think my arm muscles burnt out early in the game.

Arm muscles should be building there strength with all the kickboxing. Just keep hoping for the best.
Oh, it's a special day. What is it?

My best bowling moment ever has to have been the day I managed a gutterball while using the bumpers. now that takes some skill right there :)

Don't ever bowl at the GWU lanes. They are built crooked, on purpose I think, just so everyone does badly. I mean, come on...I usually bowl in the high 200's and I got a 13 there. Some crazy stuff is going on, obviously.

The high 200s? Either you are lying, or you had nothing else to do during those crazy Michigan summers.

You know, back home I never took the time to truly appreciate bowling. I liked it, but I never thought "I should savor every moment, for someday it will be gone," like youth, or bourbon, or a big sandwich. Now I see the error of my ways. You cannot find good old American bowling in Boston. You know what they have? Fucking CANDLEPIN bowling. Like, with the little bocci ball and a bunch of stupid relay race-type sticks. I've been on this earth for twenty-two years, and never once have I felt gayer.
