Big Balls, Heavy Balls & inebriated bowling..

Well it's been go, go, go around my place this past week. I've walked about 19 miles so far already, and was geared to go again today to Roosevelt Island, but it's YUCKY out yet again! I'm so sick of bad, crappy weather. I just want it to be bright, dry, and at least 60 degrees.. is that too much to ask??

Last night I went for a moms night out bowling. I had a really good time. Especially since the rules were:

Besides the fact we like to bowl, we kind of suck at it and don't care. We are girls who just wanna have some fun! That's right, you read that correctly. We just wanna go and bowl for the sheer fun of it and be more interested in our last order of chicken fingers & pitcher of beer than what the score might be, and when we say keep score, we mean that loosely, and only in the sense that we want to get our lies straight.

For example, "Wow. I bowled a 17." Proper response from inebriated mommy member, "No, no. You're drunk and really wrong. That's a 117. Pay attention...and pass me the curly fries."

Also, NO competitive bowling for us. Or else this might happen to you.

If you like to bowl (or think you might), and your good-for-nothing friends won't come out bowling then we are the group for you.

If you like meeting new friends, and socializing with interesting and fun people, stop reading and sign up for this event now. We will get along famously, and we are the group for you!

If you can bowl while drinking from a martini glass, and not choke on the olive, you totally rock and should RSVP to this event now. We are the group for you.

So of course I HAD to go. I even had a smashing headache all afternoon/evening, and after about 6 aleve, and laying in a dark room almost close to tears, and totally miserable, I found this stuff from Origins that I'd stuffed in a drawer. I put it on after a quick shower, and I swear to God, I could feel that stuff working. I put it on my temples, behind my ears, and on my neck.. it was amazing. I think mine is only a sample size, so I'm totally buying more of it.

I was actually "comparatively" good, and totally surprised myself when I actually knocked all the pins over a few times. I hadn't bowled in years - like maybe 10 years, and I remember sucking so bad, that my husband had them put up the guard rails, because I was soooo not having any luck otherwise.

Half a pitcher of yuengling later, my headache was well and truly toast! I was either really hungry, or their fries were really good! Unfortunately, the only thing that didn't happen, was the cosmic light show, and glow in the dark balls.. that's only now on a Saturday night.. oh well, it was still fun, and the other moms were really nice!
