bowling for a birthday


oh dear, this isn't very ladylike.
tonight i went bowling. it was c's birthday (4th from the left), and she chose the activity.
i'm the BOWLER FROM HELL.
really.
i totally suck at bowling.
in fact, i suck at pretty much all sports. bowling, curling, golfing, volleyball... really really bad. i'm trying to learn to bask in the glory of my suck-y-ness, as i get older.
it astounds me, however, that i can be SO bad, yet manage to make a living out of playing the violin - something that uses fine motor skills & the coordination of hands & fingers & arms. makes absolutely no sense to me. totally sucky.

being bad at bowling is WAY more fun than being good (as in karaoke)! and look at how great the pic turned out!

Look around next time you're at the bowling alley. Do you want to be that laughing person taking a swig of beer and bowling granny-style with pinache? Or do you want to be that weird guy in the end lane who polishes the bowling ball before ever toss and wears a league shirt to work? I <3 bowling badly.
