Kristi and I went to run our errand, then went to have dinner at PF Changs last night, but first we had a nice drink at my apartment. I ordered my usual, which I haven’t ordered in a while, chicken fried rice without vegetables. Usually I can only eat half of it, then I save the other half for later. Nope, not this time.
I noticed early on that I was finishing more than usual. I thought that maybe I should stop and just save the rest, but no. It was so good and I was enjoying it more than usual. I decided to keep eating. Soon I was realizing that I might actually not have anything left to save. Then soon it became a challenge. I challenged myself to eat it all, and that I did. There was not one kernel of rice left on my plate.
I was sick. I had overeaten. I was thankful that I had worn a baggy shirt and loose jeans. I was nauseated. That was a challenge I should not have taken. Oh, but don’t think I didn’t manage to squeeze in the fortune cookie too.
We stopped at a gas station on the way to get some candy. Yeah, you’d think that I would have had enough to eat, but that was not the case. I was cracking up when we left the gas station (which Kristi refers to as a service station) because the attendant must have thought we were stoned. We just ran in, grabbed a bunch of snacks and left. We were giggling, dropping things all over the place, and just overall being stupid in the store.
I avoided sitting at the table again this week, and apparently my behavior has been noticed (not that I’m trying to be unnoticeable). Chad told Kristi that Rupert thinks I’m mad at him. He said that he’s noticed that I don’t cheer for them anymore, or high-five them, or congratulate them. He’s right. I don’t.
Chad wanted to know if I was mad at Rupert. Kristi told him that I don’t like Rupert and that I’ve never liked Rupert from day one. Then Chad wanted to know how I felt about him as well, but Kristi couldn’t bring herself to tell him that I don’t like him either. She just told him that she didn’t think I had a problem with him.
Whatever. I don’t like either of them. I tried being nice to Chad, and civil to Rupert, in the beginning. I tried to invite Chad out with me and be his friend, but he chose to align himself with Rupert instead.
He chose to align himself with someone that consistently lied to him about everything, and was sucessful in turning him against Kristi and I. Where did that leave him? Hmm? How about jobless, and moving all by himself? Did Rupert go over to help him? Nope.
Kristi and I were actually sitting up on my balcony drinking and watching him move by himself… no Rupert in sight. Had he been a better friend to us, we would have been there helping him.
Anyways… We played some good games. The first game was lost by only one point, which was overly frustrating. I bowled a damn good game. I was surprising myself. The second game we actually won. I don’t remember by how much, but I know it was a lot more than one point. The third game was lost again, by one point.
I think I actually bowled probably my best overall game ever. I didn’t get close to my high score, but I bowled a good consistent game. I know that the last game I got a 126, one game I got like a 153, and then one was somewhere around 137? I think in one game there were only maybe two frames that I didn’t get a strike or a spare.
I think I bowled so well because I’ve let go of all of the animosity between the bitches and I. I just ignored them and tried to have fun. I spent a lot of time chatting with our opponents (Y B Sober), and honestly… I think I cheered more for them and congratulated them more. I had a blast joking around with Charlotte.
I had wanted to bowl one turn just like Charlotte. I wanted to imitate her form. I was practicing by the table and she was practically pissing herself laughing. She has such a graceful ballet looking form when she bowls. It’s awesome. But then, after I mocked her, she couldn’t bowl good for the next few turns.
She kept trying to tone down her form and it was messing her up. I had made her too self-conscious. We were all laughing so hard at her trying not to bowl like herself. Poor girl! I did make a joke that maybe I should have mocked her earlier and we could have won one of the other games. I never got to do my imitation of her because the game was too close and I didn’t want to waste a turn.
Next Tuesday is Rupert’s birthday. Chad wants to do something special for him. I want to avoid it all. I don’t understand why Kristi is still trying to be nice with them. I can’t do it. She wants me to go to dinner with all of them, and just be civil so that the team won’t suffer and we can win more money, but I think it’s more because she can’t not be nice to them.
I’m at the point that I could just quit the team, rather than have to play nice with those boys. I can avoid and be civil, but I can’t have dinner with them and be civil. I need to have a talk with her and remind her of all the evil things they have done to her, and said about her. Not too mention that she needs to be more insulted that Chad is planning something big for Rupert’s birthday and really did nothing for her. He didn’t even bring her a cake to bowling. I wanted to do it, but Kristi and I actually were super busy before bowling that Tuesday.
I think I may also have to ask some friends to come support me in the playoffs next week so that I can better avoid the Rupert birthday extravaganza.
Well, I guess that’s it. Oh! I saw Sammy’s friend, Scott, at bowling last night. My phone was also ringing like crazy. Leander even called to wish me luck and to see how I was doing. He rarely ever calls me. How sweet is that?
OH OH OH! Kristi got three awards last night at bowling. She got voted “Most Unique bowling form”, “most feminine bowler”, and “most likely to do better at croquet”. She was the only person to get three awards, and there were only 10 total.
