I left work on time yesterday, thanks to the second interviewee being a half hour early. That interview went ok, but there was something about the guy I didn’t like, so we’re pushing to hire Maria. Hopefully she will accept the position this morning.
Went to dinner at Firebowl with my sister and Ryan before bowling. I usually order the Teriyaki Chicken or Sesame Chicken and I usually end up disappointed in it. Last night I got my sister’s usual, General Tso’s Chicken and I liked it a lot. Yay! I have a new usual.
Bowling was fun last night. We played James and Scott, who we knew from the other league. James was having an off night and was being all dramatic. He got mad at his bowling ball and threw it from the lane over to the tables in the dinning area. Then later picked it up to put it in his bag and literally threw it in to his bag. I have to admit it was a little hilarious to see someone take out their frustration on a bowling ball.
I thought for sure we’d lose all of our games because James and Scott bowl really well and they’ve been bowling for like 10 years. Well….We ended up winning the first game by 92 points, and I bowled a 167. I had the highest score out of all four of us. The second game was not as nice to me. I only bowled a 113 and we lost the game by 39 points. The third game was AMAZING. I bowled a strike my first frame, then the second, the third, the fourth, and the fifth frame! FIVE strikes in a row. I was seriously freaking out. I’ve never bowled more than two in a row. So yeah, I kicked butt in the last game and bowled a 197! That beats my previous high of 182! We won that game by 24 points, so that meant we won the match by a total of 77 points!
That has to be my best game ever. My average for the night is 159, which is 25 points higher than my normal average. Yay! I hope I can keep bowling this well. I think I figured out what it takes for me to bowl better, and that’s stopping and concentrating more before taking my approach.
Anyways… after bowling I went home and had to fix my wireless connection. I was messing with the router yesterday and “fixed” it to not wok anymore. It took me a while to get it going again, then I got the bright idea to take my old computer back out of the closet and use it for a music server. Once I got started on that, I couldn’t stop and ended up staying up until 1am. Dumb.
So today I’m sleepy and this is probably going to be a long horrible day, but at least I can be happy all day knowing I bowled a 197 last night. It’s funny because early last night I was telling Scott that I didn’t think I would ever bowl a 200 game, then I came within 3 points of accomplishing that goal.
Five strikes in a row! Wow!
