"With all my might I scored a strike my friend you wouldn't believe..."


I went bowling tonight at the Miracle Bowl. It might've been a miracle...the last time I went bowling was in 2006. (I went to Fat Cats with Robyn, who always seems to be going bowling.) I'll tell you what wasn't a miracle though...I'm pretty sure my score was about the same as the little kid's in the next lane over. I kept wanting to use the bumpers and that cool contraption you roll your ball down, but they weren't taking me seriously. Oh, but look at my stylish bowling shoes. I got my own on a bet a few years ago, but I've only bowled and gotten to wear them a few times. I wanted cool ones that actually look like vintage bowling shoes, but I guess you can't just buy those at the alley. Rude. 

I don't remember ever going bowling before I moved to Utah. Maybe once. As soon as I got here it was suddenly the thing to do. I don't know why that is...maybe because there isn't much else around this town.
I'm definitely a better Wii bowler, is all I have to say. I'm bowling straight strikes on the Wii, and straight up gutter balls in the alley. It also depends on the music, though...I always bowl better when better music is on. I kept stalling during the commercials and the dumb songs. Actually, one of my only, say, 2 strikes was during "Welcome To The Jungle." Unfortunately, it was during Robyn's turn. That would happen. Also, on a side note: my favorite part about bowling is that when you're holding the ball your hand makes the "rock on" gesture. Heh heh...

"wonder if I will completely freeze out here..."

It's snowing. Again.
I just went to start my day off right (yes, I said start. The fact that it is 2pm is irrelevant) with a delicious Viva La French Toast Combo from IHOP. I sat down, enjoyed my meal, and as I walked to the front door I realized it is snowing again. In that moment, any satisfaction and contentedness I felt from my meal vanished. It's time to move again. I can't handle this cold anymore...I'm turning into a bitter old lady. Who is freezing.
Also, after a week on the phone with Apple icare and ATT tech support and a new sim card, my phone still picks and chooses which texts it wants to receive. Which is usually not many. So, sorry if I don't respond-my phone probably rejected your text. Shoddy apple product...if I didn't love my phone so much...

"I'll take you to the candy shop..."

Ok, I really don't like Holidays...but I love seasonal candy. I just can't get enough, it's always my favorite. Candy Corn for Halloween...Peeps for Easter...I just polished off my third Family-size bag of conversation hearts. MMmm...I need to go to the store for replenishment. I just don't understand how these things aren't delicious to everyone. It's a mystery. When you're going for the hearts, only get Brachs, though. Over the years I've discovered the large hearts are better than the small ones, too. Now that I've probably grossed out almost everyone with my amazing taste in seasonal candy, I'm off to get more. I can't wait til Peep season :)
