The weather's been too cool to want to go to the park to hit a tennis ball back and forth, so we decided to head to the local lanes for a different brand of exercise. We have a tradition of posting pseudonyms when we bowl. One friend is often 'Dr. Doom'. Names from TV shows often come into play, especially 'Lucy' and 'Ethel'. But last night's cooler weather must have made us more original. Instead of our stand-by names, one of us took the generic 'Bowler' as a name. Another took 'Footloose' and silly me, I tempted fate by taking the presumptuous, 'Pinstrike'. Wouldn't you know, nary a strike all night.
I probably threw the worst score of my life, but still, it was plenty of fun.
And just to note, even though my feet are bigger than most, they're not as gigantic as they might seem compared to
those balls in the photo at the top. After all, we were playing the usually quite forgiving five-pin.
