Okay, here are the highlights...
Not a bad night, but it could have gone better, IMHO.
To top it off... my knee was bothering me last night, had a permanent tickle in the back of my throat that's now progressed into something that hurts a bit... kept overcompensating when correcting bad rolls... and decided to start learning how to make the ball curve... it ain't like Ten Pin, folks... candlepin's got a higher degree of difficulty to begin with...
Ah well... practice session Friday night, perhaps...
- Had a horrible start to the second string... first box was a naught. I haven't done that in like... ever. However, I did get a strike-6 in that string, and managed to come up with a 70...
- Colleen got a strike in the third string, and we managed to pull that game out.
- We lost the first two games, took the third, and managed to have the most pins fall.
- Our opposing team was at half strength, so the two that were out had their averages minus five put in for what they bowled. We should have won at least another game, but their averages were rather good to start off with.
- The guy on the other team that did show up kept drinking beer after beer after beer... he was tolerable at the start, but became the World's Biggest Asshole at the end.
