First off I know you are just sitting on the edge of your seat waiting and hoping and praying for a photo of me in my shaved head, brown/black hair gloriness (is that even a word?) but you’ll just have to wait a little longer. I found the PERFECT photo last night that highlights all this hairy goodness but until I can figure out how to scan it without my scanner changing it to black and white, you’ll have to wait just a little while longer. It loses some of if its majesticness in black and white. (I am TOTALLY making up words today and I don’t care, and I didn't realize until I was looking for my pictures that Rihanna and Willow Smith have totally jacked my high school look. I was saving my head way before they made it cool!)
In other news I’m super irritated but trying to keep positive. Bowling season starts again on the 26th. I started bowling last year as a way to keep touch with M during the winter months. He bowls on two teams as well as plays poker nearly every weekend so joining one of his bowling teams is a way to do something WITH him once a week as opposed to sitting home by myself two of the three nights a week. Last year our team consisted of Craig, Beth, Paul, M and me. This year Paul and his wife Nicole decided to switch spots – Paul would stay home with the kids and Nicole would get a night out. She’s a stay at home Mom so I get the need to be kid free for a couple hours once a week. I found out that Craig’s two neighbors want to bowl as does Justin (from Justin and Melissa of a couple posts ago) and Beth’s brother, Jim.
Suddenly I’m hearing that Craig is splitting up our bowling team into two teams to accommodate these newcomers. I would be cool with Craig helping them to start a new team but instead I’ve heard that he’s splitting up our current team. I’m not down with this. I’m keeping my cool until I talk to Craig myself, because I’ve heard two separate team lineups so I’m not sure if either are correct. The first one had Craig, Beth, M, Nicole and Justin on a team with me on the other new team. The second I heard is M, Beth, Nicole, Jim and Artie (One of Craig’s neighbors) on a team leaving Me, Craig, Justin, Arti’s wife (I can’t remember her name) and a random person as yet to be named on the second team. Then last night I heard that Craig never told Nicole that Justin is bowling so she’s pissed and isn’t bowling now. (She and Justin dated YEARS ago and she can’t stand him.)
I heard that Craig and Beth want to bring home as much money at the end of the season as they can which explains the reasoning for them splitting up onto two separate teams, but that’s just stupid. Even if your team places first in the league you don’t bring home enough to cover what you spent all season. These separate stories are a big reason why I’m not flying off the handle but I maintain that if I’m not bowling on the same team as M there’s no point in my bowling because my whole purpose in bowling to begin with is gone then.
P.S. Re-reading this post makes me realize how completely stupid and childish my friends and I must seem. But I don’t care.
