I'm surprised my right arm isn't completely useless.
Because we went bowling yesterday. 10-pin bowling. Not that I needed to specify that. But most of the bowling alleys in Winnipeg are 5-pin, so that's what I'm used to. I've only been 10-pin bowling once before.
It was tons of fun. Guys against girls. And I don't know that I could say who won, because the teams were uneven. There were 4 guys and three girls. BUT. I got 90 the first game (which means I beat the girls, and most, if not all, of the guys.) I don't normally do that. I've never claimed to be a good bowler. Which I proved in the second game with a nice low score of 57.
But the last game? Mari and I tied for second with 100. I can't remember the last time I got 100. I even beat ART. I'm quite proud of myself.
We came back to our place so I could serve Joe his birthday brownie (he turned 20 on Monday). Yes, I made brownies. Cheesecake brownies. Impressed yet? Don't be. It came from a box. All I had to do was add a little oil, water, and eggs. But it was very yummy.
My fingers definitely hurt from clinging to that 9 lb ball. I'm sure there were lighter ones, but the place was crowded, and most of the people were drinking beer, and I'm a little hesitant in those situations, so I didn't have the guts to venture out and find an 8.
It was a pretty good evening. Very fun. We all agreed that it's something we should do more often. Maybe we'll even make t-shirts!

Sounds like a fun evening. And congrats on "making the brownie cheesecake!" Maybe we can talk on the phone tomorrow.
I remember the first time I went 10-pin bowling. It was at PLBC! :) I was also used to the 5-pin kind where I grew up. Small towns rule, who needs to lift 10 lbs of anything, really?
I hate 10-pin bowling. Those balls are way too heavy for me!
