My ears hurt and my left teeth hurt.
Last night Kathy and I, Ted and Nancy, and Bennett and Alice went bowling. Ted has his own ball and his own shoes. The rest of us rented and agreed that we would like to own a pair of bowling shoes just to wear.
My first warm up was a strike. That was the end of my accurate bowling. Each couple bought one round.
Ted won with 123 and Alice just behind with 122. It pays to have your own ball and shoes. Alice was tickled because she had never done better than 100. Bennett followed with a 110 and Nancy with 88. Kathy and I both scored 52. Isn’t that cute. Oh well…
The bad company of six all climbed into the Butker’s Suburu Party Wagon and went to Taco Mac. We had a good time laughing and trying to out shout one another. At one point, Alice, Nancy, and Kathy all climbed head first into the basketball machine to steal balls for us to shoot with. My one shot landed on top of the net-covered machine. We had to move the machine to climb up and get the ball down. I’m sure our waitress, Carla, was delighted with our behavior. (“What a nutty crowd. They each order only one beer and go nuts!”)
I carved Kathy and my initials in the top of the table (where many others words had been carved.) Somewhere in the middle of the exchange, the phrase “casual breast” came up. Kathy thought that was particularly funny. Rules are rules.
Now let’s see… how much of Nicole and Danny’s college fund did we use up?
Shoes: 1.50 x 2 = 3.00 Lane: 2.50 x 2 = 5.00 Pitcher: 5.75 Taco Mac: 32.15 Cash from group: -13.00* Summer: 10.00 ------ Total 42.90
*(Yes, I should have collected more.)
Seems like there are cheaper ways to make your ears and left teeth hurt.
