  • Summer League: May 21 2009

    This week was about the same as the three that came before it for me. I am still yet to break the 600 barrier, which is REALLY frustrating, because I’m not far off of it.  In fact it’s been a matter of just a single missed spare in one or two games.  This week it…

  • The mechanics of a good arm swing

    A few weeks ago, Jennifer started giving me grief about my arm swing, because at the top of the swing my hand turns completely out, meaning my palm is perpendicular to the floor.  Now, I don’t know when this started, but I know it’s a result my trying to learn the more dynamic release that…

  • Summer League: May 14th 2009

    Week three of the Summer League ’09 at Fugate’s Bowl-a-rama in Hazard, KY was a good one, if I do say so myself. My team is by far and away the best team in the league.  We currently hold three of the top four averages (yes, I’m the fourth highest average), which doesn’t mean a…

  • Bring on Summer League

They both averaged over 200…

  • New work possibilities

    Well, in the last week things have changed a little as far as work prospects go. Last Sunday, I went bowling and for the first time in a long time, the owner, Fred, was working the counter.  What’s more, Jennifer had dropped me off to go and get in the tanning bed for a little…

  • Recent developments

    Recently Jennifer and I have been really trying to step out and find a place of our own.  This is a little nerve racking because we barely make enough money to cover what little financial responsibilities we have.  The thought of adding another $350 a month (minimum) is a little intimidating.  Having said that, we…

  • Ah f**k it! Let’s go bowling.

    Well, if you’ve seen The Big Lebowski, the title of this blog may bring a smile to your face.  If you haven’t seen the aforementioned movie, you are likely wondering what the hell is up with the title. Long story, short: I’ve taken up Ten pin bowling as my primary sport since moving to the…

  • I’m ba-ack

    Well, after a few months of being down in the duldrums that is expired domains, I’ve finally got my ass into gear and brought my domain back to life.  It’s funny, after months of neglect and inattention, my domain goes in to redemption and suddenly I give a shit.  Weird huh?
