I suck
And not in the "good way" either. I didn't get drunk last night, I'm not hung over this morning, and I suck at bowling.
It started out pretty good. I'd only subbed one other time for this league, and my average from that night was a 154. Pretty good for a chick, huh? Last night started out good. First game was a 163 and we beat the other team by 10 pins, even though one of the other guys had 6 strikes in a row and bowled 100 pins over his average. Second game wasn't so good - 129. Everyone has a bad game, and usually it's the middle one for me. Third game, I'm lucky I could find the lane, much less the pins! I swear, they kept jumping out of the way whenever I tried to hit them. I'm ashamed to admit, I didn't even break 100. Heck, I didn't break 90. My lowly 88 was the reason we lost the third game and total pins. So it was declared that I suck, and not in the good way.
I did drink, but I was oncall for work and had to be prepared in case I got called. Now that I no longer have any backup, I actually have to start staying sober for work. Dammit! At least it's Friday. I'll be oncall until Monday, so I'm prepared for a very rainy and very sober weekend in the house.
I guess I should start packing anyways. We finally have a settlement date for the townhouse we signed for in April of 2004. The basement will become the party room, complete with poker tables! That will be fun to set up...
Just 3 more weeks to settlement. Then I'm going to have to start making money at poker to pay for my drinking habits. I need a crash course! :-)

Bowling. Vegas. December. Bring it.
Fair warning though... my average goes from 173 sober to 200+ with 4 or more drinks in me ;)
Ok... now where are we going to find a bowling alley in a casino, and will they allow us to take bets on how many pins we're going to knock down? :-)
