I'm a bowler now, or at least in a bowing league. Bowling requires accessories, and generally I'm down with that. But I can't seem to get it together. You can rent the shoes and borrow a ball at the bowling alley, but you have to bring your own socks.
I even managed to find two white socks that matched this morning and left them on my coffee table. Next to the cat. And an empty popcorn bowl. I can either blog or keep the house picked up, okay people? Since this is my second round of bowling I've learned some tricks. Like you can buy socks at the drug store.
This evening I was clever enough to buy a six pack. I left the other five pairs in the truck. That will hold me 'til Halloween at least. Not that I needed one more thing to add to my busy schedule, but bowling has been good for me. I've met a whole new group of people and gotten to know others better. It keeps me from working too late, at least on Mondays.
I thought I'd just be a sub this round, but two really fun people I met this summer asked me to join their team. Julie is in an MFA program for writing, which I think is the coolest thing ever. Kathleen and I bonded over the fact that we're both single and have to share a room with our parents on vacation. She is a career coach and has given me great advice on some workplace issues.
Now I just need to improve my bowling game -- there is no where to go but up, my average is 95.
And yes, I'm usually (okay, always) wearing a dress.

I think it rocks that you are bowling and when the weather gets colder; you will wear socks more often. So that pack might hold you a little longer!!
Char and I took up bowling recently. It is a lot fun.
Okay if you are counting votes I say blog. You can clean the house later.
