me and marge simpson

i like myself, my talents and hobbies. i can do certain sports, music, crafty stuff, etc. etc.  what i can't do: bowl. bowling is seriously beyond my physical prowess. it's art and wonder have eluded me for over two decades now ...

but i always forget this little fact. i forget that i am absolutely pathetic on the lanes. i don't know how i forget, but i do. 

so i went. with friends. in public. and bowled.

and i lost. 
bad.

i changed the rules of the game in the 8th frame and said the woman whose score was closest to her age wins. from then on i rocked it.



it was a hau'ula 1st ward "young mommas" night, minus all the womens who have the flu, which were quite a few. 

and matti shook her thang on DDR afterwards, of course. she's the next best thing since shane boyd!
thanks ladies! next time lets do tennis or something ... deal?

it appears to me that everyone else had a hard time getting to even break 50, so i think you're in good shape! loved reading the post, though-- you are too funny!

Hey, way to give it a go. I've got about the same amount of skill when it comes to bowling. Now I just bowl on the Wii and save myself some humiliation. But I <3 DDR!

Matti said...

Hahaha! So looks like you got plenty of photos of me after-all. Good thing I changed my outfit twice, and put on mascara! ;-) That was fun. You guys were so sweet to let the pregnant lady win...and wait the extra 10 min. so I could get my exercize in at the end of the night. ;-)

They are both healthy happy little girls. The other crazy thing was I had them at 35 weeks but was measuring 47 weeks so i was a huge mama jama plus i swear i retained about 20 plus pounds of water during the last 2 to 3 months and it went everywhere i was like the michalin (however that is spelled) tire man!!!
