To League or Not to League - Game Two

Well, it's been a week since I started this. I must say it isn't as easy as I thought it would be. The lanes are different and people are different too. Well maybe not different, it's just strange that as soon as I joined the league I automatically got tons of friends.

The same people who barely spoke to me before are now my best friends. I'm serious, it's like someone flipped a switch. I don't get it. I'm the same person I was before I joined league. Now poof I'm every body's friend. Hopefully I will be able figure this out too.

The second team we face are a lot younger than our last opponenst. Thank goodness! I do believe my wholesome heart prevented me from beating that old woman. This team will not be so lucky. The person I will be bowling against is the man of the group. He is a little shorter than I but a lot stockier. The other two are women, one is very tall and the other is my height. Wait, I almost forgot they have a baby with them. It is 18 months old and she is cute as can be. They take turns holding the baby as they bowl. I must say it is unusual to watch but at least they are together.

Oh I hope they don't forget they are holding a baby and not a ball this could get interesting. League bowlers, it turns out will congratulate anyone who makes a good shot. Even if the person is on the other team. How strange is that? I'm all for sportsmanship but this is war and I'm in it to win.

Now about the game. We lost the first game over all. My game did improve a little I'm glad to say. My ball still is not working like I want it to. I tried changing where I stand and it seemed to help. I'm thinking about buying a new ball if things don't improve.

The second game went a little better we almost won. Unfortunately we still suck! The third game went the same as the first two. We lost again. Why is that some people give up and others fight to the end? I am not one to give up. My team will win if it kills me. For all of you wondering, the baby survived.

Till next time Happy Bowling!
