Like I said, we do have fun but I am a competitor and I don't like performing so poorly. I'll get'em next week. Unfortunately, I work with a couple of bowlers on the other team so I won't hear the end of it. Of course I just tell them that I bowl to the competition, and this weeks level of competition was, well, lower than my teams.

The Good, The Bad and the OMG
Well another league night has come and gone. With the averages our team has set, we were giving 125 pins a game. That's a lot to make up for mediocre bowlers. Needless to say we lost 3 of 4. I didn't help our case at all. Threw a fantabulous 113 ( on a 182 average). I did manage to close out the night with a team high 231 to win the third game. We are a great group of misfits that just have a great time regardless of how good or bad we are doing. Team scores are here.

Rambling For Today
After a decent outing with last nights league bowling, I had to be at the office at the crack of dawn to restart our file servers. Needless to say, I have one that has issues. Was it the Microsoft Security Patches? Most likely. Now I can't even uninstall them. So, I'll just have to download them and reinstall them. Oh what fun for running on 5 hours of sleep two nights in a row. I'm too old for this crap. I need my 8 hours of beauty sleep.
As for the bowling, I bowl in a "church" league, one that I do not attend. A couple of friends are members so they asked me to join the league. I have a coworker that's on my team and another coworker (the member) that is on another team who talks a lot of garbage. Back story: After not having bowled in 10 years, he challenged me ( after he's league bowled for 3 years now ). Needless to say the first outing May, he did beat me. Only buy a few pins but he did win. He hasn't beaten me since so I can't figure out why he talks so much trash. Anyway, I started off September 15 with a 175, 206 & 185. This week I started off poorly but finished strong with a 152, 150, 224. I do enjoy bowling in a league since I relish the competition, not only with the other teams but with myself. I know what I am capable of and I really strive to better my average with every ball searching for that elusive 300. Maybe one day.
