Typewriter vs Freestyle
February 23rd, 2010
We went to Grand Rapids on Saturday night to celebrate Rick’s birthday. It was a bowling party, so I had to dust off my hot pink ball. It was so great to see everyone! We bowled at Wenger’s, which is a really cool retro bowling alley. I was super excited because you can actually watch your ball come all the way back up the lane in the ball return. Sweet! Anyway, we had a blast eating pizza and bowling with a bunch of friends. Here’s the pics:
I also managed to bowl decently (for me), considering that I hadn’t bowled at all since August. I scored 134, 123, and 106. I also tried a couple of new beers at the alley – Founders IPA and Founders Pale Ale. Both were really good, but the IPA was a little more bitter, and I enjoyed the pale ale a wee bit more. Woot!
Yesterday, I shovelled. It was kind of fun except that George is sort of like the Hitler of shovelling, and likes things done in a very precise and orderly way – “typewriter style” is what he called it. Well I am more of a Trishtastic Freestyle kind of shoveller, so I felt restricted and bored by the precisionality of the “typewriter”. I am an outside the box kind of gal. Anyway, I have tried to shovel lots of times this winter and usually Mike won’t let me help. But I showed him! I shovelled while he was at work so he couldn’t stop me. I am so BA. Behold, the Shovel Queen:
