Strike!  
I bowled a strike, left-handed.

Yesterday morning, for the first time in months, I went bowling with Jenny and played two games. I got a 59 and then an 88. Jenny's first game was a 90.

Last night, my right thumb was sore, and I went bowling with Debbie. After one game, it was much worse. For most of the next two games, I bowled left-handed. I even got a strike, a spare, and several nines. I also got several gutter balls. *shrug* It helps to try aiming for different markers. I think my first game was an 80. I know the last one was a 44. Debbie won.

Next time I haven't gone bowling in a while, I'll try to ease into it.

Whoa, that's an awesome game.

I always feel lucky if I bowl anything over 40 or 50.

It's very sporadic, but I've gone to Oakridge Lanes and San Jose State... the last place I went to before Friday was in Hayward and has been closed for months. When is good for you?

Tuesday nights are generally my best social nights. There's one at Camden and Union, though I've never been in there.

Every other Tuesday night works for me, the ones when I don't work the next day. :)

Tuesday Feb 21 would work.

Oakridge is all remodeled now and ... upscale. Kinda weird.

hahaha you play as well as I do! ..to this day I question if it's a matter of never finding a ball that fits my size fingers and span, or if I just suck.

oddly though.. the few times I played as a small child.. my scores were in the mid 100's, still sucky, but not nearly so as last time I went and had agonizing fun.

I used to have that trouble finding the right ball. Now I use my own. :)
Having my own shoes helps with the prices too.
