That’s a Wrap
And just like that, league season is done. I finished up my second, spring league on Monday and now I have nothing but warm days and happiness ahead of me. Wasn’t exactly a happy matter the last few weeks of bowling. Though, it was a phenomenal learning experience and capped off a great experience over ...
The Thick and Thin
When it rains, it pours. At least, that’s what it seemed like when it came to the lane condition today. Maybe it was just having a bad day and wanted to take it out on us or perhaps it had some new oil it had purchased online and wanted to show it off. Either way, ...
Here We Go Again
I’m going to stress the “to” part of “Gutter to Glory” today. As in #2. As in how I bowled last night… Yeah, it was stinky. It wasn’t exactly shaping up to be the best formula for success at the start of the week. Three rough practice sessions produced only incremental improvements and latent frustration ...
A New High for Low
After ending 2011 with a 600 series in my portfolio, this week felt great at the start. Couple that with a bit of breathing room at work and there was a lot to feel good about. I was still holding off on scheduling any press conferences or asking Roto Grip to name their next ball ...
Out with a Bang
Another week went by and I’m late again. The end of the year has been insane, but we got two huge sites launched at work and the stress is off my back. Looking forward to a slightly less busy start to 2012. And… new goals for glory! Because, as it happens, I closed out 2011 ...
Quick Update
Wow, the holidays make it difficult to keep up with a blog. If only I was writing about Christmas decorations and poorly decorated cookies… I didn’t even get a chance to talk about my failure during league last week! I guess a Christmas with less failure in it is a good thing. But, here I ...
Splits and Strikes
Bowling was fun tonight. Challenging, fun, and rewarding. I haven’t bowled league in two weeks and was itching to get out on the lanes. No, itching is an understatement. I was starving for some real bowling action. It definitely helped that I had a new weapon. It’s not a secret that I came upon a ...
Traveling
It’s been a while hasn’t it? The holidays are upon us and between Thanksgiving and Christmas, things become pretty hectic. I’m not making excuses for the lack of blog posts. Okay, I am. On top of the usual festivities, this is also the “we’re up to our eyeballs” time at work. So, bowling hasn’t been ...
