A few weeks ago Hermano was given a pass for 2 hours of free bowling at Lucky Strike for up to 8 people. For those of you that don’t know, Lucky Strike is like a fancy bowling alley that is also a full restaurant and bar. As John put it, it’s “businessman central”. Apparently Hermano thinks all my friends are cooler than his so the two of us went along with Steve, Jason, Nacho and John.
While we were waiting for everyone with real jobs to get out of work, Hermano and I hung out at the house with the puppies.
We got there a little before our reservation so we sat down and had some drinks
Unfortunately I’ve come down with some awfulness that is prob just a bad cold, but feels like the plague, so I had water when I really wanted a beer and even still felt progressively worse as the night went on. But that didn’t stop me from at least trying to have some fun!
It was obviously a night of serious bowling
My score from both games combined was 85. I am the best person ever to bowl against. Guaranteed win. Except, the second game I did beat Hermano. John and I spent most of the night catching up because we hadn’t seen each other since our pedicures and I MISSED him!! That is, when we weren’t being interrupted by pokes and glares and angry words about how we were holding up the game. Whoops. Sorry friends. John actually bowled pretty well, but spent most of the night complaining about the getting up and down from his seat and energy spent throwing the ball.
He had a long day of singing and dancing. Hard work my friends. 🙂 And to make matters worse, he had to deal with this
And then there was this
Then Steve made us mess with the curtain to be his photo back drop because he thinks every road is his race track and every place we go is his photography studio. 🙂
So of course John and I did a prom pose
At one time we referred to each other as hubby and wifey. Of course, I was the hubby and he was the wifey, but that’s a long story…
I’m so glad we got to go!! And to get the bowling, shoes and 2 appetizers for free? Pretty sweet deal. I wish we would have gotten some food pictures, because this my friends was NOT bowling alley food! They have salads and fancy sandwiches and even some unique flavor combos! I got 2 chicken sliders with tomato soup and it was delicious. Definitely did not taste super healthy, but what can ya do.
It has not been the healthiest week. Other than my physical therapy (which does feel surprisingly like a work out), I haven’t worked out since Monday and I just drowned my sickness sorrows in a bowl of pumpkin ice cream. When I’m sick, all I want to do is sit around and eat ice cream all day. For me, saving up all day for my 4 ounces when I feel like death warmed over is actually kind of an accomplishment. I hope I feel better soon because I am getting super antsy and I want to get out there and RUN!!!! Tomorrow was supposed to be 9 miles, and it’s just not gonna happen 🙁 Doesn’t mean we’re not moving straight to 10 though next week. I will not be set back. I have been dreaming about those double digits for a long time now!
Have a good night friends!!
