We won!


Not a trial, silly. My bowling team, Red Stryke (derived from the name of the softball team on which we all play - Red Scare. It was suggested that because we were all very bad bowlers that we should tone down the rhetoric and call ourselves the Pink Startle, but that idea never got off the ground), won our ladies' bowling league last night. We play in a 100% handicap league, so I feel a little like a fraud given that our handicaps were HUGE, but we did win the two games we needed to win even without the handicap. I have waited my whole life to be able to say to people, "I can't, it's my bowling night," but I had no idea it would feel this good. I was easily the youngest in the league and it lived up to all my fantasies, replete with big hair-dos, tacky bowling ball bags, and women named Marge and Flo. But those ladies were nice and my team rocks, handicap or no.
