Well, I did the no-tap bowling tournament on Saturday and wound up bowling a 631 series. That was OK, but I do know I could have done much better if I had practiced more and kept focused. My eyesight seems to hurt me most when I bowl. I catch a tiny bit of glare from something and it throws my focus off, and it takes me a couple of frames to recover. In the meantime, I get mad, hit a wall or a locker (or both!) with my left hand (non-bowling hand), and I become focused again.
Sunday was a lazy day. Did the laundry, played some Modern Warfare (and did pretty damn good if I do say so myself .. and I do!), and rested.
Today started out fairly normal. Got all my reports done, answered to the bosses that wanted which reports. Took care of what I could on my ice cream orders today. Now it seems rather quiet. I am not used to this. Most likely there is something that needs to be done, and I'll find out about it tomorrow when I come in. For now, I am going to enjoy the down time. I have to find a day to take a vacation. I already know this week is booked from Tuesday through Friday. Next week is the annual float trip, which I will be missing yet again.
Honestly, as much as I miss living near the ocean, and I haven't been to a beach or a lake in 7 years, I do not want to go on the float trip with my co-workers. Why? Because they are co-workers. They are not my friends. Nobody in my office would even qualify for me to call them a friend. They are people who will start drinking the moment we get on the bus to go to the lake, will drink just about all day, and everyone has their own little "cliques" they are involved in, and I'll be standing around (or floating) by myself and looking like a lost puppy waiting for someone to come over and pet me for awhile to keep me calm. It's bullshit. So, the youngsters want to go, and of course they ask me "Are you going?" to which I reply no and they are happy because they know I'll do the work. That's fine. Rather do the work than float around in the bullshit all day.
Well, in about an hour I'm playing kickball. It's part of the Corporate Olympics that we have every year. This is a new event this year, so it should be interesting. Plus, it's indoors. I just hope I don't hurt anything too badly. It's a long drive home from where the tournament is.
TTFN y'all!

Welcome to the (at times not so much) wonderful world of ME, a big steaming pile of (take your pick of words, insert here). There are times I may (try to be) funny, there are times I'm sincere. Sometimes I end up being both without even trying. But you're here, so I hope I can keep you entertained enough to come back for more.
