The End of Another Season, The Middle of Nowhere, My Band Luck Continues, Bowling

And once again the season ends - especially early for me since neither one of my teams made it to the postseason. The Sox imploded under the weight of horrendous luck and injury, and the Nationals...well...just sucked. But at least we had Zimmerman and Soriano to make it interesting. Hopefully next year, Sori will be back, Zim will maintain, and Patterson will be healthy. That right there could make all the difference. Combined with an improving bullpen, and we might be able to be competetive.

I went to a wedding this weekend out in Nellysford Virginia. It's somewhere slightly past bumblefuck. Anyways, it was at a nice little bed & breakfast. The most amusing part - sleeping in horse stalls. I mean, they had beds in them... and doors. But they were horse stalls. Would I choose it myself? Nay...

----------------------------

Also this weekend, I checked out a band at the Black Cat that I was e-mailing with about joining. Well, there was a bit of a post-show tiff between some members, and now it doesn't look like the group is going to be around. And thus my streak of not being in a band continues...

Bowling

Last night we went bowling after Happy Hour at Lucky Strike to celebrate Ellen's Birthday. The first part of the first frame, I rolled a Gutter Ball. This of course seemed to indicate my complete ineptness at bowling was going to continue. Then something strange happened. On the next roll, I changed my technique slightly, and I got a spare - knocking all 10! Next frame? 9! Then 2 Strikes in a row! The rest of the night I rolled 6s and 7s, but still - I'm amazed that I found myself a groove! It's a sport that I suck less at!!!
