bowling_1Although the weather forecast for this weekend was great, and ideal for doing some much-needed yard work, neither Eric nor I felt particularly motivated this morning. Instead, we lounged about for a bit, then decided to get out of the house for a bit. 

We ended up at Meijers, where they had a great clearance on women’s bowling shoes. Unfortunately, they didn’t have any men’s shoes though… 

Then we headed over to the local bowling alley. Although we’ve lived here three years, and we both love bowling, this was actually the first time we’ve gone there together! Our scores were pretty low, so I won’t post ‘em, but we’ve decided to start bowling on a regular basis. 

We’re going to use today’s games to establish an average score, and use it to compute a handicap for each of us. Then, on weekends that we don’t have any specific plans, we’re going to hit the bowling alley and play a couple of games… and whoever wins gets to decide how we spend the day/weekend.

If I win, I’ll be able to coerce Eric into working on my honey–do list, accompany me on a shopping trip, or make him clean the bathroom. And if he wins, I might get stuck watching an entire season of some Sci-Fi (SyFy?) show, or playing video games. :)
