Bowling Lessons
I’ve never been described as having “thin, dainty fingers.”
Recently my little brother got married, and his reception was at a bowling alley. I know…awesome, right? I have another friend who his brother got married on the same day in another city and his reception, was also at a bowling alley. Bowling Alley receptions, so hot right now.
Well, it turns out this small bowling alley had a limited ball selection, which is always a challenge for me at any bowling alley to find a ball that fits my massive thumb. But for thick, full-fingered people like me, there was one solid option at this bowling alley.
So my brothers, my dad, and I who all have husky thumbs all shared this one ball…which is challenging when you’re bowling on two different lanes. A lesson in patience. After waiting long enough for the ball to return over and over, I decided this was my opportunity to work on my curveball…is that what it’s called in bowling? My summer bowling league in elementary school would be deeply disappointed in me.
So I tried.
I tried the weird curveball thing on a smaller ball that couldn’t fit my thumb.
