Oh, spare me!

Last evening Brad and I went out with Jeff and Angela Peterson. We wanted to go big ball bowling but open lanes weren't available until 9. On the verge of throwing out the idea we found ourselves eating delicious brownie sundaes with peanut butter topping at the Backroom, reminiscing, laughing, and reaquainting ourselves after what seems to be years. Time fell away and we were on the road to Stadium Ten Pin.

I must make a disclaimer that NEVER in my life have I been a good bowler - not even a slightly decent bowler. My average score must be in the 50s until I went to Arkansas where I broke 100 for the first time ever.

Again. The universe was aligned - that must be it because there wasn't a full moon - I, Lindy, scored 131 points in our first game beating the others by 50, 60, and 70 points. I confidently gloat of my achievement because I can guarantee that a reoccurence is unlikely.

Mmm

33 days until we move our clocks forward! Let the countdown begin.

Who do you look like?

My cousin, who resembled Ben Stiller, directed me to a website that scans your face and finds the closest celebrity match. I did a few pictures and the results were the same. Evidently I most look like Charlize Theron at 73% with runner up Evangeline Lily. I don't know...maybe, maybe not. But I'll happily take it.

One of the photos I uploaded had a friend with me who is also a white female and sadly the system found a black male for her result. Be sure to specify your gender! It only takes a few minutes, try it out and post your results.

Attack

Clever with poetic clues, Brad sent me on a scavenger hunt for my Valentine's present. The clues led me into his bedroom telling me to press "power" on his tv. It was then that the melodic sounds of Tetris Attack escaped the speakers and made way to my happy ears. Under a wrapped box with a bow on top lay my "new," very own Super Nintendo with TA loaded and ready to play! Oh - and Mario World came as a bonus!

Thanks Brad - this is by far the best Valentine's gift EVER!

If you're jealous, it's okay.

Hello, Mr. President


If I hadn't been using my phone to leave a message for my brother, I would have snapped a shot of the presidential motorcade that locked up traffic along I-93 in Manchester today. Simply going out to retrive m&ms for our office candy jar, I had completely forgotten that George W. Bush was coming into Manch-Vegas for a speech this afternoon, and my quick 15 minute errand turned into 45 minutes of waiting. Thankfully, I got to see the whole string of armored vehicles drive past me and helicopters circling above. It truly was like watching a live episode of 24 only way cooler because it was real.

Interestingly, I saw that a few of the black suburban's were carrying racks on top of the vehicles that looked like guns. Does anyone know what those are?
