Tonight was the Laura’s company bowling night and she got me to go on the promise of bowling and pizza.

As it turned out, the pizza was unfortunate. There was nothing vegetarian for Laura to eat and the meat-ridden pizza was weird. It was moderately okay pizza but each different kind (Hawaiian, Greek, House etc.) had its own weird extra flavour undertone, which wasn’t overly pleasant.

Moving on, it was planned that we would have 24 teams of four but a bunch of people didn’t show up so we had to shuffle all the teams around. We had planned to play with people Laura worked with and actually knew but after the reshuffle, we were with some… interesting people.

Our five-man team consisted of Laura, myself and three trashy trash people. The adult male looked like he might have been a pan-handler from the park, looking mightily disheveled. He was accompanied by his similarly styled, bald daughter and her male “friend.” I’m sure his daughter had some heroic story about shaving her head for Cancer or something, but we never heard it. Her head just looked like someone cut the hair off a Barbie.

As interesting as they were, they were not the best bowling partners. As adult male continued drinking, I had to tell him every time it was his turn to play and even had to track him down at the bar a few times. He continued to drink, to not pay attention and eventually became inappropriately close and touchy to his daughter.

It was weird and about that time, we made our exit.
