Bowling Pins (as in Buttons)

If I were bowling for dollars, I'd still be broke. I come from a bowling family. My parents were on leagues. My brother worked in a bowling alley. My uncles were on leagues. My grandparents dated at the bowling alley on Friday nights. Everyone around me bowled and for decades.

Yet, I was always better if I had gutter bumpers. My best score is they worse they've ever done. Bowling was always a traumatic experience for me because everyone had tips. I could never just go to the bowling alley and roll the ball down the lane.

Still, I have fond memories of the sport that never was meant for me. I even have a bowling pin in storage. Not a button pin, but an actual white and red-striped bowling pin reject from the bowling alley my brother worked at. So I had to smile when I found jj_paul's Gallery at Zazzle this morning. I particularly like the round bowling ball designs on magnets, buttons and keychains. There are many colors and options.

My Favorite Things

Thirteen of My Favorite Things Raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens.... I love watching and singing along to a great musical. When I was a kid I used to run about singing like life was a musical. People would ask me what I was singing, but I was just making it up as I went. And I love dancing. I talked my mother into letting me take ballet lessons for a little while. But I wasn’t graceful and my ballet teacher didn’t have very liberal thoughts on teaching children. If you sucked, she let you know. But, she couldn’t ever accuse me of not enjoying dancing. All my favorite songs are either on soundtracks, or are great story like “Desperado” by the Eagles. Listing thirteen favorites might be the subject of another Thursday Thirteen. Some of the movie songs I’ve listened to while typing today: Da Funk by Daft Punk on The Saint soundtrack and #1 Crush by Mundy on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. Writing. I can get lost in writing. I love creating stories and characters. Apparently e
