Early Present


This is the new bowling ball that Sheri has purchased for me for Christmas. She wasn't able to find a certain area online to ask for a specific type of pin placement. So she reluctantly asked for my help knowing that she would have to give away the surprise. The website is dumb in the way it asks you for this or that and basically hides this area to ask for certain specs, but all is well and the bowling ball is here.
Sheri thinks that the ball is prettier in real life than this picture above. I only looked at it a second before work last night and I was opposite. The quick glance that I took made me think that it is prettier in the picture above. It was only a quick look like I said so I might change my mind. I don't really care what the ball looks like as long as it helps my game.
I bowled with a different bowling ball last week than I had been all year and I was rolling the ball a lot better. I missed some easy spares, but the week gave me a bit of confidence. That is something I haven't had all year and probably a lot of the reason that my average is down almost 20 pins from last year! I had better figure something out soon, because Nationals is going to be here before I know it. Sheri's due date is April 23rd and I have to go to Reno to bowl March 12th or the 13th. She better not have an early delivery or she is on her own!
I had to go and get part of her Christmas early as well, she loves Harry Potter so I had to get the Bluray before she did.
Funny story, last week Terminator Salvation came out on DVD. It wasn't at the redbox so I went to rent it at Hastings. They had the Bluray so I just bought that because to rent a Bluray is like $6 there and the option to buy was $20. I bought my second Bluray of my own. They are of course Sheri's and mine, but we know who's is who's. She bought her Twilight and now has her Harry Potter. I have "I Love You Man" because that is just a movie that I can watch over and over. For some reason I bought Terminator Salvation. I don't usually just buy a movie unless I love it. I believe I was pretty lucky this time though. I liked Terminator Salvation a lot. I made Mikey J come over and watch it last week with me and he said it was his favorite Terminator yet! I like Terminator 2 the best, but wasn't disappointed in purchasing this one. I cranked the speakers and probably ruined Triton's hearing forever, but he watched most of it too and didn't complain about it being too loud. I don't hardly get to watch movies as loud as I want because Sheri doesn't like it that loud. I had it a little softer than I like, so it wasn't going to hurt Triton's ears. It did however try to vibrate the surround sound speaker off the television stand! Triton and I had already watched the movie before, and it was funny because he remembered this one part. When watching it a second time with Mikey J, Triton grabbed my arm and sat close because he remembered a scary part. It wasn't really scary, but it can make you jump and he jumped both times from watching it. It was just way cute how he remembered the exact point of the movie and prepared himself for it.
