Have you ever heard the phrase "Once is a fluke (or lucky), twice is a trend, and three times is a streak?"
Well, last week I wore The Shirt and our team broke our funk and went 3-1. Both Tai and Arvin bowled well and I had a nice night. Tonight, we went 4-0. Arvin bowled well in two games, and on average in the other; Jean had a very nice night, above average in two games with one nearly 150; and Lilia, Tai's girlfriend who was filling in for him, bowled her two highest games ever (113 and 107).
Your humble narrator (a-hem! It's my story, and I say I'm humble, dammit) bowled a very nice 179, 225, 225 for a 629 series and a 209 average.
So, obviously, I have to wear The Shirt next week to see if it becomes a streak.
Of course, next week has a secondary challenge, as the person who got me The Shirt will actually be there to meet the bowling team and watch me bowl. No pressure, eh?

All right! Way to go! Big scores, big expectations, big ego?
ReplyDeleteI repeat: do NOT wash the shirt.
If the team had a LACK of funk... I'm guessing he already washed it. :)
ReplyDeleteAh, but knowing my bf who hates laundry, he likely *didn't* wash it :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing The Man in action. Hope I'm not too much of a distraction ;)
