A bachelor's Thursday

My week as a bachelor is thankfully coming to an end. If you happen to read this post early in the day on Friday, please pray for my family as they make the long drive back from Pittsburgh.

Tonight I went bowling with some of the camp staff (Brandon, Danny & Maranda). It was fun, with just one exception.....the dude who bowled in the lane next to me.

Most people who bowl know that it is considered good bowling etiquette not to make your approach at the same time the person in the lane next to you is doing so. Well, it seemed that this evening, the guy in the next lane made his approach a split second before I did for just about every frame. So gladly, I waited for him. Unfortunately, it felt like he took about 30 minutes each time he prepared to swing his arm. When he finally did, he would hurl the ball down the lane and most often, it would either go into the gutter or hit the end pins.

I must admit, though I looked happy on the outside, this was a true test of my patience.

On another note, I was contacted yesterday by a publisher who is interested in publishing my book "Words that Sting" on a larger scale. I'm a little interested, but I'm waiting to see if I hear from a few other publishers first. This too will be a test of my patience, but no where near as bad as the bowling guy.
