Monday's Word of the Day: "Vacation"

Monday's "to do" list:
• Take the car in for an oil change.
• Go to the post office to mail items I sold on Ebay yesterday.
• Shopping at Target for all the things we've run out of... and I'm afraid it looks like a long list.
• Get peanut oil from Home Depot for the Turkey fryer.
• Figure out what to make for dessert on Thanksgiving.
• Grocery shopping for the week, as well as, for Thanksgiving.
• Mow the lawn before the rains come.
• Clean my desk (ha ha ha ha ha, that's a good one.)... it seems like I'm either working on that one every week... or at least thinking about it.
• Wait for the HVAC people to come between 3 pm-5 pm to perform their seasonal checkup.
• Continue to have Kim annihilate and embarrass me while bowling on the Wii... damn, I just can't beat her!  grrrrrrrr.

and finally... 

• Enjoy the first day of my Thanksgiving vacation.

Marissa always beats me on bowling too. She has this sidearm thing that is very effective. Anyway, try this: aim btw pins 1 & 3 then lob the ball high (to reduce spin) to throw a "straight ball". I've had some turkeys with this stategy. High score is 240 so far.

Thanks for the tip. I got so exasperated playing Kim, that I just sat on the couch and tried it. Of course, I immediately strung together a turkey... still lost however. I tried replicating that strategy today, but I reverted back to my sorry self. Rrrrrrrrrrrrr.

My top score is 181, Kim's is 225.

She had "pro" standing for little while, I just suck.
