On Friday night, I went out with a bunch of friends from the Mom's Group. We went bowling at Kingpin's. It was fun, I definitely do not have a promising career in bowling. I think my best score was 96. Although, I do not think I had the lowest score. Rachel was a Pro! Now I know what she does while Isaac is in school. She has been practicing or she just has an unnatural talent for bowling. Melissa has a funny hop that she does before she throws the ball down the lane. I tried to mimic it and ended up smacking my left had on a pole. Ouch-that hurt! Julee had so much fun that she almost left the bowling alley with her rented bowling shoes still on. Speaking of bowling shoes, someone should design a new line of bowling shoes. It is about time we retire these ugly stereotypical bowling shoes and replace them with some hip Van or Converse type shoes. How great would that be? Teresa got really giggly. She's so much fun to hang out with! We had a lot of great laughs.
Afterwards, we went next door to La Parilla mexican restaurant. Shannon and Ginger met up with us. Teresa and some of the gals ran in to put our name on the 'list' and came back with a pitcher of Margaritas. While enjoying some great conversation over dinner, I was craving some fried ice cream but was a little too full to order it and a little too cheap too. So I jokingly said to Julee, hey it's my birthday today. I am not sure if she believed me or if she caught on that I was joking until later. She talked to the waiter who had the whole wait staff come to our table to sing Happy Birthday and even gave me a big sombrero to wear. They presented me with a gigantic fried ice cream with a candle. I was kind of embarrassed that they went to all the trouble but after a few drinks, it was nice having a birthday...even if it was my 'pretend birthday'. We all devoured the fried ice cream just short of licking the plate. It was delicious!! Julee got a shot for me but I knew better than to take it. I knew I had to wake up in the morning to 2 energetic children. I took a sip, and passed it around the table. The sad thing was, everyone took a sip and we still could not finish the shot. It tasted really strong but we were all trying to figure out what in the world it was. All Julee knew was it was supposedly a 'girly shot'. I tasted cherry, while Julee tasted chocolate. I think someone said Whiskey Royale was in it?? Not sure but I felt bad for it to go to waste. Melissa finally took one for the team and finished it. Alcohol kills off all the germs right?!? We had such a great time and I laughed so much that my face hurt!
