today is my day to hangout and do things with my dad. i love my dad. we have the best time. this morning we watched a bit of football on the tv. mom shooed us out of the house so she could have some quiet time so we took the car and went to the devil's millhopper. it's just down the road from our house. basically it's just a big hole in the ground with trees and stairs. even though it's sort of hot out the millhopper was nice and cool. dad and i had a nice walk around. we looked at a hole in the ground. i don't really care. i'm spending time with my dad. no matter what we do it's fun.
got home and dad was all- what else are we going to do today? mom had a look on her computer and spouted off a bunch of options. it was decided we should all go bowling and that's what we did. i was a little put out mom joined us but it is family day after all.
mom drove us to the bowling alley. we went in and it was all dark inside. lights were flashing and dancing around. what is this place? mom talked to the guy at the counter and he handed over a bunch of shoes. i've already got shoes on, what the heck? i followed mom and dad to our spot- lane 16. there was a tv and a keypad. mom punched in all our names. dad picked out some balls. mom explained the object of the game- roll the ball and knock down the pin. oh this is like skittles! i like playing skittles.
bowling was super awesome amazing fun. the ball was kinda heavy but i managed to push it down the lane no problem. the first few times i didn't knock down any pins, the ball kept rolling into the gutter. mom went and had a word with the counter guy and he set up the bumpers for me, automatically. what a world. every time it was my turn the bummers came out and helped my ball stay on track. my score improved loads. i came close to beating mom a few times. we bowled for hours.
on the way home from bowling i asked mom if we could go again tomorrow. she said- no, but we'll go again soon. alright then. i am so going to bed now.
