My talent is NOT consistently blogging.

Sorry it has been so long since a blog. It's safe to say blogging is not my talent. I think this shows why I am not talented at much... because it's hard for me to stay focused long enough to dedicate myself to something.

On that note, so many things have happened since I blogged last. Lets start with the bowling alley. I am still working in the bar at the bowling alley. Excuse my humility here but, for the people that like a stiff drink... I am talented at bartending. Bartending has come easy to me. Being a cocktail waitress has not. In fact, I might be the worst cocktail waitress in the history of all cocktail waitresses. If I'm not spilling your drink on you, I'm giving you the wrong change. Nothing is more embarrassing than having to go back and correct the mistake. Last night a woman was telling her sob story (shes getting kicked out of her house because she doesn't have a job and can't pay for it... doesn't want to work because in her mind she is SO benevolent and thinks people need the job more than her......Nice rational thinking, lady) and asked me to get her a shot of Jose and told me to make her uncle pay. I bring the shot of Jose but she is nowhere in site. To avoid the awkward situation of telling her uncle he needs to pay for her drink... I paid for it. If it weren't for a 3 dollar tipper then next round I would have walked out of work in the negative on tips. Needless to say... waitressing is also not my talent.

There are many perks* for working at the bowling alley.... FREE BOWLING! I'm frequently asked "what's your average?" or "what are you bowling" or "Want to bowl a game when you get off" (this is followed by creepy winks). Here are the answers: 1. If I knew how to figure out a fucking average I wouldn't be working here (knowing how to figure out an average makes you like a CPA, right?!) 2. If I were actually bowling I would be bowling BALL, dummy! 3. No, I never want to bowl with you.

Here is a quick bowling lesson 1. 300= perfect game 2. tournament/league style bowling is freaking confusing after a pitcher of MGD. 3. It's a lot harder than it looks. When I bowl.... my score is usually 40-60... so yeah...... bowling sucks nor is it my talent.

Besides working at the bowling alley, I got myself a girlfriend. She is so cute. And I "came out" to my parents. And I got a Google Android Pride shirt (IT'S SO CUTE!). And... I've lost 35lbs (32lbs after the burrito I just ate from Mi Pueblo). Turned 25. Got a "BIG GIRL" job. AND gave big red an oil change.

I'll tell you more about those later!

* "perks at the bowling alley" should really just be a singular "perk"
