Tonight was my every other Saturday bowling league with my two besties and one of the besties family friend. Now, these past two weeks have been brutal mentally and emotionally. I've been helping move my aunt into her new house and been at her old house everyday this week cleaning it out and setting up for a yard sale. I don't know why I thought tonight would be good, the only thing good about it was my bestie guy who came over afterwards.
Now, I don't mind children, I really don't. I honestly don't know why I assumed that a couple on the league wouldn't bring their three kids (4, 5, and 1 I believe) the younger one goes into one of the baby crib pens and the other two just run around the bowling alley asking everyone for money after they're told no by their parents and grandparents...and this is every league night. It's an adult league, and honestly, I feel like it's a peewee league with the children there because all they do is run around and scream before asking you for money. The asking for money thing goes on the entire night. They're parents ignore them and the grandparents just tell them to sit and ignore the rest of the time.
I know I am not the only one that feels this way. A few others tonight finally had it as well and it's only the second day of the season (the children have been going to the bowling alley since they were born I am assuming since they were there last year when I visited a friend as she bowled). I didn't even grab a drink tonight out of fear of snapping and actually yelling at them. If it wasn't enough for that they wanted to take the gift bag I had brought with me for one of my besties because they thought I brought it for them. Apparently they're not use to realizing the world doesn't revolve around them, but everyone grows up differently. I grew up knowing my place, but that's me.
But honestly, I don't mind children. I just feel that if you have more than two and you can't control them, don't bring them to the bowling alley; get a babysitter and if you can't afford one, stay home. All in all, I had an okay game wise. I think I can reach an average in the 190's this year, though I have bowled more 200 games than anything in my life already and should be there.... Ah well. Two more weeks before the next league night...and we get to face that team with the children. I wanna just be done with it. I'm tired...so night ya'll. Sorry for any spelling errors.
