Instead of Dad saying he didn't want to 'intrude' on our Mother/Daughter time he COULD have told my sister and I that he hated bowling and that it
physically hurt him. He could have just come out for lunch (which was fabulous).

Mmm, salmon, shrimp, and scallops, all over rice, and flavored with this fabulous sweet soy sauce.
Anyway, passive aggressive family is...

But bowling was a go! And was pretty fun, Juliet played with a lackadaisical attitude that made her score better than the rest of us the first game, and then she and Dad were about tied for the second. After a while Mom and Marian started throwing around their body, which threw them off, and I started crapping out in the second came around halfway through. Then afterward we wandered into the little arcade section, and played skeeball. I wanted to play airhockey with Mom, but we couldn't find the puck. :( So we played skeeball instead! Which Mom had never done! ...I kept throwing too hard. XD It's been a while.
