Bowling Night

The last 8 weeks have been so much fun bowling on Sundays with my friends Joe, Andre, and his wife, Kenisha.  Occasionally, Mike would step in and sub if we were short-which we often were.  (All of these people are folks from my building).  There were several times that Joe and I had to bowl the 2 games all by ourselves and we felt it the next day.


Anyway, over the last several weeks we never lost a a game until the Championship Game last night.  It turned out to be much closer than it looked it the begining of the game, as my team, The Round Abouts, were just off to a bad start.  It was really too bad that we didn't bowl our first game of the night during that game.  I bowled a 167 during that game.

On a bright note, my average is definitely going up.  My best game of this season was a 172!  We will be signing up again in April-That's a sure thing!

Space Dog

 Well, this weekend has not been a good one for Jesse.  I took her up to the vet in Dubai yesterday to finish up her round of shots for the year and to have her spayed.  When the gentleman came out to get her and take her from me when I dropped her off, she knew something bad was going to happen.  She just sat and wouldn't budge.  He finally had to pick her up and carry her off.


Later in the afternoon when I picked her up, she was as happy as she could be, given that she was still woozy, to see me.  Now either she had too much to drink or she got into a fight with a lampshade, because she had one on her head.  It makes her look like a Space Dog.  Anyway, she slept the entire way home, and even went right to her crate when we got back.  She moved very little last night and is still sore. 

At this point, I'm having to carry her up and down the stairs since the movement is just a little too much for her.  She is much happier just laying around and resting.  I don't think I've seen her be sleepy for so long, but am going to let her get all she can.


I'm sure she'll be back to her normal self in a few days!

Camels in Trucks

I will never get over the sight of camels in trucks as long as I am here.  These creatures get crammed into the back of the tiniest trucks imaginable and drive through the middle town like its nothing.  I couldn't help but snap this photo when I saw it.  Three camels were packed in tighter than sardines and the one decided to stick his neck out continuously to greet other cars.  I love this!
