Injury on Team Ham Candy

Last night we went up-scale bowling at Mustang Alleys for Andy's birthday. Fun was had by all. Team Ham Candy (the name came from a bad French translation of hambone to jambon bone) had a record-setting 2nd game. There were a lot of high-fives and victory dances. Maybe a few too many high fives. About halfway through the 2nd game, I had a sweet streak of completing frames. After I came back down to my usual 7s and 8s, I realized that my left shoulder was killing me. I'm right-handed, so it was not from the actual act of bowling. I was injured by all the jubilant high-fives... I think I strained my rotator cuff.

As a secondary injury note, Eric has a big ol' blister on his thumb from the bowling ball. I did not remember bowling being so dangerous.

Fellow lady down!
Sorry about the forceful high-fives!

Erin and I talked about this at soccer last night. We tried to name her injury, and I think her idea was the best.

Martin Grammatica had endzone dance knee (although he was dancing on like the 40 yard line).

Oh man...and Nick's parents were trying to convince him bowling was the way to go (after his torn ACL from soccer). I'm thinking maybe a speed walking team may be safer...want to join?
