I've blogged about it, and I've told my chat friends, but I wanted to let everyone else know that Saturday became a special day in my bowling history. I went bowling with my brother and shot a 200 in my last game, marking the first time I've ever had a game of 200 or better with family around to watch me do it. I just wish my mom (who's been deceased for over 13 years) could've seen me shoot one.

Congrats. Once you get the first one there is no going back. It is contagious and addictive. So good for you and good luck throwing even more 200 games.
