Day 21 = Home Workout + Dart Bowl

Friday night sometimes opens with surprises. And I love surprises. Tonight was no different in that I opted to meet some co-workers for a last minute happy hour at Sam's Boat. I love this time of year when the sun is beginning to take its time to set and happy hour weather is about 73 degrees and breezy with low humidity. Perfect for a cold cerveza.

After the sun went down, we all decided to move the party over to Dart Bowl. On my way there, I picked up a cupcake at Hey, Cupcake on Burnet Road because I'd been wanting to try this location. I was disappointed in the freshness. Isn't this where they bake the cupcakes that they then sell in an airstream trailer on South Congress? Shame on you, cupcake bakers. These should be poppin' fresh!

I'd never been to Dart Bowl, and I'm always up for adventures, but bowling is something at which I am the suck. I took it in college and I think I made an A in the class, but that didn't keep me coming back to the lanes.

The best part about bowling (and most of college) is that you can drink beer. And at Dart Bowl, you can get long necks shaped like bowling pins. I felt like I was the first one ever to point out this cute factor until I gave it some thought and realized these novelty bottle shapes have probably been around for a while and I'm just straight up out the loop on it.

I'd heard stories about Dart Bowl, so I knew this night would at least reveal some answers to the mystery that shrowded this place for me. For one, everyone says they have the best enchiladas, but it turns out that all they really are are corn tortillas filled with cheese and then covered in Wolf Brand Chili. And I'm sure you all know that distinct canned, salty flavor of Wolf Brand Chili. These enchiladas are awesome, yet I can be easily swayed by hype.

When I got home, I did endure a 21st workout. I didn't kick off my shoes and fall into bed like I normally would on a Friday night. I got out that 10-minute boot camp DVD and worked that body. Bowling is a sport, but it's not really a workout.
