Who doesn't love juicy gossip. Tom Cruise jumped up and down on a couch on Oprah. It worked for him. I think I am going to profess my love on my blog.
I am afraid I might be falling in love.
After a lot of flirting and teasing on both our parts I think I am ready to take my relationship to the next level.
I've made eyes with golf clubs and courses for years but I've never really made a move. I always teased the clubs and game by saying I would play, and by taking lessons and by playing lots of mini golf, but I'd never think about doing anything more than that.
After being reintroduced to golf clubs by a family friend I have decided that I am going to be making my move now.
We, (my clubs and I) went out on a date to the driving range. We had fun and we went again. Then after the driving range for the second time we went and did something a little bit more private. I went to the putting green, which is so much more intimate then the driving range with all those people, those annoying ball picker-uppers and lots of flying golf balls.
My golf club and I shared a special moment while on that practice putting green. After sinking a chip shot on my 14th ever chip (this is what I call fate) my golf club and I shared our first kiss. When my lips touched my club I tasted dirt and I just began to blush. My clubs and I went home after that, both so excited and anticipating our next date.
Someone suggested that I play hard to get with my clubs but I just have an addictive personality. I knew that golf had a lot of fun with me and that I had a lot of fun with golf so I decided that we should go out on another date immediately.
I traveled two hours two days later and went to a putting green to do some more chipping. Things were going so well. I didn't hit one into the hole but I came close. It wasn't perfect, but it was challenging so I kept wanting to play. Golf and I spent another hour together that day. The challenge made it fun and I did well enough that we decided that we needed another date, immediately, so we went to the driving range the next day.
On the date to the driving range I got blisters, but like the cliche says, "No pain, No Love"...ok maybe gain. I also drove one ball 175 yards, a new personal best. My chipping was more consistent on this date. Golf and I have been on so many dates now and we've had so much fun. It's been five hours since I've seen my golf clubs but it feels like five years. I have been facebook stalking and googling them for the last three hours. This isn't healthy, but it feels so good.
It sucks that facebook stalking has lead me to see some problems but I think, somehow, our relationship will overcome these problems. Golf is so expensive and so high maintenance. Finding out prices of greens fees, driving range fees, golf balls, cost of a round and of new clubs is definitely throwing up some red flags but I don't know if that is enough to keep me away. I really think I am falling for golf. I think we are falling in love. We are not a bad romance, we are more than just friends.
P.S. Buy us a toaster for our wedding.
You have to admit this was different, but very creative.
