Following my uncle’s passing, I moved back to my hometown of Irvine in order to help my aunt out. My parents had moved to Hawaii five years earlier and upon hearing of my uncle’s death, they asked that I go live with my aunt to keep her company. After getting my request to be transferred to the Irvine branch filled about a year ago, I moved in with my aunt. Seeing as how I hadn’t seen my aunt since I was a little kid, it was pretty awkward at first. When I remembered that my aunt had been an avid bowler and been the first person to take me bowling as a child, I suggested that we head over to Irvine Lanes for a few games. Once we got there we eventually started to reminisce about those times. It really helped bridge that awkwardness created from over a decade apart from one another. Since then the two of us go bowling regularly. My aunt is a waitress and I work as a sales representative so both of our hours are pretty shaky. Most evenings either I end up having to entertain clients during happy hour or my aunt has to work a dinner shift. We end up going fairly late most times and have to remember to set our home security alarm from security choice. Still, we try to at least go once or twice every two weeks depending on my work schedule.
