fun and games

not the usual card party group, this group likes other games... so while everyone ate, i rested (so could have used a good long nap)... i was not hungry, in fact, i was stuffed... the party i threw for myself last night and all day produced gas and bloating... that actually was a good thing cuz it kept me away from the taco bell and myriad of other foods and desserts they had there... after they all were good and stuffed (like me), we played a movie trivia game with buzzers the timed answers and kept score on the video screen... i was slow, brain farting even more than the body wanted to (tmi?) and came in 4th out of 8 players... we played a briefer lightening round with the four winners and i won that cuz, well, i can be a competitive sob sometimes... i don't know nearly as much movie trivia from the last fifteen years, alas... i used to go to movies so regularly up until the early to mid-nineties... sigh and all, 'tis a shame rahlly it is...

then we played say anything where we made up the questions as we went along and it was fun... there were about a dozen of us in all, small group for a double birthday party, but it was kind of thrown together at the last minute yesterday so, fun for whomever could make it...

then some people left and those remaining played a card game called asshole... if you know the game, you know it's not a good thing to be the asshole... i somehow managed to stay out of that seat even though i had some horrible cards... i came in second without ever being president and only once being vice president (four cards were dealt that hand by mischief maker harpo and i had to give away a higher card to receive a lower card... that's not supposed to happen to the president or vice president... so next time we change those rules so the spirit and purpose of the game is not undermined)... we were burning out by the end and it was time to head home...

fun night, hope you found something fun to do too :)
