I like to play games, but only the fun ones

Hey Friends, family, strangers, stalkers... Here's what's been happening lately


Nick and I were bored the other evening so we went to Target to buy some fun games with the gift cards we got from our wedding.

Nick LOVES Risk. but he loves CREAMING me at Risk even more. I lost so bad the first time we played I cried. WHAT? {don't judge} It was overwhelming! Have you ever played Risk? I was trapped trying to protect Europe and Asia while he owned the whole rest of the continent...tough game. I almost beat him the second time {even Nick admitted he got nervous I was going to win at one point}, so I feel as if I have gained a little bit of my honor back.

Then we played chess. I thought I had the upper hand the whole game and then OUT OF NOWHERE Nick kills all my guys and totally traps my poor King. I didn't cry. I mean come on, it's just chess. I even asked Nick if he got nervous that I was about to win in this game too...he said No.

We have yet to play Mexican Train with our new domino set. Which is the game I'M looking forward to, because since there is no "killing" involved, I figure I have the upper hand.

OK, now to say something that has been bothering me lately...
I know that my friends are reading my blog without saying HI
I can see you thanks to my good buddy the
Stat Counter. I know who you are, but what I don't know is why you don't want to have virtual fun with me by NOT commenting. What's with that? I would LOVE to hear from you!
Just yesterday I had visits from SEVEN really close friends, who for some reason, decided they didn't want to grace me with their virtual presence. PLEASE comment. You are important people in my life.
So here's your chance. Leave a comment. I can see you!

loves,
-K

Okay, you got me. I get bored sometimes so I go to your blog and read it or use it to link to other blogs. Yeah yeah, I'm lame. Anyway, it sounds like you guys are doing really well. I am sorry to hear that you cried after losing Risk, but I hope you kick Nick's rear next time. You guys should buy Ticket to Ride. Good times. Anyway, I hope you are doing well with everything. (Virtual love sent in your direction, but not that eerie, lesbian type of virtual love.)
