I think I’m going to start doing reviews of our gaming nights, and other fun things we host.
Yesterday’s gaming night was a lot of fun, either because of,
or despite the light turn out.
Hugh, Matt, Sarah C, Lauren, Jim, Dina, and I were there.
Calypso, Tortoise & Hare, Celebrities, and Taboo were played.
The meta-game required to decide on Taboo was pretty long.
My pronouncement of “The next person who says something not related to choosing the next game
has to remove a piece of clothing” was met by a quick snide comment by Lauren as she removed a sock, and
a similar snarky comment by Dina as she removed an outer sweater.
Sarah’s enthusiastic exclamation of “We’re playing Strip Conversation!” made me realize that
I’d been outclassed at the meta-game.
I probably shouldn’t play poker against Sarah.
Note to self: do not let the girls play Taboo together on one team.
They kicked our asses.
They regularly scored 6’s, and I think Lauren hit a 7.
For some reason, most of us ordered salads. Odd.
Maybe it’s because we were full of scrumptious spinach and artichoke dip that Sarah and Matt brought.
Laura B. didn’t show, so no juggling flaming torches.
The offer to juggle them is still on for next gaming night.
Also, despite my Cesar reference in the invitation:
If we're ambitious (Brutus says the Varacalli's are ambitious, and Brutus is an honourable man) we'll try and fit another one in at the end of March.
I only realized it was the Ides of March yesterday.
In more news, my dad’s going to be in town sometime in mid-April.
We may schedule gaming night while he’s here so y’all
can meet the one who’s responsible for most of my quirks.
I’m starting to get an itch for Celebrities again, so I’m urging the 65 Flett Celebrities
Power Team to make a showing, as well as anyone else who’s good (or thinks they are good).
