We invited the TV-challenged neighbors over to watch the Rose Bowl with us today. Laury, Auna and I played a game of Scrabble. Winner-Laury. Will showed up later with the Monopoly game. He plays aggressively, and showed little emotion as he quickly took out his Mom of the game. Auna and I were able to skirt by his hotels on Boardwalk and Parkplace, but then Will's lack of cash caught up with him and he was gone when he landed on one of Auna's properties. The game drug on and on as Auna and I went around and around the board, but finally she landed twice on my properties, bye-bye Auna. Winner-Aunt.
Oh, by the way, I also won the 31 game last night at their house. $6.00!
Watching the Rose Bowl proved to be a challenge, since Steve had to keep flipping back and forth between the game and the Matrix marathon that was also on, and frustrating everybody.
Like he hasn't seen every Matrix a dozen times, and it was a close game, excuse me. I took the remote away from him once, but he got it back.
All in all, though, it was a fun way to start the new year.
