My friends and I have a little ritual we like to hold from time to time, called Game Night. Now, I was born after the time when staying at home with your parents to play Trivial Pursuit was considered quality time, but before the time when staring at your facebook page for 17 hours a day became fashionable. Honestly, I just can't quite understand the whole facebook thing. I have my own page, naturally, and have cyber stalked many many high school classmates, but I just don't understand all of the gadgets and games and pokes and just things that go on there.
Perhaps I'm missing something from the whole experience.
At any rate, Game Night was just fabulous. My nearest and dearest gathered around a small Ikea coffee table, college-dorm style and played a rousing hand of Phase 10. Now, for any of you who have never experienced the joy (or horror, as it may be) of playing Phase 10, you simply must try it someday. It's a simple card game which requires you to get certain "sets" or "runs" of numbers, but I'm telling you, it gets vicious! Or perhaps that's just the lot that I hang out with.
There's nothing quite as enjoyable to me as Game Night. I'd take that over TV, a night out at the bar or doing laundry, any day.

On a side note....
I actually made a rather grand decision earlier this week that will most likely have a great affect on my near future quite soon if all goes well. So if you see me missing a bit or slower than usual in response, it's because of The Great Decision. When things are a bit more solidified, I'll be sure to let all of you in on it. Until then... let's just hope for the best, shall we?
Nighty night,
