Game Crazy

 I had a more productive weekend than last:  the laundry is done, and the house is semi-clean.  I've had to wrestle my laptop away from CH:  he's found some tank game to play, and he's determined to beat the 12 year olds he's playing with!  Apparently my laptop is faster than his, so he's been using mine.  It must be a good game:  he usually doesn't get into playing computer/xbox games.  YS has some flannel pj bottoms that he spends a lot of his time in when he's home; we call them his "gaming gear".  CH hasn't gotten to that point yet...when if he does, I'll start worrying about him and will pull the plug on using my laptop!

I game  CH a stern warning about eating/drinking around the computer.  It went something like this:  DO.NOT. EAT/DRINK. AROUND. MY. LAPTOP.  PERIOD.  He bought an external hard drive so we can back up our laptops from time to time.  He thinks his is on its last leg, so backing up will be a wise thing for him to do before it "up and dies" on him!

I think I'm finally getting the hang of Words with Friends.  Someone (not naming any names, but you know who you are!) doubles my score every time.  A quick google search on "how to win at Words with Friends" gave me some much-needed tips, so at this moment she's only beating me by about 40 points, and the game is almost over.  Oh, and I've given up cheating.  :)  I still like "Hanging with Friends" better, so if you play WWF and want to try something a little different, check out "Hanging" and look me up.

I've got to mention the Packers' game.  What in the world was going on?  Those guys couldn't catch a pass if their lives depended on it.  Eli was ON; he was amazing.  Here's the dilemma:  Who do I cheer for now?  I guess I'll cheer for whoever the Patriots play!

Have a good Monday!

    The Packers game was such a bummer. So sad their season is over!

    I am terrible at WWF but I have decided that all my friends must cheat! lol

    Love WWF, I play with a friend who used to live here, but moved to Colorado. I think the game gives us a reason to chat and I like that.

    Don’t know about the Packers but Words With Friends is a great way to pass the time. Better than watching TV. … WHAT AM I SAYING! … There’s nothing better than TV, but I’ve come up with a great way to build your WWF skills and have fun with TV trivia at my blog. Let me know what you think of it.

    What do you mean by "cheat"? I call it resourcefulness!

    I haven't tried Words with Friends yet. I am going to have to do some research on my new phone. Any suggestions?
