Game day!

Today my besties and I played Cranium after finally figuring out how it works. That was pretty fun, except for the star performer cards. XD But it's a good game. You actually have to think.

All day long, my bothers were vegging out without doing their chores, so once my friends left and they finished their... I don't know, third movie of the day, we ate dinner and I made sure everything was finally finished. Then I got everyone together to play Telephone Pictionary. A certain bother of mine who hates writing and drawing both was being a grump face but I told him if he hated the game after the first round he could leave. (Nobody can hate Telephone Pictionary except Hellen Keller).
He started leaving once we passed the papers twice but I told him NOOO that the round was when the papers got all the way around and he brought a book back but at least he was participating and so I wasn't complaining. When we started reading the end results I watched him purse his lips trying to keep the scowl on his face when he wanted to laugh with the rest of us. But finally he admitted that he liked the result, not the actual playing of the game. And when we took a vote on whether we should play again or play Apples to Apples, he voted for Telephone Pictionary. >D

After the second round, we moved on to Apples to Apples. We played the version I learned when I played with Shadow and Sophie where everyone gets a green card along with their red cards and we got some pretty ridiculous combinations, such as "Deadly homeless shelters" and "Hostile American Babies." Oh, and "The Organic Little Mermaid."

I was so so so so so glad that I managed to keep my bothers off the computers and having fun for an entire evening. (This is a personal victory; they have some sort of screen addiction or something. o__o) Tomorrow we're going to play Murder In the Dark. Josh should be here, so I'm anticipating fun times.
