Game

We had a bunch of people over to watch the US game this week and things were going really well … until USA lost.  We found out that people really don’t feel like hanging out and partying too much if there is really nothing to celebrate any more.  We started with 12 people and about ten minutes after the game was over we were down to five and those were the five that were living in the apartment for the weekend.  Everyone suddenly had something they remembered they needed to do.

We had some friends in from out of town so we were busy going out to eat, going to the pool and just hanging out.  It turns out they like Blokus a lot and were intrigued by the Trigon version I have.  We sat out by the pool in the evening and played which was a great way to end a good afternoon of hanging out and having a good time.

At one point this weekend, one of my roommates left a half eaten pancake on his plate and got up.  When we asked if he was going to finish it, he said he was too full at which point a chase ensued.  I had the pancake in my hand and we both ran around the apartment; him to escape and me to force that pancake down his throat if it was the last thing I did.  I ended up kicking a wall and possibly breaking a toe.  He still didn’t eat the pancake.  Jerk.
