Stuff and Nonsense
It's snowing again. I think we got another inch or two overnight, and it's still coming down. I'm so glad I don't have to go anywhere today; just need to clean up after last night.
We got together with a bunch of friends and played monopoly all night and ate pizza. It was a lot of fun. I tried to corner the market with my secret tactic of getting the red/orange corner and getting everyone coming and going. Want Park Place and Board Walk? Fine. You can have ‘em! Red and Orange is where the action is at. ;) That’s my strategy, and for the most part it works. I have to be careful, though, or people catch on. OH NOES! My room mates read this! I AM SUNK!!! Hehe.
We’re going to try and get together next week and play Settlers of Cataan, I think. And more pizza, of course.
It's really really great living with friends like this. I had room mates in college and stuff, but that was all... you know. Assigned room mates. Crazy people. I wound up living with some people who were nice and all, but... we just didn't have a lot in common. And usually our sleep/wake/class schedules didn't match up, either, so when I wanted to get together with friends, it was never in our dorm room. Now, there's people to eat dinner with every night, and someone's always up for popping in a movie or something. We've been working our way through Babylon Five and picking out the sources that inspired Straczynski. After this, I think we might watch Buffy or something else nerdy. Huzzah, nerds! Anyway, the having people around all the time is great, and the having similiar interests? Also great. What's possibly the greatest of all, though, is even though we have shared living areas (living room, kitchen, dining room, you know) we have seperate sleeping areas. So there's privacy, which is something that was sorely lacking in dorm life.
