Day 25: I knew I shoulda done this b4 leaving for the night
I know this is already 2 and a half hours late (my time), but oh well. I still consider it Saturday until I fall asleep and wake up again :-p **in fact I'll just change the timestamp, even though I've already told you I started this at 2:30AM...shhh!!!**
Why was this so late? Well, lately I've been waiting til late evening to even start on my blogs, which is just the procrastinator in me shining through. Tonight a family friend was throwing a birthday cookout/dinner celebration for my sister. Okay, well technically she has been throwing one of these each month this year as a combined party for all the people that had a birthday. Tonight though, the others couldn't make it, so it was pretty much just for Amanda.
The food was great, including the homemade cake and apple pie. Then afterwards it turned into a game night, starting with Skip Bo (my first time playing it, and I might buy it myself for my own game nights). Then we moved on to Pictionary, which then almost went to charades but instead ended up being us picking random Pictionary cards and all acting out various words (often with hilarious results). Then Amanda and I taught everyone else (there were 5 of us by this time) a game we learned from some college friends called Tel-ictionary which is like "Telephone" (start with a phrase and whisper it down the line and she how badly it got butchered along the way, like gossip) combined with Pictionary.
So, I know it is probably less fun reading about it then actually being there, but this is all I had to write about tonight. Sorry. Hopefully I'll have something better for Sunday. Leave me some topics or questions in the comments and I'll try to do them justice or at least give you something better than this. Also, how was YOUR weekend? What did you do?

I'm pretty sure you can guess why today was awesome, so ya...no need to repeat myself. Goodnight! (though it'll probably be morning/afternoon by the time anyone sees this, if ever).
