Mr. Foxworthy would be proud.
If your idea of a hot date involves Advanced Civilization and a case of Jolt, you are probably reading the right blog.
Great list!
That was fun.
Great post, Mary!
Oh yeah, that's me. I have an emergency box of party games in the car, but no first aid kit. My coffee table is so big it can fit 8 players comfortably, but it's very inconvenient to use it for coffee. As for turning down a date to go gaming - why would you date a non-gamer? And I'm looking forward to my tax return!
If your 3-year-old knows what a DVONN is, you might be a gamer.
If your seven-year-old beats you at YINSH you both might be gamers.
