'Virtual' Date Night...In A Word!


         Hubby and I have been spending some of our Friday 'date night' time playing Scrabble...*yawn*...I know. We're sooooo interesting! LOL You just don't know 'how' interesting!...We're so interesting that we wanted to share our board from last week with you! ^_^
      Well, as it ended up, "I" wanted to share the board! :-)) Things didn't turn out as hubby thought they would when we got started!...Here's what I mean...


       He wanted a "re-do over" from the game that we played the week before...where I beat him unmercifully! ^_^ {No worries though, we still love each other....Scrabble lumps and all! LOL} So......we played. :-/
         He was soooooooo sure he was gonna beat my socks off this time!! But I was soooooo sure.....Okay. I was a little worried. He was so determined this time!! O_O


        He felt that maybe I had taken undue advantage of him in games past....me being the 'Word Queen' and all! ^_^ ...And maybe I did!...*twirling the corner of my moustache......O_O Oops! I might've given you too much information there...I don't 'REALLY' have a moustache!...*Hormones! Grrrr!* So he was sure this match would be "fairer" now that he was completely awake and not exhausted after a long day of work!...


        So, instead of a "movie"...


       ...or taking a "taxi" out to the airport so that we could go on some trip or the other for the weekend... 


        ...we played a game of Scrabble...intensely!...And in between waiting times, when the brains of the other one was smoking from all that pondering and thinking, we sang to each other...one "ditty" after the other! LOL
        But in the end this game ended like all the other ones we've played...except for one. {He beat me so bad that time that I had a twitch for a week!! LOL}...


       Hubby pulled ahead.....I caught up.....and moved on down the road, until all he could see was the back of me in his "rear" view Scrabble mirror! ^_^ ...I killed him! LOL And I left him with a word...


      ..."urn"...because even those Scrabble-y killed should have somewhere nice to spend their time! LOL
        And the score when it was all said and done?!...



      237........to 343. I won.......He was a very good sport......and we live to play again!! ^_^ And Oh Yes! There will be an 'AGAIN'!...He's nothing if not persistent!! That's why I love him! LOL...One of these days he's gonna get me!!!...*wink! wink!*...And WOW! The 2012 National Scrabble Championship will take place on August 11-15 in Orlando Florida!...Hmmm...maybe we better plan another 'virtual' trip! ^_^ Our 30th wedding anniversary "is" coming up! :-)

"You Are The Best Decorator Ever!".......NOT!


          Mrs. Wug: Honey, I know you consider yourself to be a 'jack-of-all-trades' and everything, but really...I think you should leave the decorating to me!

Mr. Wug: What are you try to say? I think I'm a pretty good decorator!

          Mrs. Wug:  Uhhhhh...I've seen your work. Trust me...it's not 'all that'. It's not even 'half of that'! Ha! Ha!

Mr. Wug: You think you're funny! But REALLY...I think I'm a pretty good decorator!

          Mrs. Wug: Okay...let's put it to the test. You know all of that old furniture that's just sitting in that room gathering dust? You put it in some sort of arrangement that people might wanna actually sit on.

Mr. Wug:  Okay...I'll make a nice cozy nook that'll be saying: "Come! Sit...relax, with some tea and a bowl of popcorn!" :-)

          Mrs. Wug: I can't wait to see this! :-)) ...Start with the corner that has the love seat and the chairs...

Mr. Wug: No problem!....Well, it's a little crowded now. So, I'm gonna take out a couple of chairs...

         ...and I'm gonna have these two chairs pointing toward the couch...

              
            Mrs. Wug: Uhhh...number one, you can't get to the love seat.....and number two, where are the people's legs gonna go?! O_O

Mr. Wug: Well, the chairs have wheels and they can move...


          Mrs. Wug: Oh! So we just have to tell any visitors we get that they just need to take a course in how to 'wheel' a chair before they come to visit...done! LOL 

Mr. Wug: They don't need a course. Just a couple of simple instructions! ^_^ ...But I had another option. I could've put them like this!...

         ...Or like this!...



          Mrs. Wug: What's with the fan?!....And do we live in a movie theater?! O_O There's no big screen in front of there! Why would people be sitting like that, all bunched up, staring in the same direction...and not looking at, and talking to, each other?! O_0

Mr. Wug: I was trying to give them the atmosphere of riding on a bus!

          Mrs. Wug: Riding on a bus...while they're sitting in a living room?!

Mr. Wug:.....(pause).....Yes!

          Mrs. Wug: Uh huh!....That don't make sense...and you know it!!....Mr. Decorator!...*shaking my head*...LOL...What about the other side of the room?!...

         ...Everything is all 'willy-nilly' in there!

Mr. Wug: Oh yeah! I can see how this part of the room needs tightening up! There's too much stuff in there...


         ....Now that's better....I just gotta get headless Tina out of there...


        .....BAM!...There you go! :-)


          Mrs. Wug: You know what?!....I like it! :-) You actually made that old furniture and stuff look good enough to wanna sit around on!...That'll be a great place for you and your buddies to go now! :-)

Mr. Wug: Great!...High five! :-)

          Mrs. Wug: *High fived him*.....But just so you know....I still think your decorating skills need some...as you say...'tightening up'! LOL

Mr. Wug: Whatever! ^_^
