You scratch my backgammon...

So you know I play a lot of online Backgammon. Like to an obsession. It's nice to get an online opponent that stays with the game, regardless of their win/lose ratio. I have never, never dropped out of a game 'cause it looked like I was going to lose. But the number of people who do! If the first five rolls don't go their way, they will just drop out and start another game. It's like playing with that bratty cousin of ours who would flip the Monopoly board when he started losing!

Then, there is the downside to playing so much. Well, besides the eyestrain and total loss of social skills. I've gotten good. I know most of the right plays for each roll. That makes me a rotten person to play against. And one of my favorite vacation past-times is playing backgammon with my sister. Now I'm just a bore. A pompous, backgammon winning, level 46 vocabulary bore.

Wendy, get practicing! Only 10 months to Puerto Rico! Mom, you could brush up a little too!

This was supposed to start off as interesting.
It didn't. It really didn't.

This was supposed to end sweetly.
More of a soft fart, I suppose.
