delara, interrupted

I don't think I have ever laughed so hard during a game of Taboo! We were all rolling on the floor at Lacey's last night having a BLAST playing it. Topping the list was Andre's clue about Pinocchio: he said very slowly and with a lot of intention, "...and it gets bigger..." and we all just erupted in laughter. Probably (definitely) one of those you-had-to-be-there moments, but it was *priceless* to say the least. Then it was P-Air's turn: the clue was, "it's made up of lots of cells..." to which P-Air guessed, "Al Qaeda?" Again, laughing convulsions on the floor for us all. Finally, Andre had us all laughing hard with his rendition of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker theme, hummed in a high-pitched voice. Amazing but not so graceful.

During a round of clues I was giving, I was amused by the number of words that related to my upcoming trip to Hawaii, and I capitalized on the opportunity to rub it in. (Haha - not really.) I ruthlessly gave clues for ukulele, sunburn, postcard, and one other that I am forgetting at the moment - these rounded out a set of 8 clues that my team got. I think we won by like 542 points. Woo hoo! Ok, well, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration, but with Nas, Lacey, Charla, George, Greg, and I on a team how could we NOT have ruled the world?!??

Props to Paulie, P-Air, Andre, Schweitz, Vad, and Myk for being worthy opponents. Good times, good times.
