I don't know. What sort of game is it? Does it entail something with seafood? I won't do anything with seafood! And I don't want to be stared at by dead fish either! >_<

lol. So to speak.

Never played Go Fish, Mari?! Its really simple. Each person gets seven cards, if you have a pair then you place it down. Then once you place your pairs down (if you have any), each person asks someone if they have a certain card, if you have that card you have to give it to the person, if you dont you tell the person "Go Fish", and they pick a card from the pile. If you happen to get the card you were asking for from the pile then you say "Fish my wish", and go again

The first person to have all of their cards in a pair wins! Its really simple. I havent played in forever though...

**Mari** · 11-02-2008, 04:59 PM

Hmm, I know a similar game. Only those are played with 4 kids in a series rather than 2.

We also have another game similar to this one, only it has 1 card extra. If you are the last one to hold that card in your hand, you have to do an assignment. (In this case you don't ask for a certain card, you have to draw one from the hand of another player)

Okay, I like that. I'll play

shesabrandybuck · 11-02-2008, 05:04 PM

the game you just described sounds similar to a game called Old Maid. I guess all card games derives from each other...?

In the meantime I'll go bake some sugar cookies while waiting for the teacup to fill up

**Mari** · 11-02-2008, 05:09 PM

Haha, well, I think I'll be gone by the time you come back. It's late here you know?

Good night Link!

shesabrandybuck · 11-02-2008, 05:12 PM

Night Mari

I'm back and forth.

sisterandcousinandaunt · 11-02-2008, 05:41 PM

We could play solitare. That way, we just leave it on the table when we go out.

shesabrandybuck · 11-02-2008, 05:51 PM

funny thing is...I dont even really know how to play solitare...
*hides head*

The last sane person · 11-02-2008, 06:01 PM

I took Katt fishing. She really needs to practice casting.

Pity the weather turned to such shite, though. I guess that gives me more of an excuse to go and get a better reel and try some stuff out. Fishing is always more fun with a friend. And a dog.

But blimey, rustling up seven veils is a challenge!

I'm so bored and no one here to entertain me *sigh*

Learn solitaire. Do you have a deck of cards?

shesabrandybuck · 11-02-2008, 07:30 PM

Sis! I'm so happy to see someone! *puts down wii wheel*
I do have a deck of cards, actually

sisterandcousinandaunt · 11-02-2008, 07:38 PM

So, shuffle them. Or talk to me. Or both.

shesabrandybuck · 11-02-2008, 07:45 PM

I dont know about the shuffling...once I start shuffling cards, I dont want to stop, its like a bad habit or something. Haha, I really am strange person

What are you up to, sis?

The last sane person · 11-02-2008, 07:55 PM

Arg, noth my dogs are injured. My Foo dog got windex in his eye, and Hapoo took a tumble down the stairs and hurt her leg. So they are both resting on a big pile of cushions and pillows with bandages and the big cone head collars. Its so sad, and yet so funny.

shesabrandybuck · 11-02-2008, 07:58 PM

Aww poor things! This reminds me of that old Disney movie, The Fox and the Hound, where the dog's leg was injured and he was resting on a thing of pillows...

katya · 11-02-2008, 08:12 PM

Don't learn solitaire, Link, it's just a time waster. Unless you're Brian Eno, that is.

I want to be the wandering sailor
We're silhouettes by the light of the moon
I sit playing solitaire by the window
Just waiting seasons change, ah, ah
You'll see, one day, these dreams will pull you through my door
And i'll come running to tie your shoe...
I'll come running to tie your shoe.....

shesabrandybuck · 11-02-2008, 08:26 PM

Who is Brian Eno?
