Had a couple of my daughter's friends over last night for homemade pizza and then we played "Beyond Balderdash". If you haven't ever played this game you need to. The basic object is to write persuasive definitions that you think other people will choose. For example, everyone writes a definition for the word "carfax", including the person who has the real definition on cards included in the game. Then the person with the real definition reads all of them together and you have to pick which one you think is the real one; and you get points if someone thinks yours is the real one. Each time you change words, you change who will be reading, so everyone gets a fair chance to play and earn points. If no one guesses the real definition, the reader gets three points. It is a really fun game. By the way "carfax" means a place where four roads meet. Anyway, we had alot of fun with this game. One word that stuck with me is the word "pandiculate" which means to yawn and stretch.
Let me leave you with one. What is the definition for the word "itcheboo"? Let me know if you find out.
Oh well, that's about all for today. I am feeling the need to pandiculate, so I better go. Until next time....

When is the last time you pandiculated?

itcheboo is when you suddenly get an 'itch' in a large group setting that you didn't expect - it's as if you're sitting there in normal surroundings, enjoying the moment, then suddenly an 'itch' sneaks up and yells 'boo' and you must scratch the itch - most annoying when it's on your back and you can't reach it...then you must do the 'scratchaitch' with the back of the chair
Very Funny!!
