Thursday Three

Ready. Set. Go.

1. Baby showers can never occur with at least one strange game. Gotta love them for it. Saturday I attended a baby shower for a friend from church and everyone oohhed and ahhhed over the cute baby boy clothes. We had two games. The first involved plastic babies frozen in ice cubes, whoever “breaks their water” first wins. The second game involved never saying the word “baby” and collecting safety pins from the people who do say it. In case you were wondering, I totally dominated in the second game and no one even saw it coming. 

2. Oscar season is in full-swing. With the official awards ceremony on Sunday, we are watching a few movies so we can feel cultured and opinionated when they announce the winners. Last night we watched Captain Phillips which equated to two hours of hugging the pillow and trying to pretend it wasn’t totally stressful.

3. Let me just go ahead and put you in a box since we all love that so much. Tonight I joined a friend for some sort of networking event that revolved around a personality test. As someone who has an unhealthy obsession with personality tests, I can easily say it was the most ridiculous one I’ve done. But the “presentation” of someone reading straight from a book likely added to my thoughts on it. Ready for the test? Pick the card that you most relate to. Yep, that’s it. Now you understand about your color and know everything there is to know about you. Unfortunately, if you don’t relate to mimes, I don’t really know what to tell you.
