Spottings and Sightings

So other than doctors that are spending their weekend at Mayo Clinic functions being obsessed with trying to make me laugh....
I did too many invoices but I did find the time to look up Toys R Us. Recent events have led to the reevaluation of our entertainments. I heard the "b" word from his mouth, board games. Without going into detail- games were drama apparently in his family. In mine, drama only occured between the sometimes not-so-friendly competitive-ness between my neice and I. Mostly occuring on the Monopoly front. So I should include here that I love the game, but all of the sessions took hours and we never finished a single one. I've had shorter chess games than Monopoly.

While I was looking, I spotted this furry figure- my husband will recognize it from fond times down at Orlando Fashion Square Mall kiosks.

I was able to hunt down the most common of my favorite card/board games:
Uno: 6.99
Monopoly: 9.99
Scrabble 9.99

I always wanted to try Rook (6.99), my parents had a set, but they would never teach me how to play. They said it was an adult game like Poker and tried to cast a light on it that it wasn't a good game for little girls, or improper or some hoo-hah.

I've heard good things about Apples to Apples (24.99) but it seems more of a multiple person game.

I also found Trivial Pursuit 6 (14.97), which I would hopefully be better at since the old edition back home I always hated because the questions were for way before I was even born.
