me and games don't mix.

so i've never really been a game person.
not much for video games {with the exception of mario kart...sometimes}
don't enjoy board games {except maybe clue}
not a real fan of card games.

i just never really had a thing for games.
but with the mom i have
{and the dad she had}
i have to play,
mostly card games,
even if i don't enjoy it.
i think i get it from my dad.
he doesn't play much either.

it's probably more because i hate losing.
and i've never been a real strategical person.
so...
 not being good at + not being strategical = losing
which makes me bitter.. hahaha
and i hate to admit but yes, i am kind of a sore loser, for a moment or two.

one time my mom made us play a card game for family night
and i was not shy about expressing that i didn't want to play.
she said that this would be about "learning to pretend to have fun"
that's hard hahaha.

so when my good friend cole morgan invited me
and addison
over for games
you can imagine how i felt.
but addison wanted to go so i tagged along.

you see cole and his family are pretty big gamers.
they have legit game nights, i'm pretty sure.
so we get out this game
called 5 crowns.
i don't know if you have played it
but it's similar to phase 10...if you have played that
{and phase 10 i loath... }
anyways, we have a practice round
and even from the practice round i get sassy.
it bothers me when people tell me how to play
even though i just ask for help the whole time.
and i know it's dumb of me, which is why i avoid playing..
haha but really it's not that bad and it all ends up being a joke.
but i got through all 12 rounds of that game
and didn't even get last place!

i told cole the story about my family night
and he told me i didn't do the best job of pretending to have fun.
but hey. i did it. haha

i think it's great if you like games.
i just don't all that much.
maybe one day i will.
but not today.


even though i don't enjoy games,
i will still play them
and
i do enjoy being with friends,
so the night was still a good one!
