Bloggle!


Well, yesterday during my day of boredom I played an online game of boggle.  I LOVE Boggle!!  I love all of those crazy word games like Boggle, Scrabble, Balderdash, Taboo, etc.  I know, I know I am an official dweeb- it's ok if other people tell me that, too, because I have been aware of the fact that I am a nerd ever since I was little.  I have never even tried to deceive myself into thinking that I was cool.  But, I love words and random knowledge.  When I was little, I legitimately loved to read the encyclopedias that we had in the bookshelf by the fireplace.  Maybe this is a little bit too much info about myself, but it is all true.  Anyways- this morning after I finished reading all of my lessons for church today, I started to get excited about playing games tonight.  One of my favorite things to do on Sunday is to play Boggle.  Most people don't like to play with me because I get kind of competitive.  I get kind of competitive about all stupid little board games that I play.  I don't plan on it happening, it just does.  I have always wondered why I get this way when I get to play these games.  I am usually a pretty calm person, at least I think I am.  When I was playing tennis competitively, I got this way as well.  I would get super intensely competitive during the game(not loudly competitive- more like a silent stubbornness), but right when it finished, I was fine.  I am only competitive in things that don't matter.  Big things I tend to be somewhat uncompetitive in.  Maybe there is a huge underlying problem with me.  Maybe I have issues that I don't even want to confront, but all that I know right now is that I am really looking forward to playing Boggle tonight after Sunday dinner. Now I just have to try to convince people to play with me!
