Patty and Jane invited us down to play a new game this afternoon with Sandra called Sousand (say "thousand" with a German accent). Sandra taught us and it has snowballed. The game is played with 5 dice. You count points depending on the roll of all or some of the dice, and if certain numbers don’t come up on the roll, you “bone”. Although, we suspicion she was making up rules as we went along, we still had fun, I even understand a tournament is in the works! =) Anyway, even after she abandoned us to do some frivolous things (like pack!), we continued to play. At one point I had so many bones it looked like I had eaten a double order of wings at Hooters!
We finally broke to meet and watch the sunset off the dock. It’s been a breezy, cloudy and cool – with no breaks in the clouds, so we haven’t seen the sun all day. We weren’t sure there would be much of a sunset, but just as we got out there, the clouds parted a little bit and we had a beautiful sunset!
Since tonight is Sandra’s last night in Belize Southern Illinois . Ellen was minding her own business, intending to eat alone, but Sandra would have no part of that! So Ellen was sucked in, hook, line and sinker! And she bravely held her own! I hope we meet up with her again!
Our conversation at dinner was all over the board, and believe it or not, the following phrases and words were actually spoken and discussed (in no particular order) during dinner: Mercedes Rojas - Masked Mexican Wrestler, Fire Up, Dr. Shellnut – Sex Therapist, Hurricane Sandra, Creeping up on you like Indian Underpants (this phrase was also used several times during the earlier game of Sousand), Ripping the Monkey, Trimming the Hedges, Beaver-tailed, Piercing the Noodle, Stroke Stab and Retreat. Use your imagination. It will serve you well in this situation! Needless to say, we will never be the same after Sandra is gone!
Poor Gerald. (yes, go ahead and feel sorry for him) He has been the only male around since Bobby left. He really misses Bobby and can’t wait until Bob gets here for some male companionship. We think he might be getting estrogen poisoning!
We end the evening with a dip in the hot-tub…well, actually it was a cold-tub, and then a warm-tub, then it finally turned into a hot-tub! by that time, we were definitely waterlogged. But it felt pretty good, and made us sleepy, and since I didn’t get a nap in today (awww) we’re hitting the hay!
Till tomorrow – g’night!
