    Definitely stopped and bought a pint of Ben and Jerry's Half Baked on the way home...digging into it as I type, yum!

    I hate white chocolate and Oreos! The Oreos thing is weird because I just get freaked out when they get stuck in my teeth! Weird phobia about stuff getting stuck in my teeth and people seeing it and not telling me. BTW...I always tell people if they have stuff in their teeth or stuff on their face. It's common courtesy!

    Totally unrelated: I love mayonnaise sandwiches!

    Brushing your teeth after eating Oreos is just the worst. :s

    I am a short woman with medical problems. I confess that I sometimes get jealous when I read the amount of calories some people can eat while dieting. I have issues sometimes getting proper nutrition on my calorie allotment, which means I really have to plan for any extras I have.

    Most of these are adult games,not kid games. My kid can just happen to play one of them.

    There is a whole world of board games beyond monopoly and other dreck. Target has been carrying more of them lately too!

    I'm surprised (but pleased!) that they're still developing board games for an adult market. Thought the computer gaming industry would have killed that dead, good to know it's still thriving.

    The last time I played an interactive game was a murder mystery thing at a professional dinner years ago. Other than that, just Candy Crush on my phone, lol.

    I agree Kalici! I am jealous often!

    Same here. I am only 5'0". My losing calories is 1,200 and my maintenance is only 1,500 (TDEE; if I input exercise 5 times per week, it is 1,800). :( I get so jealous of taller people who get to eat more.

    I am 5'0" as well. Short jealous people unite!

    Confession: I'm more self-conscious about my ginormous forehead than I am about being morbidly obese. Don't get me wrong, I hate the excess weight and am diligently working on losing it, but...my forehead makes me feel like a freak of nature.

    I'm unhappy. I determined that if I'm busy, I don't notice. I started working 75+ hours a week so I'm always busy and don't have time to think about anything. I don't know where the last 6 years went. They are a blur, and I'm still unhappy.

    me too.

    Not only did I run a half marathon today, I also managed to roller skate at my grandson's birthday party!

    Of course, I made up for that by eating everything I could get my hands on- breakfast, second breakfast, pizza, ice cream, cupcake, steak, the list goes on...

    Tyra banks has a large forehead and she's a (retired) supermodel. You're probably the only one who really notices. If it really bugs you, get some bangs cut.

    I'm from the UK and never heard of them either :)

    Start with episode 1, feel free to skip the gag reels if you only want to learn about the games. Do not recommend watching the Cards Against Humanity episode with children within 1/2 mile of the house.

    I'm sure you're probably right about other people not really noticing much, and I try to tell myself that. Unfortunately, my hairline sits pretty far back and there is a cowlick-y area there, as well, so bangs are not an option for me. Tried regular and side-swept bangs in the past, and it just wasn't happening. Hopefully I'll just come to terms with it at some point. :)

    I am drinking coffee hoping like hell I can finally go to the loo... this new diet and exercise lark has left me... well... heavier than usual :-) I am considering not weighing myself tomorrow until I can "go".

    Have you (or anyone else who hasn't heard of any of the games that we listed) heard of Settlers of Catan? That is like "the gateway game" to these types of games. Most famous one. They have it at Target.

    This modern/new board gaming originated in Germany so it's often called "German-style board games".

    If anyone watched Parks & Rec, Ben's game "The Cones of Dunshire" was a parody/homage of this type of game. Hubby and I almost busted a gut in the finale when his expansion pack was called "punishingly intricate" in a review and he was thrilled. Now not all of these games are punishingly intricate but it was funny if you like this sort of thing. ..... but you probably had to be there >.>

    We're a bit snobby toward stuff like Monopoly and Risk :P


    .... SHUT UP, ME
