I Got The Monopoly Fever
Been playing an old-school board game Monopoly (not for the PC) with my mother San_San earlier this afternoon since it’s been a long time for the both of us. San_San chose Dog as her game piece because she gets the Dog just about every game on Monopoly, and I went for the Shoe as my game piece. We have been collecting various property assets in hopes of getting a Monopoly, buying houses and hotels, and paying rent money to each other for about an hour. But in the end, I am the winning champion of Monopoly because San_San was on St. James Place and she rolled 7 on the dice and then landed on my red-colored property Indiana Avenue for the third time which she owed me $1,050 for rent with a hotel on the property but she declared bankruptcy because she didn’t have enough money to pay me after she sold her houses and mortgaged all of her properties.
Then I get to put the Monopoly game away as part of my great victory. It sure was fun playing that game. 🙂 Maybe next time we play Monopoly we should con my sister Tomala to join us.
Oh, and speaking of, here’s a picture of a ‘Player Bankrupt’ cutscene from Monopoly for the Game Boy Color but I replaced the Monopoly guy’s pants with a pink skirt and the Monopoly guy’s face with a female face with pink hair and ponytail to make it look like San_San’s face:
Yep, it sure was fun being a good thousandaire in this game. 🙂
Thursday Afternoon Open Thread: Movin’ on up!
San_San and I went to go see our friendly family member this afternoon to help move stuff from their old house and shed to their new house and then clean their old house up afterwards. After we got our job done over there, Papa Smurf and I went to a lumber yard and picked up some 2×4 wood so that he can work on them by drilling a few screws in proper positions, saw a few of them in half, etc.
Then after we went home we had some delicious chicken quesadillas for dinner. It was delicious
Either way, it sure was nice to see our friendly elderly family members once again. 🙂 Open thread!
My first airplane ride
San_San (that’s my mom 😉 ), Tomala and I decided to go to the airport because there aren’t any good carnival rides at the fair. All they’ve got at the fair is a couple of music stages that are twenty feet away from each other, some kind of racecar carnival ride, and a trampoline ride where the owners strap the kids on while they’re jumping on the trampoline and doing crazy tricks at the same time. However, Tomala and I did get some cotton candy, and I took a picture of the boats out on the water while we were at the fair:
Anyways, we arrived at the airport and we waited in line for like an hour, so Tomala and I pull out our cameras and we took pictures of airplanes and helicopters while we’re watching them fly by and land safely on the ground. Here’s some pictures of airplanes and helicopters that I took:
After an hour, we’re up next. So we all get on the airplane, and Tomala wants to go sit in the front seat because she wanted to take some footage from her camcorder while San_San and I sit in the back. We could see our house from above. 😀 Here are some more pictures:
So yeah, the ride went well and none of us got airsick, which is good. 😉
