The Friday Fling Plays Indoor Games!

Friday Fling #267 for January 17th 2014

 

Now that we’re a week away from the dead middle of winter,

most of us are spending a lot more time indoors.

And a lot of us spend some leisure time playing games.

Board games. Card games. Games of chance. Video games. And such.

That is our theme this week:

write something about a favorite indoor game or games.

Ahem yes even games people play.

No particular format recommended this week,

although if you want to take this opportunity

to try a Twaddle

and write amusingly about your favorite indoor game(s)

that would be fine.

This was a new format invented this week:

twelve lines,

ABAB rhyme,

descending number of syllables from 12 to 1 in each line,

with some sort of refrain used to break up the 12 lines into three stanzas.

Not easy, but a fun additional challenge if you are so inclined.

 

Be sure to save some time to read and comment gamely

on your fellow Pals’ gamesmanship writes.

Then go enjoy a weekend, perhaps with an indoor game or two.

But just be sure to shower or bathe first

so other player(s) do not find you gamey!

    About a different sort of social games, but a well-known popular song from the end of the Sixties.

    JENNY LINN LOVES TO WIN

    my youngest daughter Jenny is a gaming wiz,
    whether played on a board, with cards or a screen.
    Winning is what she loves, yes it is.
    She’s enjoyed games since she was a teen.

    Jenny Linn the gameloving queen
    As good at games as you’ve ever seen.

    She started on card games and board games
    playing against family.
    We still recall their names
    So does Billy.

    Jenny Linn the gameloving queen
    As good at games as you’ve ever seen.

    Too bad they
    both can’t
    win.

    BOARD GAMES

    On a cold day
    With nothin to do but twiddle thumbs
    Try a board game are two
    Will so be fun
    And will not leave you bore
    Will maybe if your losein at the game
    Checkers in any form
    Comes in handy
    When you know the rules
    Darts are even fun
    Just dont dart

    Now thats the game for me
    Sweet sweet candy land will leave you happy with no pain
