Sleeeeepy...

No more games. They make me tired.

Family Home Evening always manages to turn into a 4.5 hour event. It's because after most everyone leaves, I stay behind and play card and board games with my FHE husband and his roommate and friends. I have decided I am so easily talked into anything. If you can give me a good reason....scratch that....ask me to do anything...seriously, anything, and I'll do it if it means avoiding doing more important things. Like homework.

"Chess, stay and play."

"Okay. One game and then I really have to leave."

One game is played.

"I have to go."

"Oh, come on. Just play for a little while more."

"Okay."

I admit to them that I am really easily talked into anything. I play some more.

"I really have to go!"

"But we're just about to play __________."

"Okay."

__________ is played.

"Seriously....I have to go! I've been here for two hours!"

"One more game!"

"Oh, okay."

Before you know it, it's almost midnight. And I have class at 7:30 in the morning.

"Wow! You really can be talked into anything! You want to go running sometime?"

"Wow! You just found the one thing I can't be talked into. I'm going! Good night!"

My roommates will go running with them. I will stay comfortable, cozy, and non-sweaty at home.
