Cameos and Hummdingers...

Today was Sunday and the most productive thing I did all day was win a game of Cranium. If you've never played Cranium, you really should. It really is so fun. Cranium tests your skills on several levels, including humming, acting, spelling and clay molding. My favorite category is Star Performer. Star Performer is the category where you have to act something out, kind of like charades. I also like the straight up trivia questions, except tonight I was really mad about a question my team got asking us the definition of "Boreal". One of the answer options was "a term regarding the north." Another option was "a reflection of light." I was really excited we got this question because I thought I knew the answer. I knew about the Aurora Borealis Effect, which is a crazy thing that happens when small particles on the earth interact with our planets magnetic field and the sky lights up with all these awesome colors. So instinctively I chose the answer B: a reflection of light. Well....I was wrong. The answer that was listed as correct was A) a term regarding the north. I immediately rebuffed. This question should be thrown out, it is completely misleading. Both of those answers could realistically be correct. I really am tempted to write an email to the Cranium people regarding this question. Seriously. Although my team missed that stupid Boreal question, we did persevere and come out victorious in the long run.

In other weekend news, I dyed my hair a chocolate velvet color. Well, thats what the box said but its pretty much black. I also bought a cool new wireless mouse and the Kanye West album. Another weekend not totally wasted...

Um...I've noticed no one is leaving comments except for...ME. Is anyone reading this blog?

Cranium is fun. But, Continental is better. Oh, way better.
