Saturday: ides of March

Happy Ides of March. Nothing went wrong for us today, so that's good.

We started the day by being super lazy. We woke up and read in bed until around 11. Did some chores, played some Warcraft, etc. Then we had dinner with Jess and Clay (from church). We went to a Thai restaurant and it was really good. I had pineapple fried rice. Then we played hand and foot. There were some exciting times...

The fourth (and final) hand just started. The boys are winning by 4000 points, which is pretty much too much for the girls to take back without a miracle. Amanda lays down her cards. Sweet! The girls are off! Jess plays and lays down a lot of cards. When it comes back to Amanda, she lays the rest of her hand and gets into her foot. Poor boys, they still haven't laid any cards down. Jess gets into her foot. Clay tries to lay down but comes up five points short. Amanda finishes! Yay! Well, still probably not enough to win, but fun. Clay looks in his foot. THREE red fives. Oh, maybe the girls can win after all. The points are totaled...The girls win by 500 points! It was an amazing comeback, one for the books.
