Deal Me In

A while back, I posted about being held hostage. See, that article was about...well I don't want to go into too much detail in case you haven't had a chance to read it yet (hint hint). Suffice it to say it was about being in a situation you'd rather not be in. Maybe you've been super fortunate not to have found yourself in a situation like that...until now. And who is your hostage taker? Say hello to COVID-19...UGH! 

This virus has spread so rapidly and doesn't discriminate - everyone is a potential victim or carrier/transmitter. The best way to slow down what has become a pandemic is to limit exposure. To what? Well basically PEOPLE! Schools are closed, most businesses are closed - unless they are essential (hospitals, supermarkets, pharmacies...) restaurants are open but only for takeout or delivery. No movie theater, no malls, no parties. WE are basically on restriction! House arrest without the ankle monitors...

If you're married/partnered - ok so maybe the stuckathomeness isn't so terrible.
If you're married/partnered/single with children - welllllll...
If you're single single - then this whole thing has made you creative. 


Oooh you're so naughty! LOL Well, before you get carried away, I was talking about entertainment. Tonight, I am playing a card game. It's actually a party game, best played with, well a party, but with these new restrictions in place, I'm playing by myself. Hmm, kinda reminds me of my childhood...

Anywho...

So there's deck of cards that gives you a prompt/question. You are supposed to choose a response from the cards you were dealt. Since it's just me, I picked a prompt/question card and then randomly select response cards. Oooh some of these are just horrible - horrible and FUNNY. Imagine if you drew a card with a prompt that read something like:

                Prompt: A wonderfully romantic date wouldn't be complete                                            without___________
                 Response: Farting loudly at the table

LMAO!!! This game's hysterical! Even the rules are a riot! The prompts and response choices are just wrong in some cases. So players beware.

If you'd like to know the name of the game - or think you already know - or maybe you already have it because you're just as weird/goofy as I am, then drop me a line.

Oscar Chronicles - All By Myself

  Hola, mis amigos. I'm not going to ask if you missed me because - well, I already know you did. But more than that, I'm not going to ask because I'm sad, angry and hungry. Okay, perhaps I'm always interested in some snacks...Anyway, your Oscar is sad. Why? Is because a couple of weeks ago mi persona favorito decided to remodel his room. No really! He took all of the things out of the room - even my bed! At first I was angry thinking that he was kicking me out! He even took down his posters and emptied his closet! But then I started seeing him bringing some stuff back. Several pairs of his zapatos, some shirts and chaquetas. Some things he even put in the basura! Things that were too small or too old - you know how they do, right? So yes,  A MAJOR CLEANING. His room was like SUPER CLEAN.  He and his Papa also bought in new stuff. New zapatos, shirts, pants. The new stuff he put into a new bag. Nice! Good storage. It even has wheels!! So he can move it around a lot easi...
Well, Super Bowl 50 is in the books, folks. Congrats to Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos.  The game was alright but I was really waiting around for the commercials! Here are a few of my faves: Oh and there's this one from PETA touting the benefits of being a vegan..but it's a little, well, let's just say at LEAST PG-13. I don't think it aired during the super bowl. Actually, I thnk it was banned for being too racy . Wanna see? You will have to check that one out for yourself (smile)

Who are you? - Tra

I’m admittedly curious about, well, quite a few things. But perhaps I am the most interested in people. Why they do the things they do…their likes, dislikes, dreams and aspirations. Sooooooo I figured, why not ask a few people a few things about themselves. I’m going to try to convince , cajole, coerce ,  beg , ask a few people to take a few minutes to talk about their favorite subject - THEMSELVES. This is the first in what I hope will be many entries in the series   WHO ARE YOU? My first victim , guinea pig, test subject, guest is Tra.   I had the pleasure of interviewing him this afternoon. Here’s what he had to say: Mackgurl: Tra,thank you for agreeing to chat with me today. Tra: My pleasure. Mackgurl: Okay so no pressure just a few questions to help us learn about you. Ready? Tra: Ready Mackgurl: Great! First question. - What do you do? And by that I mean, for a living? Tra: I sell Kirby vacuums. Mackgurl: A salesman! Very nice! How...
