all in a game

Blogged under Uncategorized on Monday 22 January 2007 at 4:27 pm

a “friend” and i went to park city yesterday for sundance. while we were there we dropped by pmk’s house for some essentials: clean bathrooms and coffee laced with large quantities of alcohol. i noticed a monopoly game set up in the corner, but didn’t pay any attention to what version it was. i just assumed everyone plays my favorite one, the here & now edition. it’s totally cute and totally commercial with game pieces including a prius, RAZR phone and most importantly a starbucks cup!
but, noooooo…
as my friend pointed out on the way home, they were playing the national park version. sometimes i forget living in park city requires you to enjoy the outdoors even while you’re indoors.

    I would have been very excited to see the national park edition. Then again, I’m a bit of an outdoors geek. Could we ever be friends Ms. Bellum?

    Do you like the outdoors?

    You know….it’s hard work brainwashing your kids to be little liberals. At least they will offset some of the neo-con tykes pumped out in droves around here.

    big dave: i’m proud of my yuppy-ness.

    lincoln: wait, we’re not friends now? i had no idea. rude.

    enter clever name here: sometimes, as long as the outdoors likes me. i don’t like the cold, but i love being outside in the summer. camping is a must.

    pmk:i’m sure it’s a tough job, but someone has to do it. you and mrs. pmk are just the right folks for the job.
