I try not to advertise “other things” here very often – but I’ve been watching this, and have been surprised at just how good it’s been:

www.realitygamemasters.com

It’s a web series, produced by Rob Cesternino (Survivor: Amazon and All Stars) featuring 3 former Survivors and 3 former Big Brother houseguests, playing a game of RISK.

Yes, web videos of people playing a board game. But, like I said, it’s a lot better than the basic premise. So, if you have an interest in any of those things – or if you are just really, really bored, you should check it out. They are on Episode 3 right now – but the videos are short, so it’s easy to catch up!

But what you should *really* check out is our poll! http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/662330.html

Frist?

Haha, hooray!

I've actually played Risk Legacy with some friends and it's quite entertaining. And I watch Table Top on YouTube which is nothing but people playing board games. So I might check this out...

Hurray for the Frist.

I will check out that link as I am a big fan of those former reality show players.
Expecting my daughter and grandson from Texas today so life will be hectic but wonderful!
It's other grandson's birthday today too so I am in the midst of baking his cake.
Squeezing in reading when I can!

Yaaaaaay GR!

Life is looking pretty good, right now. In the fact that it's finally looking like things are calming down. :)

I like feeling positive about things. It's nice. <3

I'm headed to Oklahoma tomorrow for an aunt and uncle's 50th anniversary.

In a small car. With my husband and 3 kids. He gets mad a lot. I'm really dreading this. He likes to either drive or sleep. Both activities he wants silence. We have THREE KIDS. Silence is rather rare.

Though it may be fun once we get there.

I'll be back Sunday night late. I wish I knew when the new topic was going to be due? Monday probably?

I've even thought...why go? But this is the aunt who came to my college graduation. I HAVE to go. I do love them.

Just the journey, ugh!

Portable DVD player? Might help keep the kids quieter. Of course, might make the kids fight about which movie to watch.

I'm so sorry that family traveling is such an ordeal (though it's pretty clear why!!!), and I know this has come up before.

Being bound by guilt on the one side and misery on the other is an awful place to be. :(

Still reading entries; I've got about 50 more to read! Maybe now that LJ has gotten its head out of its butt, I will be able to do so! Two more days of work then I'm on vacation until the end of the month - we are going to Vegas, baby! Anyone in the general vicinity that wants to meet up, we will have a rental car so let me know!

LJ keeps acting up for me. It won't let me log in or won't let me comment or won't let me message. It's been very annoying!

They stole this idea from Will Whedon who has guest actors play current board games. He is now taping his second season

I wouldn't say they stole the idea from Wheaton, people have been filming themselves playing board games way before Table Top came along, he just does it with style and sass. ;)

Ahaha I was about to kvetch about references to reality tv "stars" but then the game of risk entered the equation and I was entirely molified. I might even have to check this out.

Speaking of other things, I wanted to mention that we're about to finally start the third season of LJ Idol inspired [livejournal.com profile] ljshootout, a photography contest along the same lines as LJ Idol. (mandatory small print: this advertising of it here authorized by the Gary. LJ Shootout (tm) is in no way officially connected to LJ Idol (tm))

I give this greenroom the rating of one quirky sea lion you can't quite decide if is cute or not (equivalent to 6/10 in the old system)

And here I though all sea lions were cute.

I'm about halfway through the entries, and that was with a little early reading! Lots of good stuff so far, but finishing is never quick for me.

Yesterday's cycling: sooper-sekritly windy, after calmer weather was promised! Sacramento's weather is so annoying in the Spring-- it's either windless and blazingly hot, or somewhere between 'yikes' and 'windstorm' most of the rest of the time. o_O

My area is forecasted to have up to 100 mph winds and hail later this PM. Crappity-crap! LJ was stupid for me a couple of hours ago. My new son in law just got a decent job offer. Yay! No more temp work! AW

I've finished most of the reading for this week, and would be completely finished if LJ hadn't been such a pain in butt. Lots of good stuff out there this week.

The fluctuating barometric pressure is playing merry hell with my head. And, of course, the spousebeast has the debit card, so I have to wait until he gets home with ibuprofen. Blergh.

LJ has been so wonky the past few days!

My day has been all right. I've jsut a bit stressed out right now which means it's probably time to lay down and watch one of my favorite movies. ;) That will make me feel better.

Sorry you're feeling stressed. I finally gave in this afternoon, popped in 'The Pirates of Penzance' with Kevin Kline and the world DID get a little brighter for a while.

I screwed up the time conversion and thought the poll closed 10am my time today, so I went to my meeting and then rushed back to my laptop and… derp, I still had another twenty four hours. I can math! Sort of. Sometimes…
