Funny Things, And Maybe More!

Well, yesterday, mother, sibling and I went to a book signing of Suzanne Brockman. I think I may've spelled her name wrong, but that's okay. Anyway, it took us an hour or so to get there, and on the way, we played two 'car-games'. One, the Alphabet game, and the other, the License plate game.

The Alphabet Game
The object of the game is to find all of the letters of the alphabet in order on signs, and things like that as you drive. But, the catch is you have to take the letters from the beginging of the word or tag you read it off of. Nor can the object be in the car at the time you need the letter. (*Note* It is unwise to throw varied 'letters' out of the windows to bypass this rule)
Also, you cannot pick an object starting with the letter you are on. Example: You are on the letter 'B' and you see a billboard. You cannot call that letter because the object starts with a 'B', nor can you use 'grass' for 'G'. You must see the actual word on something outside of the car.
If you see a letter that you rarely see in the real world on the outside of your car you may 'Bank' it. If you see a 'Q', and trust me, 'Q's are difficult to find, as are 'W's and 'J's, you can bank it and save it for later. Banking a letter gives you the pleasure of having to skip that letter when you come to it in the Alphabet. Mind you, you can only bank 3 letters, so choose wisely.

The License Plate Game
This game is reletivly simple. Almost every license plate starts with three letters. Each person in the car must think up a phrase with three words, according with the letters. For instance if JFR was the plate, you could say 'Jereality Frickin' Rocks', or something like that. Or ILM, you could say 'I Love Me' or 'I Love Mom', should she be in the car, and you need 'suck-up' points. Very easy game. But, the phrase needs to make sense...if JFR is the tag, you can't say 'Jelly Fridge Rabbit'...That makes no at all....And that's it!

Well, we got Mother's book signed, and then we went clothes shopping with GGR. I got four pairs of jeans, and four shirts. And socks, which I like, oh, and a belt! Yeah for 'Back-To-School' Shopping!
