Recently, I have mostly been playing games at http://www.americangirl.com

Benedict was distressed at the fact that the games are behind a link marked 'fun for girls'; "I probably would enjoy those games, but I'm not allowed, because I'm not a girl". I pointed out that I'm not exactly a girl either, and he could safely ignore it, and then he got annoyed "but that's just sexism, isn't it?" Well, yes, it is, but that doens't mean you should give in to it. Maybe we should send them an email; they do market mostly to girls, but they'd only need to delete a couple of words.

Anyway, go play, they have good games, including a mancala variant which I can actually win about 50% of the time, and Spit as previously mentioned, and a market game in both English and Spanish, and... bunch of stuff.

(That's Benedict's doll in the picture; he doesn't like to play with her any more, but sometimes she pesters him for stories so much he gives in. He's nice like that.)

You Are 83% Non Conformist



You're incredibly strange. And a weirdness like yours takes skill to cultivate!

No one really understands you. And you're cool with that. You just hope you never have to understand them!



I'm not at all sure I'd agree with that; but as my Jon calls me cleopatric (age cannot wither me nor custom stale my infinite variety...I make hungry where most I satisfy) and my Benedict described me as 'Never guessable', perhaps it's just because I'm used to me.

Colin seems to cope, anyway. (Two and a half hours to go on my Kirsten doll...)
