Sour Grapes

Yeah, I'm prepared for all of you to call me a sore loser.

We "celebrated" Leap Day by (GASP!) actually going out on a Friday night with Mitzi and Betsy, instead of staying in and playing GH or crafting...We played trivia at one of the Johnny's. I thought since it was a Friday night the place would be packed, but it was fairly quiet, only about seven teams playing, and there weren't a bunch of non-playing Loudy Loudersons like there always are a Tanners.

It's so much easier when you can hear the DJ's questions and you can hear the sound clips. Under the team name Adam and Eves, we hung right around second place most of the night. We did so with no internet on our phones and no laptop, and there were only four of us.

The winning team had about 15 people on it (much easier with the larger teams - more brains to mine for useless knowledge). BUT, they also had a guy who brought a freaking laptop so that they could look up the answers. They were Googling almost everything. What fun is that? Our team didn't have a chance against that, but we hung in pretty close most of the game.

Next week is the semi - finals. All these teams who have qualified by cheating for the last 10 weeks will be screwed when they get to the semis, because you can't take any sort of electronic device in with you. Bets decided that maybe the DJs encourage cheating in the early rounds so that the not-so-smart teams get weeded out right away in the semis. Could be.

I think we've already qualified as Adam and Eves at the Tanners location, so I need to check the website and find out. The winner of the whole she-bang gets a $1000 prize.
