Good Times

[tcepsa]

Yesterday was awesome. Dispelled two shadows that had been bugging me at the back of my brain. Got a copy of Dracula (I figure it's high time I read it!) illustrated by Edward Gorey (they guy who did The Gashleycrumb Tinies and the opening animation for the PBS show Mystery). I'm to chapter 3, and so far it's awesome ^_^ Played bridge--didn't do nearly as well this time as last time (in my opinion) but for one thing I felt like I got harder hands to bid and play, and for another I tried not to ask for bidding advice/interpretation (which ended up getting us in trouble at least once... oops!) On the plus side I actually tried with some success to keep track of cards as they were played, and I'm pretty sure that on at least one occasion it helped me. Also had some very good conversations, which is always fun :) Switching topics before I put the rest of you to sleep... Another shadow came up last night at the end of the evening. That one might end up lingering for awhile, but we talked about it a lot and it's getting better as well, and it's something that will dissipate with time. All in all, yesterday was definitely a good day ^_^

*laugh* Thanks for the reassurance (yay more warm fuzzies from yesterday ^_^) and the heads-up. As long as everyone was having fun; that's what matters most to me. (Well, that and winning at all costs!! O;)

Spades sounds great, though I'm going to have to re-learn how to play. I seem to recall it being similar to Bridge, Hearts, and 500, but that's about all I can remember. Oh, and that whoever has the 2 of Clubs starts. That's about it right now, but I'm sure with a little review, a lot of it will come back to me. :)
