Games, you should play more

Now and then I'll get this voice in my head that tells me to write something. I'm not really sure why. I mean, I talk to the AG about pretty much everything in my life so it's not like I'm keeping anything in that needs to get out or whatnot. And anything that doesn't come up with her comes up with the cousins. Not that there's anything I won't talk to her about, she just doesn't share the same love of Futurama and video games with me as I do with them. Ah video games, truly a wonderful thing. I'm actually quite convinced that if more people played video games together then better friendships would be had. And I don't mean playing across the internet with somebody you've never heard of, or even somebody you know. Just not the same. I mean being in the same room as your friends and laughing with them as a bomb-omb bounces off of one players shield and hits a totally unintentional target, knocking them off the playing field. I am of course talking about Super Smash Bros, and this did actually happen, we still talk about it. Actually spent a few minutes playing SSB and Mario Kart on my lappy with Dance Partner B. AG was Dance Partner A, which is why you'll hear me refer to her as either my girlfriend, my best friend, or my old dance partner, but Dance Partner B was around at the same time as her, back in that brief period where I had two partners. Actually I suppose I had two partners when DPC was around, but not really the same as I was only her partner on the grounds that it didn't interfere with DBA/AG/BFF(which of course stands for bear fromm froshed). She was alright, just rather young, in that annoying teenage girl stage. Man, where was I going with this? Right, video games with DPB, t'was good times. Naturally being a girl she was terrible, but it was cool playing with her and she's intent on making it a semi-weekly basis. Our relationship has been kind of odd in my mind. We were always slightly friends ever since we were partnered back in the day, but never the kind of people who would actually hang out together. Only this term we've started doing that, brought on by having a similar schedule with similar breaks on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It's fun hanging out with her but she's got some strange traits. What I find the strangest is that she has no problem talking about the details of her sex life with me, but can't say the word "penis" in public. Although, I guess that is adorably hilarious.

Now that I think about it, video games are great, but my message of "play more games" can really be extended to pretty much any game. Definitely wouldn't be as close with my cousins if it wasn't for games day. Started playing charades with our own words. Was rather impressive that Gamer Cousin was able to get Nibblonian in three guesses. So, basically, play more games with friends, or random people, basically everyone. Gaming makes for better relationships. Man, I haven't played Settlers in forever.
