Well, no. Not that kind.
.

.
But this type could be amusing.
.

.
I live for crazy, off beat adult games.
.

.
Whaaaat!!
.

.
You get a giant red crab claw free with purchase?
.

.
I am so buying this.

Because it’s been a long week and I need a chuckle.
.

I’d like to tell you there’s something wonderfully quirky up there like a hedgehog cheese grater…
.

.
Or sandwich bags that lessen the chances of your kid getting beaten up for their PB&J….
.

.
But alas, when I climbed up on a chair and checked?
.

.
All I saw was this:
.

.
A lone fly swatter the husband must have thrown up there when I wasn’t looking.
Handy if Mike Pence drops by, but otherwise not very amusing.
So regale me with your finds…
What’s collecting dust in your kitchen?
.
.

.
James Taylor.
How wonderful is that!
Yes, I could easily ride out the Covid crisis with James.
.
.
He was the soundtrack of my youth.
.
.
My early married life.
.
.
And his music still speaks to me today.
.
.
Welcome James, pull up a chair and have a cuppa…
.
.
Because my knee still hurts and I’m bored.
.

Mine are as follows:
🍸 🙄 😉 🍷 😳 😈
It shouldn’t surprise anyone that martini holds the top spot, with eye roll right behind.
That’s where I live.

Are you ready for 2020 to be over?
I know I am.
So let’s look ahead to 2021 and see what’s in store.
.

.
I hope you have better future plans than mine.
The first three words I saw?
Crabs, pussy and butter.
Uh oh.

If you have predictive text on your cell phone, grab it and let’s play.
Remember The Princess Bride movie?
No, I don’t either. But apparently there’s a quotable line from the film that goes like this….

So a Facebook friend of mine tagged me to play the 2020 version.
Start texting My name is…..
You killed my….
Prepare to….
And let predictive text do the rest.
My results:
My name is not the big barn. ( seriously, that’s what I got! )
You killed my husband and he didn’t even know. ( it’s true he’s not very observant, but still. )
Prepare to be a little more than the kale. ( I seriously hope I’m a lot more than that foul weed. )
Not kidding, that’s what it said.

Apparently my iPhone is freakishly tuned in to my life.
Which if I stopped laughing, might make me a little worried.

Next up in my continuing series on the absolutely crazy things people will pay money for Maine Adult Education is…. LEGOS.
Yes, LEGOS.
Those annoying little plastic toy pieces we’ve all stepped on and paid the price.

And while there have been some other ridiculous classes…
You’re never too old to learn…. Spoons.
You’re never to old to learn…. Potatoes.
You’re never too old to learn…. Ukulele
You’re never too old to learn…. Chakra Toning.
You’re never too old to learn…. Mindfulness.
You’re never to old to learn…. Tin Cans.
You’re never too old to learn…. Knotweed Flutes.
You’re never too old to learn… Succulent Picture Frame.
This one, and it’s how the hell can we make this nonsense sound like a legitimate college course description really made me laugh.

Oh, it’s a facilitated process? Well, that explains everything.
And they use specially selected LEGO elements! Wow.
Does that mean the red ones… or the green?
The group discussion would be interesting to hear. Problem solving and decision making? Give me a break… exactly what wisdom will you gain?

Okay, there’s that.
But hey, you’ll be utilizing kinesthetic skills and will be required to learn and listen.
This is Serious Play!
Taught by a Serious Play facilitator!

Of course when I was young, the people who took LEGOS seriously usually ended up like this….

But maybe times have changed.
