i won!!!

so paul and i have the electronic version of the classic game, battleship. i love hearing the sound of the missile traveling, the pause and then brgggg…awesome. i find myself getting giddy about it. i sunk his submarine first, then he sunk three of mine, i sunk another of his and then another, and another. he sunk the fourth one. darn we were tied…i wanted to win so badly. paul kept asking me if i had a system to my game…should i? i just punch in numbers and hope that i get one. paul has a way of making me crazy. he tells me (of course after i miss one of his ships) that i was really close, then i try to hit every available target around the last target, wasting time, while he gets another ship! frustrating. so, we are tied…he hits mine (mine is a three ship) and i have to find his (two ship). he tells me that i was close to getting his last ship. my next target was a hit! i was woohooin!!! paul was trying to find the direction of my ship, and i hit the other target!!! I WON!!! then i come to find out that while paul was stretching his neck, he looked and saw two of my ships…what a cheater face! anyway, i won and that is all that matters!

I love battleship too. We haven't played it for a while...time to get the game out. One time I played with your Uncle Scott and he had positioned his boat half off the board. I called every number around his ship and it still did not sink. He replied you didn't call "negative one!" That's playing with an engineer!

I gather from the excitement that winning is not a common thing for Ashlee. Susie and I have the same problem with most of the games we play. There is more to the story but I won't tell it here :)

Cheers
