What's Your Game?

As much as I love reading and writing, there are times when my brain needs a fun and pointless vacation...

Some years ago I got hooked on an on-line solitaire version of the ancient Chinese game Mahjong, where you match tiles. I still play occasionally. Here's what one board looks like:

My #1 on-line addiction, hands-down, is Scrabble, which I play against various friends on Facebook. In fact, I got our own Kelly Parra hooked in as a regular opponent, as well!

Recently, I've also found joy in on-line jigsaw puzzles, which come in numerous sizes and shapes, meaning I can pretty much find one that's right for my time constraints and moods.

So now it's your turn! Please share what games you like to play...so we can check them out, too!

  2. Ida dear, so nice of you to stop by and comment! In fact, I do believe you just beat me in Scrabble by about 200 points. But no need to announce THAT on the internet, huh? ;)

  7. I try to just keep it to Scrabble. Its fun and if I add too many more I won't accomplish anything. Although online jigsaw puzzles intrigue me.

  8. Great, Tina, I didn't need to know online jigsaw puzzles existed. I blame the inevitable drop in productivity on you.
