Daniel beat me AGAIN!!!!!!!
For the SECOND time today Daniel has beat me in the LOTR tcg game. This makes either the fourth or fifth time he has beaten in me in this game and I have never beaten him. But when I get my new cards in… I hope it will be different! At least this time I got all the way to site 9 and to the final battle before getting creamed. Oh well, if he’d drawn a really bad hand of cards I might have won. However there were few in his fellowship unwounded at the end. If you have no idea about the way the LOTR TCG is played then you probably have no idea of what I’m talking about so in simple words, Daniel and I played a game this evening. It was very close at the end but Daniel beat me. I will feel a very great feeling of accomplishment when I beat Daniel as I hope I do someday.
Mom and Dad made it back safely from their trip. Which is very nice. They came back while in the middle of Daniel’s and I’s game so I didn’t ask all of the questions and tell all of the news that I would have done otherwise. However tomorrow there will be time for them. It’s nice to have tracking numbers on packages so that you can know when they are. And when they are supposed to arrive. My two new value boxes of LOTR trading cards should arrive on Wednesday!!! And then indeed I may be a formidable foe! Unless I do the horrible thing to myself of not opening them until after Algebra II is done. That might get a lot of Algebra II done though but I’m not sure I’d be able to hold to my purpose for that long.
So I’m glad Mom and Dad are back!
