"It is not the ctitic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

List Making Addict

~I've always thought that a big laugh is a really loud noise from the soul saying, "Ain't that the truth."

Record for blog viewers in one day today-most in the last month of statistics that I can see!

So, for FHE tonight we played a few games. I've played them before and have always struggled. I've decided to work on lists of things to make them easier next time I play. Because I'm sure there'll be a next time.

"I have never" or "Never have I ever"-great game! I love it. Fun times playing that in high school with my friends and my honors English class. It's pretty easy-you put up ten fingers. As you go around the circle each person says something they've never done. The other players put down a finger if they have done it. Last person "wins"-pretty much, they've done the least.

I always have my generic "never tried a hamburger" and what not. But I have been on an airplane. And a lot of people haven't been out of the country or broken any bones. And I know there are a ton of things I haven't done but I am not an on-the-spot thinker. But I am a list-maker! So I plan on making a list to refer to if I ever play again.

"Two truths and a lie"-pretty sure everyone's played this. It is a very common get-to-know-you game. Simple: you tell two truths and one lie and everyone guesses which one is the lie. Now, if you know me you know I'm a terrible liar. Haha, besides the not being able to easily come up with good ideas :) So I plan on making a list for this as well!

So basically, I love lists. I make them for even the simplest and least important things in life. The end.
