I bought the game of Khet ( LINK ) for a prize at BrainShare and it looked so intriguing that I bought one for myself. Marilyn and I played it last night. The first game Marilyn wasn't doing so good so I let her win. HOWEVER, in our second game that I was trying to win, she just plain beat up on me and killed my pharaoh with a laser beam about 15 minutes into the game. Dang...I HATE it when that happens! Cool game. Each person (2 players) has a laser on their end of the board. You have different pieces that can move/act in different ways with various configurations of mirrors. Your goal is to bounce your laser beam around so it hits your opponent's pharaoh. Sounds easy. It's not. With two of you moving mirrors around, blocking, and strategizing, it's quite intense. If anyone (local) wants to borrow it, feel free.

Any intellectual would love it! But I don't fit in that category. I thought it was totally mind boggling.

I'm no longer "un-officially engaged". That's right. Your teasing and blunt hinting is old news. You all know the big news. No definite date yet, but it's looking like beginning to mid-July. *sigh* Long time. It actually works out great to do it then for when Katie's parents come home and Brigham's school stuff. I told Christa I'd put up pictures on here, but I realized I don't actually have many pictures. Mom and Dad have a few. These are a couple of pictures Pictures taken with my phone today. Better pictures coming, I'm sure.

Update on Me (if anybody cares) The Dr's office called yesterday and said they'd scheduled an appointment for discussing taking care of my thyroid through radiation. I said OK. Then, the Radiologist called me an hour later and said he wanted to do it over the phone, and give me the radiation treatment today. So I talked with him for quite a while. He says I have Graves disease (updated : I previously said White's disease), and highly recommended the radiation treatment, although there are a couple of other options. After weighing out the options, I've decided to go ahead and do the radiation treatment, because it doesn't completely kill the thyroid. It just severely hurts it. I'll be taking a good dose of Iodine-131 , which has the sideaffect of not being around my unborn baby for a while, which in turn means staying away from Erica. That won't be fun.
