Well I guess it just goes to show that I'm rotten at off-the-cuff rules, and when I'm distracted, even more so. Wish I knew how to apologize to everyone, but things kind of snowballed and I'm grateful that our hostess and Lixy have provided a leveling effect for all the other party guests.

Like many of the rest of the group, I wander up to the new play areas that our hostess has provided, but I'm subduing that wild child for the moment and sit to watch what is happening around me.
