Last night Andreas and I celebrated our return by visiting with friends and playing a game I’d never played before, Fictionary. It’s like the classic Dictionary Game (or Balderdash, for those of you who felt the need to have a board to keep score on), except for that instead of picking a word out of the dictionary and writing faux definitions, you read a paragraph out of a book, and then everyone writes their own version of the next sentence.

It’s a fun game, and a surprisingly good writing exercise. That said, I came in last place.
