Bonding Friday

Mom & PlusOne are bonding. They are bonding over Age Of Mythology. It is a fun computer game that has you"Taking on the role of one of nine ancient civilizations. Players guide their people to greatness by commanding all aspects of their empire: gathering resources, raising massive armies, waging war against enemies, establishing profitable trade routes, building new settlements, enhancing production or military might with improvements, exploring new frontiers, and advancing through four distinct ages."

Now, mom would prefer not having pirates attack every five minutes, but it is sort of fun. Of course, she broke down and got the purple flying hippo and the lazer bears because, as I said, she was tired of the pirates attacking every five minutes.

The only problem, is that PlusOne's computer is Windows 2000 and mom's is XP and the game is having problems on PlusOne's computer.(Something to do with DirectX.) So they have to play it on mom's. And that is where PlusOne is right now. Along with all of mom's photos. She is on his computer, so I can't post any cute photos of me. Sigh. Sharing is hard.

Oh Roxy - Sharing is not so hard especially when it makes someone (Plus One) happy. Maybe you can post some cute patriotic photos of yourself tomorrow.

Yes sharing is hard. Fortunately the Woman has the mac with the photos and most games run on the pc...what I hate is that she can make her mac BE a pc and then I don't get my photos done... sigh.

Hi Roxy! I love all the plans your mom has for Plus one's summer. It makes mom wish she had close relatives living close by, but no. She has some cousins but they are VERY old, and they barely see each other because they moved to this country before mom was born. Mom misses her family so much, how lucky Plus One is to be able to spend some time with his grandma. Priceless!
