Celebrity

Last night, Sigrid stays with us and her betrothed stays with his family at the house they are renting up the road. Arrangements with the airline and Dave will arrive today at eleven o'clock. Last night though feel a bit melancholy at the thought of losing sister. Sigrid, howeer in extremely high spirits and she suggests a game of Celerity as a family. She explains the rules (one of her favorite things to do.) Celebrity similar to charades in that each person submits names of clebrities on slips of paper and the group is divided into to teams. In round one, the person drawing the slips of paper out can use as many words as he wants (witnout saying the actual name) to explain who he has drawn. The point is to get one's team to correctly guess as many celebrities as possible in a minute. Round is just the same except that the reader may only use one word to describe the celebrity (cauasing the reader to say the word oer and oer again in different tones, bulgin g eyes, etc.) and Round three forbids the use of words, which turns the game into a version of charades. In the portion of the game in which one only says one word, the Grandmother says Anklet for Martha Stewart. Which causes Sigrid and me (who are on the Grandmother's team) to gasp for breath laughing.
