Rummy!

Believe or not Alan and I have not been nonstop sightseeing fanatics during our trip. We have read several good books, slept in numerous mornings, eaten some fantastic food and drank lots (and lots) of good local beer. But, we have also been playing a good amount of cards -- 500 Rummy to be specific. I think we played our first hand on one of the first plane rides and we've playing regularly ever since. Why Rummy you might ask? I'm not sure, but I can say that it was definitely, solely Alan's idea. This is important because Alan has won virtually EVERY SINGLE game we have played in 6 weeks! He says it's because he "does statistical analyses" of the available plays, which, quite frankly only adds insult to injury. I mean come on. Every time I refuse to play anymore, he somehow cons me into one more game -- And then promptly beats me. The lesson from all this? My husband is a sneaky devil that relishes in winning and I apparently seriously suck at Rummy. -- Kelly
