Yesterday I got the family together to play a game of Risk. We had only ever played once, and a long time ago, so we couldn't remember how to play.
Everyone started out quiet, a bit grumpy after the days events. But, eventually everyone loosened up.
I suffered a humiliating defeat. Absolutely terrible. I only survived because my only territory was in Europe. Everyone was piled up there, and I was so little a threat, while everyone else was huge, that they had no time or need to worry about me.
Of course, I still enjoyed it.
