I never knew how long a game of Chutes and Ladders could be. Seriously. So, I was a good dad, this week. Krista had a class that she had to go to...yeah. So, I got to be at home with the kids. Instead of doing the let's-watch-TV gig, I thought that I would actually spend time with Cal and play a board game. We started with Candy Land...classic. I won...he cried. So we played another game, Chutes and Ladders. Do you know how long that game can last. You can land on Chutes time, and time, and time again. It can be a pretty long game. I had no idea. Tonight, we just played Candy Land. The kid has a bed time, you know.

Candy Land can take forever, too. One time, the cards were set-up in such a way that it could never end--you'd get stuck in Mollassas Swamp, then get sent back to Plumpy. The other player would near the end, then get sent back to Mr. Mint. Then, you ran out of cards. You flipped them over, and hit the same places-through eternity.
Now we just throw all the cards in the box, and pick them at random.
Uno. Uno also can take FOREVER. Just so you know...
