Jolly boy suckers

This afternoon, we pulled out the version of Trivial Pursuit that Jeff had handy and started up a game. It appears that version six has some particularly stupid questions. The whole game was aggravating and most of the questions walked the line between useless and impossible.

We did come across some great phrasing. Apparently, the guy who started the Good Humor ice cream company was inspired by a brand of suckers called Jolly Boy. As it turns out, the emphasis on the syllables matters just as much as the placement of pauses when you say that. Jolly boy-suckers sounds pretty horrifying. Jolly-boy suckers is less horrible. 

Jeff made dinner, and after that, the three of us went out for a beer, followed by some hot chocolate. Good times. I think it was about time to get Jeff out at a bar. Sure, he's a totally responsible adult and he only had one beer, but it was still good to get him out where he could talk about what was really on his mind without worrying how his kids would interpret his words. 

We have a little bit of a nature walk planned for tomorrow, and I am, of course, down to clown. That's our last big deal before Cas and I head back to the airport. After that, it's back to reality. Ugh.
