I feel this summer will be full of Monopoly for me and Jake. It seems to be the only game he actually likes and is willing to play. Definitely not a Robinson/Frazee. At least not yet. Give me time...
We finished a game last night. I ended up winning by forfeit. The math was going to be incredibly difficult and time consuming to sell houses/hotels and mortgage property, so Jake gave in.
Today, we sat down to play another game. He was doing ok, feeling defeated I think about last night, but hanging in there. He had a sour apple sucker and kept playing with it. I said "Jake, stop touching that, you're going to get all sticky and then the game's going to get sticky and then every time we play, we're going to have to play sticky monopoly." He then got up and started walking away. I asked where he was going and if he was serious and he said "yes, i'm serious. I'm going to go be sticky someplace else." And that was that. Here I am blogging.
Personally, he was looking for a way out :) He knew i'd dominate again.
