Haha, oh man I'm so embarrassed right now. Tonight I got SO MAD at Sam while we were playing Dutch Blitz with Sachiko. I yelled at her, called her a cheater, and then stormed out of the house. I even slammed the front door and then sped off in my car.Poor Sachiko tried to mediate our domestic dispute, but I was being completely erratic and irrational and Sam was, justifiably, laughing at me. Mediate that!
Good thing I'm house/dogsitting right now. It's always a little awkward coming back home after you've made a total ass of yourself. Apologizing is way easier on the phone.
I never yell like that when I'm angry, and I am a bit disappointed that I wasted such passionate rage on a game, even if it the best game on the planet. I guess I'm just saying it might have been more fun to unload all of that rage on someone who is not my best friend in the whole world. I guess I'm also saying that it might also be more fun to unload all of that rage if it was for something worth raging against. Maybe I should organize a game of Dutch Blitz with Joseph Kony and Robert Mugabe?
Moral of the story? The only thing I should be allowed to do when I am tired is sleep.
