Tonight's parlorgaming was ne plus perfecto. It was announced on the new Fun list (by me) and at Psi Phi (I don't know who by since I couldn't make the meeting) as being from 7 - 9 tonight. I got there at 7 and didn't see anyone at first, then ran in to Rhiannon (sp?) the frosh, who was over in the lounge. We waited in the east parlor, afraid at first that nobody else was coming. To pass the time we played the bet-your-points-to-move-the-penny-toward-your-goal game, which was just finishing when people arrived, all within about five minutes: Eric, Erin, Herbert, Michael, Rebecca G., and Will. We Pavloved for an hour (including getting Herbert to open all the curtains in the parlor (including the one she inadvertently tore down the curtain rod of :^) and totally confusing Erin when trying to get her to put her palms together - she became fixed on this bubblewrap-padded envelope, convinced we had clapped because she had (with both hands) picked it up. She did many things to it including jumping up and down on it triumphantly).

Then we had one of the most fun games of telephone oracle I've been in, a bit of which will be in SWAPA. Let me just say that a handwritten "S&M" should get mistaken for "gum" more often. The results are hilarious. Annie arrived near the end, bringing the student:alum ratio to 1:1 which is lower than I was hoping for, but if word of this parlorgaming's niftiness spreads hopefully there'll be more interest in the next one.
