Monopolize the weekend

in Weekend Experiences11 months ago

A challenge was issued last week and I accepted feeling like I was able to rise to it and emerge victorious; if I did I would be humble in victory, but only after I rubbed it in a little. No, not really, I'd do no such thing. (But yes, I actually would, just a little bit.)

The Saturday night Monopoly challenge was issued during the week and plans were laid soon after. To be energised, a hearty meal would take place but not one of our making. We decided on Thai food which we'd order in. I was in charge of snacks and have made sure there's ample. My guy was placed in charge of the music and coffee duties and just like that, we're ready to monopolize our Saturday night.

I have a good feeling that I'll win; my plan is to wear something, which is to say not much, that keeps his focus on other things, me and my things, and not the Monopoly board and I'm quite sure my devious plan will mean he doesn't play as well as he usually does.

Here's another Saturday Selections installment, one of a series of posts in which I share some music I've been listening to. I know you won't like everything I select and that's ok, it's my selection after all.

- One more night -

- Who Will Save Your Soul -

- Sugar -

If you like music and want to share some with the rest of us you're free to do so and maybe you'll even help someone find some music they haven't already discovered. If you wish to use the #saturdayselections tag that's ok too, it's a free space to do as you wish.

Your tactics are certainly winning, but I don't think your man will think much about Monopoly, but about some other "game" 😀
Monopoly cards scattered all over the floor, that meager winning wardrobe, mixed with his, losing one (which he doesn't mind at all), while "One more night..." plays in the background 🙂

I used some slightly unfair tactics but I decided it was worth it. I don't think he minded at all. I won Monopoly and so my plan worked perfectly.

In love and in war, everything is permitted.
And also in Monopoly 😀

I know you won't need much to entertain him and win the game. Monopoly the entire game and stick to the plan... 😅

Mmm... I would have loved to see those Thai snacks! Best of luck in the game, but most of all, have a great time.

I loved all the songs. I hadn't heard the middle one before, but it's still beautiful.
Phil Collins is timeless, and Maroon's song performing at weddings is super original.

It was a good game and I even gave him the chance of winning a few times but he ended up losing and that's ok, I didn't mind and neither did he because he won a good prize. Me.

I'm sure you won the game. You planned a really good strategy, I have no doubt. But those snacks, the great music and the game, it sounds awesome!

I love the first song, it's very romantic, and the last one is really fun. It was an excellent music selection.

Hugs, Becca💗

The strategy worked out perfectly and he didn't stand a chance at winning Monopoly. We had a really nice time and relaxing weekend all round really. A fairly big Sunday, but enjoyable.

You won! Well done! The important thing is that you have a great time. Big hug.💗
