A Mixed Day....

Today's been wonderful compared to some, but still not quite the way it should have been. I did play Monopoly with Ray for awhile this evening. It started off friendly enough, until he started losing, of course. As soon as the " tide " changed in the game, and it looked like he was losing, he became a completely unreasonable " grouch " ! He TOLD ME that I could NOT build on one of my monopolies, and then even later when I would have continued to build more on my Other monopolies, I " gave in " and didn't because I saw that if I did I would have never heard the end of it ! So for a large handful of my turns I didn't build, even though I wanted to, but still in the end he lost the game. We got to a point where I had rolled the dice, and got " Land - On - Go " again, so he decided to quit. He had already turned in a large chunk of his properties for payment, and his money was much lower than mine, so it wasn't completely unreasonable to end the game at that point. 

I just WISH he wouldn't have been so damn SOUR and GROUCHY about it ! 

He was almost " proud " of pointing out to me that he " COULD HAVE " been even MORE UPSET than he was about it, but he wasn't. 

What was I supposed to say to that ? 

I didn't know what else to say except, Yes... I know... and that's good. 

I said all of that while thinking..... " WHAT am I really thanking you for ?! ".... " Am I thanking you for acting HUMAN ?! "

That's pretty much what it boiled down to. 

Right now it's 11:45 PM Sunday 2 - 15 - 19 .... and he's still OUT for his " WALK ". 

God knows... WHO he's on his cell phone calling right now ?!?!... There's NO Telling WHO ?!.... 

I would ASK him, IF I thought he was actually give me an HONEST Answer without throwing back raging attitude my way with his answer ! 

I just HOPE that tomorrow proves to be a " GOOD DAY " ... I HOPE... AND PRAY !!!
