Merry Christmas. This space was supposed to contained a pixeled sleigh gif which I ... haven't finished drawing yet . Soon. Until then Merry Christmas. Ah here it is: My favorite present was being reunited with one of my favoite childhood games, a marble game called solitare. 32 marbles 33 holes. It was the original wooden plate too, a victorian piece that had been by Mother's Grandmother's. Here's the thing of it. My Niece, Nicole, looks it over and I explained to her how you play the game. She sets to work jumping marbles and in a few moments sighs and admits defeat. She got down to one but its not in the center. It took me two years to get to that point when I was her age. 11:59:37 PM    comment [];trackback [];
