Why don't you just tell the whole world about my little addiction?? Some people smoke cigarettes, some of us chose crack. (easier clean up, no ash trays) ;)
I was going to give Steve some suggestions now Margi, if that is ok with you. Jeez. Smoke one pipe before ya post and look at the shit you get. Anyway, Steve....my parents were very poor when we were growing up and thusly had to create vacations at home. Sometimes we pitched a tent right in the living room and slept there. We roasted marshmallows in the fireplace. You can also make S'mores in the oven (put a marshmallow and a piece of chocolate bar between two graham crackers and broil 'til melty). There is always ghosty ghost (hide and seek in total darkness in the house..the person who is "it" has to sit in the bathroom with the lights on and the water running and count while everyone else hides...you can hide by sitting on the back of the couch or up against a wall since it is dark.) Ghost stories are fun as are seances. Scary movies, as Margi suggested. Candle making. Card tournaments. Pudding day (where you eat pudding or cakes for breakfast). Turn the heat way up in your house until it is really hot, get out your bathing suits, turn all the lights on full blast, and drink icy drinks while laying on beach towels. Eat a meal with no silverware allowed. I can go on...but I think you get the point. The point is be silly, spend the time you can together, and make sure you turn off the phone and don't answer the door. I hope you have fun and let us know how it goes. Oh and one more thing...when you suggest it tonight, be prepared for things like.."that's stupid. That sucks." and a lot of eye rolling. Be prepared for that and just ignore it. I think you might have to force this one on them. Just my opinion.
Drugs are bad, Margi.
Peace and love,
Georgia
