'R' You Game?

My parents' home is in a nice rural neighborhood. Right across the street from them live the Greer's. They are neighbors of the best kind: super nice, always helpful, and quiet! One Sunday when I was in Junior High, I was at their house, and their daughters Sue and Carol introduced me to the game Scattergories. I was hooked! I thought it was so fun and I was grateful for any opportunity that I had to play it with them after that.

Years later, Josh and I received that game as a Christmas gift the first year we were married. I was so excited! I am a competitive person and love to win. Unfortunately, my marriage to Josh has been bad for my competitive complex. You see, he almost always beats me at Scrabble and Monopoly and Scattergories (just to name a few). I'm not quite as in love with the game anymore because of him!!! He always finishes his list of items before the timer is done, and shuts it off mid-game, which prevents me from completing my list! But, I've thought of a new contest that would be fun, and I'm not allowing Josh or Ammon to compete this time, which means YOU have a chance to win!

Introducing...my next contest: Media Scattergories!

I randomly rolled the letter dice from the game, and I want you to tell me one of three things that starts with the letter "R ": 1. The name of a book you've read, 2. The name of a movie you've seen, OR 3. The name of a song you've heard.

The same rules as last time apply: Please only one guess per comment, and only up to 3 comments per person!

I'll have Ammon pick a random number on Monday night, so if your comment was that number, you win! After that, I'll announce the winner and their SurPRIZE ! GOOD LUCK!
