I acquired caffeine yesterday, but in the post-shopping tiredness, I neglected to bring it in from the car. Problem.

That is the worst. Not as bad as if you share a car and then someone takes the car, and they're gone and you're like "Damn it, I left my stuff in that car."

Oh my goodness. If someone even uses my toothbrush I can never use it again. Same with drinking straws, glasses, etc. If someone puts their mouth onto it, I can't.

I finally learned to play risk yesterday 
Good game
Good gameRisk is okay. Actually, I kinda preferred a competitor game called Castle Risk, which was pretty much the same thing except set in Europe with the various empires.

i used to play risk a lot with my uncle as a kid. I wasn't that good. I could almost never beat him or my brother (though my brother always went with an austrialian strong hold, the cheep-o.) Then I went to college and I had to refuse to play with anyone when ever they set up a game... I'm not that good. They... they sucked monkey balls. They had no concept of even the basic stratagies. So I don't play risk.
Probably wouldn't like playing with me. My strategy is the "brute force" strategy where I amass armies then attack as far as I can. Rebuild armies, then attack as far as I can. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I do not share cars. Because it's my car. Rarely do I need to use my dad's car.

Toothbrushes, no. Straws, cups, maybe. Depends on who it is, current health status, etc. And with cups, if it's a simple case of "this is awesome, try this", I just use the other side.

Toothbrush I'll sanitize in the microwave, but usually chuck it early. Razor I'll throw away the head and put in a fresh one even if it was new. One of my brothers is a bit of a man-whore, not risking it.

I don't care what your strategy is if it works, I just don't like knowing I'll trounce everyone at the table, while playing it half-assed, within 3 minutes of sitting down at the table.
That don't fly brother.

When a games as long as Risk that just means its 2 hours to reach a forgone conclusion. Like watching Titanic over and over.

Good morning Countdown. How are we today?
I'm bored
Work is annoying
it's rainy
... but I had a great weekend, spent all Saturday with a good friend. Also, I just found out some new (to me) information on the internet, and therefore am a bit relieved and actually looking forward to the new era what concerns TU. :-)
Oh, and I will be moving house some time this year - which is good (I believe that my current neighbour/landlady is a witch). :-)
