This week's words were most challenging for me. My husband might and might not appreciate it, but he knows I love him.The words for this week's ten Word Challenge were: fruitcake, necromancer, gibberish, marshland, Lone Ranger, hog-wild, effluvia, plaintiff, phonograph, fern. And for the Mini Challenge: frozen, history, myrmidon, Shylock, incapacitated
My husband was explaining his necromancer game to me, in a language sounding like complete gibberish. A bunch of fruitcake people sitting hog-wild, frozen in front of the computer. Meanwhile the dishes sit in a marshland, effluvia leaching out into the sink while my husband yells that his Lone Ranger character has been incapacitated; a myrmidon named Shylock swiftly approaching. I dust the fake fern and the old phonograph, as my husband goes on describing the creator of the game, who is also a plaintiff in a huge lawsuit. Yawn.

Very funny... my friend Dan and I get talking about a game we both played and everyone else in the room gets a glazed look on their face... ah, the world of games... Just so you know your Mr. Linky connection took me to last week's post.
LOL that was funny! Well done.
You nailed it and your husband simultaneously. Great story.
Say, I clicked on your link at Raven's this week and it took me back to last Saturday's story. Did you update your Mr. Linky on her site this week?

Wow! You came up with a really awesome megawordzzle and did it in only one paragraph. That's some serious talent there!
BTW, I think the link you put in Mr. Linky takes people to an earlier entry.
Haha, Snoopmurph! I had fun with this. I especially enjoyed the line: "Meanwhile the dishes sit in a marshland, effluvia..." :D))
P.S. Ooops: Many thanks for your cheer over at my place! :)
Dear Sweetie,
I am very proud of my level 79 Necromancer from Diablo II and it is so nice of you to remember. That was from at least 7 years ago by the way! I do really like your line about "hog-wild, frozen in front of the computer."

Level 79 necromancer huh Tommy? You must be really good in bed for Linda to have kept you around this long.
Thanks Bob. As I recall you played Diablo II also.
Anyway I wouldn't want to speak for my wife. But she sure doesn't keep me around for my video game skills!
