The Game of Life

When I was younger, I loved this game. I remember playing this up in my bedroom for hours at a time with my friends, trying to drag the game out as long as possible. The idea of being an adult fascinated me.

I also remember, my entire goal for this game was not necessarily to win, but to have as many children as possible. I considered it a success if I had not one, but TWO cars filled with the little pink and blue plastic pegs that represented kids. I had one car that was filled with girls and another car filled with boys. I would rig the game to have the spinner land on whatever number I needed in order to get more kids. I cheated in the game of life to have more babies.

Weird.
