Afro - Turf...

Why hello again...
I embarrassed Michelle already with her $1.25 story... so I decided that I could tell you a little story about afro-turf...

There are many games that Michelle and I are addicted to. Family Feud, that dumb bird game that I can’t remember the name of… Dead Birds? Crazy Birds? Flying Birds?, (she likes it more than I do- simply because I cannot beat level 1!) Crazy Taxi, Bubble Breaker, and the list goes on. The #1 game that we feed one another’s addiction with would be WORDS WITH FRIENDS (seriously, if you have an iPod… download it!) WWF is not your typical iPod game… It took me quite some time to figure out how to play it… it’s a “slow passed Scrabble.” You get to play your friend and kick their butts! Or in some cases… you get your butt kicked… quite unfortunate. I have yet to get tired of it! (which in the long run, might be a bad thing!)

We have been playing this game for quite some time now. So much that I decided for my birthday I was going to download the actual app and pay for it. $2.99 is the amount it took out of my pocket… Michelle was lucky enough to get it on “sale” for $.99!!! I’m not bitter. I appreciate my ad free game. (hahaha)
So here is where Afro – turf comes into play…

Today I was playing WWF at work, something I enjoy doing while watching my new addiction Greek. The words “Afro” was played…  I looked at it, and said “I’m really surprised that is an acceptable word” (keep in mind… damneder, Qi, shirty, Yore, Goo, gee, Zee, and Jun are all acceptable words as well) I thought that maybe it was considered slang or something… So as I was explain why I did not think it was an acceptable word… I thought to myself “self, isn’t afroturf the stuff that is fake and on football fields?”… It was then that I realized that I had just had my blonde moment for the day. It’s not Afroturf… its ASTROTURF…
