    • @alan-light
      @alan-light  Před 3 lety +227

      You're right, we did move on to "advanced UNO." In the 1997 Diana video we were playing with the old-style cards (I still have them) and then a new version of UNO came along with redesigned cards and an automated dispensing unit, battery-operated and we play that. We also like to play Catch Phrase and Apples to Apples. We've never been serious game players. We just play games as an excuse to talk and laugh. We don't really care who wins and usually don't even keep score.

      It’s also so hard to make new friends as an adult, for so many reasons! The last time I asked somebody if she wanted to get a coffee after yoga class, she looked at me like I had an asshole in the middle of my forehead! If only making friends were as easy as it used to be when we were kids!🙁
