Solitaire

I’ve been playing a lot of solitaire lately and I’m pretty much hooked. I sometimes will lie in bed on my cell phone and just play until I can barely even keep my eyes open anymore. It’s one of my favorite games. I love how simple it is and easy to learn. There’s nothing like a game that you can play any time of the day, no matter how tired or stressed out you may be. I have it on every device I own. I have it on my laptop, my cell phone and even on my Kindle. I like to have it with me no matter where I go. It’s great to have when you are at a doctor’s appointment or waiting in line.

When I was trying out for XFactor the other day, I was stuck at Key Arena in Seattle for about 14 hours. I was so bored. Sadly, I didn’t bring my charger so my phone went dead about half way through the waiting process so I tried not to play all that much. I asked my dad if I could use his phone but he said no because he didn’t want his to die as well lol.

It’s pretty lame how quickly cell phones go dead. If I would have had my charger, I think everything would have gone so much more quickly. I was so bummed out when I realized I could have even brought my computer. I work online so it would have been cool to be able to get some stuff done while waiting. I didn’t sleep the night before too, so I was extra tired.

Free puzzle games

I’m a huge fan of free puzzle games online. I can’t get enough of these things. It seems like they’re everywhere and I’m not sure if it’s just me but I feel like they’re getting more and more popular all the time. I love playing things like Sudoku and Solitaire. Okay, Solitaire doesn’t fit into this category but it’s still a really fun game!

There’s something addicting about a game where you have to try to figure something out and piece things together. There are some nights that I will stay up so late that I barely get a wink of sleep at all. I’m so addicted to these types of games. Anyone else feel the same way I do?

I guess I just find them to be a really great escape from my hectic life and it’s something to do that helps me relax when I really need to turn my brain off and get everything stressful off my mind.

I have been playing games like this for as long as I can remember and I’m guessing these will always be the types of games that I will play. What’s so great about them is that they are fun for the entire family. I love trying to beat my little sister’s scores. There are times that she will come over and we will just play and play and the hours will fly by. It’s so much fun and we never seem to get bored with it. Crazy, huh?
