Welcome to Livlife. Where I am living my life out loud, for all to read.

I win.

 

Did you hear that?  I win. Yes, Zack, I am talking to you. I can't believe you would go up against me when you know I am always right.

 

Wondering what I'm talking about? Well, yesterday, my brother Zack was over visiting for Mother's Day. We got on the subject of mountains, I think because of a charades clue or something. Anyway, my dad brought up K2, and I said, "that's in Pakistan." Zack piped up and said, "no, that's in Nepal." I wasn't sure enough to argue, so I let it go, until Zack followed it up with, "it's the tallest mountain in the world." NO--it isn't.

 

I told him Everest was the tallest mountain in the world, but being Zack, he argued with me. Eventually, (to save the game) we let it go and moved on with our lives. But, it kept floating around in the back of my brain, so I looked it up.

 

Here it is: Everest is the tallest mountain in the world. (That's the "I win" part). It stands 29,029 feet tall. K2 is the second tallest mountain in the world at 28, 251 feet. Ha-Ha!

 

But then, there's this. K2 is located in...wait for it....Pakistan! Okay, it is actually on the border of Pakistan and China, but that's close enough for me. I win again. And Everest, well, turns out Everest is in Nepal. Which is fine, maybe Zack mixed the two up or something, but still, I feel that this was an all-around win for Team Olivia.
