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

You may have read in my last post that during my awesome birthday bash, my friends, family and I had ourselves a little murder mystery party.

 

I mentioned, oh so briefly, in passing, that I was the one who solved the case.

 

It was me that figured out that Kelly (as Police Chief Cameron), killed Justin (as the mob boss, Notorious Nick). I won't bore you with the details, except to say that I actually did think about the clues and then I just made a guess. I wasn't at all certain, I had a couple suspects in mind and I kind of thought it would be fun to accuse Kelly of murder.

 

And I was right! Actually, I was shocked. The only other time I ever played, it was so convoluted I couldn't figure it out after it was explained to me, so it was a shock that I was right. A delightful shock.

 

Why am I telling you this?

 

Well, a couple of people have mentioned to me, since the event, that they thought I cheated.

 

Cheated!

 

As if I would ever cheat. That's not me. I mean, seriously, cheating at a game where there's no cash prize? Come on...I have standards people.

 

For real, though, I have been accused of cheating--well, most people seem to think that Kelly told me that she was the killer.

 

I figured now would be a good time to state, on the record, I am not a crook. Oops, sorry, that was Nixon-- I am not a cheater.

 

And if you think Kelly would tell me, you don't know her very well. Girl loves her secrets. No way she would tell me--that would take all the fun out of it.

 

Oh, and haven't you ever met me, I'm a super smart girl. I figured it out. I swear.

 

Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye (is that how that goes? been a while...)

 

How about scouts honor? I was a girl scout for lots and lots of years- Girl Scouts don't lie.

 

Sigh. What can I do to make you people believe?

 

Okay, I just wanted it out there for everyone to read. I truly did play the game honestly and just put forth my best guess. And I was right. No chicanery involved. It was as on the level as it could be.

 

All right, we're done with that topic, right?

 

Whew. It was good to get that out.

 

Oh and by the way...
