It's Friday night at 11:28pm. All of the "cool kids" are out on the town partying the night away.
Not so at the Carpenter household.
Wade & I are sitting in a blissfully quiet house, putting quotation marks around "cool kids" (which, in and of itself makes us completely uncool!), watching a precious babe slumber peacefully on the video monitor, and challenging each other to a geography bowl using THIS site.
I know, I know... we are so lame!
You should go HERE and try it yourself. I mean, er, if you don't have anything else to do on a Friday night. :)
How'd you do?
My geographical genius of a husband only missed 3 states (incidentally, his first two states were South Dakota & Colorado - virtually impossible without a bordering state filled in) and was only off by an average of 9 miles. As for me... well, let's just say that Geography was never my strong suit.
Happy Weekend, y'all!

Ok so let's just say I teach geography for a living! HA. I was off an average of 9 miles, but only got a 92% because of the same problem Wade had -- no bordering states! Love that game. I think i'm going to use it at school! Awesome.
P.S. You should also try: www.sheppardsoftware.com Go to the states and capitals game! This is the one I already use at school.
OK Thia,
The new goal is 96%, 4 miles, and 215 seconds. I can get it down to 185 seconds but can't get the accuracy higher than 92% at that speed.

Is this what I can expect my life to be like once I hit the big 30?
