Mysterious ways.

HOLY CRAP I AM POSTING!

You will never guess what happened today! So I was having a pretty "in the dumps" day (you can all pretty much figure out why) and I guess someone up there knew I was not in the best mood and decided to brighten it. I was shelving books at work when I looked up and spotted this grad something. A glimmering gem in the woebegone miscellaneous items that make up value village. I quickly dropped my books, like I actually dropped them on the ground, and ran over to see if my eyes were deceiving me. THEY WEREN'T!! I was so excited, I had to have it. Mind you this all happened right after my lunch break. now the deal is with work you can buy during your lunch break and at the end of the day. SO, I had to wait until the end of the day, which was exactly 3 hours away. That was three hours of shoppers that could possibly buy this brilliant thing. Needless to say these were the three longest hours I have endured in a long time. Lo and behold by the end of the day my gem was still there, waiting patiently to be picked up. So you're probably wondering, WHAT THE HECK IS IT?!?! Well I will give you a hint.

Anything???? do you know what it is ????hmm i guess another clue is in order.

AHA we're on to something now aren't we?

But a couple more clues to really help set it in stone.

YEP that's right Wide World came in to the store today!!! I was soooo happy. Now mind you it seems to be a later edition of the game in comparison to the one grandma has. the planes are made out of plastic and there is a whole extra piece I have never seen before...something about weather??? i dunno and the box is different.

seeeeeeee!

The clear plastic grid thing is the weather bit. I haven't read all the rules yet so I don't know if it's all the same. It has all the pieces except the dice and the box is in terrific shape so I thought it was a steal for 3.99 aka 1.99 for me! Sometimes I am just left baffled, why would it be today of all days this game would come into the store?

Now all I need is a "Peru or bust" sign and it will be complete!

Love you all.
