Why I'm Not a Gambler

Confession #1: I love Jeopardy. That may make me 25 going on 75, but I don't care!
Confession #2:  I love it even more when it's "Kids Week," because it makes me feel like a genius. You better believe I run the categories about Justin Bieber and Nickelodeon TV shows. Don't hate.

How can you not love Alex Trebek and his snarky way of correcting the contestants on their pronunciation of "Guadalajara"?!

Back to the title of this post. Why am I not a gambler? Mr. Malone and I sometimes place bets on the game... get your mind out of the gutter, kids. The bet is always as such - whoever answers the most questions correctly during Jeopardy gets to have a dinner of their choice, made with bitterness love by the loser.

I seem to do great in the first round, when they throw in a couple of Pop Culture categories to make the contestants feel good about themselves, but shit! By the time we're four answers into Double Jeopardy, I realize I'm screwed. And categories about bible verses/anything religious - fugheddaboudit!

Moral of the story? Don't bet on Jeopardy with your husband... especially if you know his meal of choice is going to meatloaf. Blech.
