Oh my! I agree! What is with these games?! I can play the Trivia 
Game, but I know I'm not playing it correctly. Haven't tried the 
second one yet. Now, the Mystery at Hogwarts game is FAIRLY easy. 
Much like Clue. Still, I never know when to play certain cards. 
However, the WORST possible game they have come out with has to be 
the Quidditch card game. My friend and I tried for hours to figure 
it out. I was thinking, "If two tweny somethings with college 
degrees cannot figure out this card game, how are kids supposed 
to?!" I was talking about it later with a younger girl and she said 
one of her friends (she's ten) figured it out. I said, "But, my 
friend and I couldn't figure it out! She replied, "Yes, but this 
girl is the smartest girl in my class." Outdone by a fifth grader. 

On a separate note, I got two kittens from the Humane Society 
yesterday. Named one Fawkes. :-) Still deciding about the other 
name. I mean, she's white, so Hedwig would be perfect. However, my 
other choice - Scully - suits her better. And, if you're an X-Files 
fan, you'll see the irony in "Scully and Fawkes." hee hee.
