Game On!

Friday night, thanks to Nana, we got to go out with our friends Lindsay and Randy Key (sans-kiddo) for a night on the town. Now-- most new parents would probably take full advantage of an opportunity like this and go someplace very "Adult"... Very mature and distinguished... Someplace in Uptown Dallas where you would never DREAM of going with a baby for fear that the stares of disgust would burn right through your Baby Bjorn... Somewhere that warrants having ACTUALLY ARRANGED for a babysitter.

We are not those people.

Nope! We chose to spend the evening at "Chucky Cheese for Adults!" (a.k.a. Dave and Busters) I must say, it was quite fun. We "Donkey Konged & Skeeballed" our night away! (Actually, truthfully... we spent most of the evening playing Ultimate Trivia, but at the risk of sounding like Ultimate Nerds I probably shouldn't have mentioned that...) So, at the end of the evening instead of receiving stares of disgust from Dallas "20-something" millionaires, we got them from a much more "urban" crowd of 3' tall Dallas knee-knockers as we paraded through the arcade with an embarrassing amount of tickets we had won. The hardest part of the night was deciding how to spend our 3,200 tickets at the prize counter. Did we have the nerve to ask the guy behind the counter for 320 Chinese Finger-cuffs?... Or for 640 bouncy balls?... Unfortunately we did not. A couple of T-Shirts and a VERY classy golf glove later, we headed home.

Good thing we didn't have the kid with us!... THAT might have been embarrassing.
