I finally convinced Mom and Dad to take me to Chuck E. Cheese. Wow. See, they swore they would never take me there. To them, it is tacky and super annoying. I've humored them weekend after weekend with trips to the Walker, the MIA, bookstores, etc., so I figured it's about time to do something completely kid-centric with no discernible learning opportunity.
Admittedly, I was a little overwhelmed at first, but once I got my bearings I had a blast. I didn't even eat any pizza. I ran and ran and figured out how to put the tokens in the slots and there was no stopping me.
