dave and busted

my landlord's son (N) and his girlfriend (K) from canada are in townfor the weekend and are camping in our backyard. he's a personablefellow and she's a bright sparky blonde. anyhoo, we all decide to goout on saturday to dave and busters. those who don't know dave andbusters - it's an amusement arcade for grown ups with no social life.literally. they do some pretty tasty food too. but the joint was waypacked on saturday. i had no idea so many people in the valley had NOlives.

anyhoo, two hour wait on a table for five (yes two hour!!), so we ventured into the huge games room for a bit of air hockey and carracing - DAYTONA (yeah baby!). it's such a coool thing that theypromote drinking and driving - we must have had 4 rounds on emptystomachs and so driving skills were, um, rather challenged. that wasbefore we answered our call for food, which we devoured shamelessly.

then back to the races (i had a couple of points to prove). by thattime, the joint was now pretty packed and so my troop had to wait abit while i went to fetch the coolies. why is it always me who's eagerfor the bar? anyhoo, on my way back, i notice K have some altercationwith a large black woman. K turns her back to her and the LBW hurls abox a chips at her. (me thinks: oh my goodness, let this night not endto early). fortunately (or unfortunately - depending on how you wouldhave liked the situation to pan out), K just walked away in disgustand the LGW took straight to the door.a huge part of me was really disappointed that i didn't get to see thejuicy bits for my blog. anyhoo, shortly after that, we were asked to leave.

damn, busted!
