This time we went to Legends Mall to hang out for the afternoon.  I needed some new work clothes anyway and I figured there would be some good Labor Day sales so off we went.<\/p>\n<p>We got there in time to miss the lunch rush at Dave &#038; Buster&#8217;s.  Brian and I just ended up sharing everything as we normally do.  We shared the philly steak egg rolls (which is surprisingly good by the way; I&#8217;m not sure why more people don&#8217;t serve it on their menu), had the gold fingers as a $23.99 &#8220;eat and play&#8221; combo, and then had the chocolate fondue for dessert.  We couldn&#8217;t finish all of our food, but it was a pretty good deal.  Even after the additional cost of the &#8220;eat and play&#8221; the cost was still no more than dinner at a nice place so we were pretty happy.  And since the combo gave us $20 worth of credits, our chicken fingers really only cost us $3.99 when you think about it.  Not a bad deal at all.<\/p>\n<p>We had a blast at Dave &#038; Buster&#8217;s.  We played several games.  I played this zombie shooting game with Brian and totally sucked at it.  He kept dying trying to save me so I actually ended up outlasting him the first time.  The second time I told him not to worry about me and naturally I died before he did.  <\/p>\n<p>At first he didn&#8217;t want to play Time Crisis with me because he said &#8220;It takes a lot of coordination and you&#8217;re not good at that.&#8221;  You have to step on the pedal to peek, shoot bad guys, shoot off the screen to reload, step off the pedal and click to change guns &#8212; you know, that sort of thing.  We did play it a few times and he was right.  I was horrible at it.  I think I spent most of the time hiding than shooting.  LOL.<\/p>\n<p>I did kick his ass at Virtual Tennis, though!  I totally dominated him at that game.  I was rushing the net and everything.  Of course, when he was channel surfing last night he came across the Jankovic-Bammer match and he quickly pointed out that they weren&#8217;t rushing the net like I was.  &#8220;They just don&#8217;t know the strategy,&#8221;  I told him boastfully.  Hey, let me bask in the glory of my victory.  It&#8217;s not very often that I can beat Brian at a video game.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, we played a whole bunch of different games.  We gave our tickets away to random kids.  I just wish we had a D&#038;B here in Wichita.  I would totally live there.  Although, I really wouldn&#8217;t mind doing another daytrip like that again.  The drive was nice and relaxing.  Of course, I can say this because I didn&#8217;t have to drive.   And I actually got some reading done.
