Tonight my wife is out of town as is my oldest son. So, my kids and I had a low key night at the Amazing Pizza Machine. It was surprisingly awesome for me and my two daughters. I was confident that the boys would have a good time but Martha is a ticket machine - she hit like four jackpots without even being able to see the game - just by hitting a button or spinning a wheel. She is amazing.
So this brings me to my family's odd talents. First, my sister Mary just got a job as "dining attendant" in Antarctica. Excuse me. What? - yeah that Antarctica - penguins, cold, seals, cold, birds, cold - freaking freezing cold. Second, while standing at the Amazing Pizza Machine, I saw the three-pronged stuffed animal lift game. It made me miss James. About 2 years ago we had dinner at Mama's Pizza in West Omaha and James literally won eight animals out of nine tries on that machine. Odd, yes I think so. I miss that guy and was sad when I went into the shared boys room and there was an empty bed.
