This picture is of that split second when you think you've actually bested the claw machine and won something. The pause right before the claw's limp grip drops the stuffed fox you want so badly and laughs at you for taking all of your hard earned quarters again. Tonight we went to see a movie, but I made us late for the showing we wanted, so we got to kill an hour playing arcade games. Nicole focused on the bouncy ball related ones where you win prizes. I however played the double screen, six(!) controller X-Men button mashing game and felt like I was ten years old again (this game is only topped by the similar Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game). Speaking of feeling like a pre-teenaged boy again, the movie we went to see was Suckerpunch. I'm pretty much reliving puberty all over again tonight. Game Over.
