We are leaving for Malibu tomorrow.

Andy played poker all day yesterday. When he was done and I asked him if he could do anything in the world right now what would it be, he said “play pinball”. This is one skill I have heard about, and have never witnessed. We went to Gameworks next to the MGM on the strip.

I had no idea that he was a bona-fide, pinball wizard. He even had fans. A 20 year old kid called his friend who was playing some other game to come over and watch Andy’s wizardry. It was a Soprano’s pinball game. He played over an hour on one game and had the all time high score with something like 330,000,000 points. I guess that’s what happens when your a natural genius and spend four years of college in the quad playing pinball instead of going to class.

I’m covetous of my husband’s smart brain. But, he told me yesterday, he’s jealous of my ability to eat just about anything and not gross out, so, I think we’re about even….don’t you? We were talking about eating bugs and that it was strange that our culture didn’t evolve eating them. The thought of eating bugs didn’t gross me out, and I thought that maybe I would even try it.Maybe I’ll just put some sugar in a jar and trap all of ANT INVASION 2005 for a snack on the road.

Time to start packing.
