(no subject)
so last night, on hunter's birthday celebration thingy, we went to the arcade. at first i was very disoriented. i think i was justified, it's quite the odd place. the guys headed straight for the street fighter in the back of the place. i followed and shortly thereafter got my ass kicked. next to street fighter was a shooting game that had sensors so if you leaned, the character moved too (sorry, had to explain that). hunter stated with a grin that he wanted to see me shoot a gun so i played a little. of course, i was really nervous from both being in a place i'd never been in and playing a game that was a little to involved for a newbie. so after hunter got his amusement and a line formed at the street fighter machine, adam and i went off to play pseudo street fighter but with heroes, where you could have 3 of them at your use at one time. it was great. we played that for over half an hour and i actually ended up beating adam 3 times in a row and scoring 9th on the machine's memory thingy. they must have just reset it or something. anyways. i wake up this morning to feel my quads burning. apparently, 5 minutes of that shooting game (where all i did was duck and lean) worked em. and my forearms were a little sore, from too much intense street fighter i'm assuming. so the moral of the story is: going to an arcade is, oddly, a type of workout. and i didn't even try ddr.
