So: last night I went to Denny's with Keith. At the checkout counter there was one of those tanks filled with water and bubbles and tiny colored platforms; the idea is to catch coins on the platforms, and then you win something. The coins go to charity. Anyway, on a whim I moved the little knobby thing that maneuvers the platforms and let a dime go into the water. To my amazement, it landed on one of the platforms! I didn't think it was possible to actually WIN at that thing, and by the looks of horror from the staff, they'd banked on that, too. I looked at the list above the tank: I'd won a piece of apple pie! Yes! Since we were leaving, I made the hostess put it in a box, and later, in the leisure of my own home, I consumed it with gusto. Three cheers for yet another impossible thing I've pulled out of my ass this semester.
