Wii would like to play...

Last Friday night, Alex and I went to dinner at my sister's house. After dinner, while the rest of the group settled down for a long game of Canasta, Alex and I went into the living room to play game on the Wii. INSTANT ADDICTION! We played for hours! Surprisingly, what I like the most about the Wii, aside from the totally cool controllers and interactive games, is the physical aspect of the thing. You get a real work out playing those sports games. And while I realize I suck at the baseball game, I am using muscles that haven't been used in a while!

Yesterday, we went to GameCrazy and bought a Wii for ourselves. This is something of a miracle, since they only put about 2 of them in any given store and they are always sold out. How we found one, albeit the last one they had, so quickly was providence for sure. We played it for HOURS, and I do mean HOURS! So much so that we were totally exhausted when finished and were somewhat scared that in the morning neither one of us would be able to walk upright again. But we could...and with only a few twinges and a slight limp! Haha!

I recommend the Wii...get off that couch with your overly buffed thumbs from all those other game consoles...get those thunder thighs moving!! And have a hell of a lot of fun in the process.

Oh and one more thing - I am quite the virtual bowler. Who knew?
