Obsessed with Wii!

OK, so Elliot and I now have a new Wii, which were able to get for "free" after cashing in our BB&T Visa credit card points. The Wii is super fun, and I am totally obsessed! I haven't really played video games since my original Nintendo system back in the mid-80's (hello, classic Super Mario Bros!) Right now, the only games we have are Wii Sports, Wii Play, and Big Beach Sports, but I want to get lots more! Especially, I want Wii Fit since I think I would have more fun working out and attempting to lose weight if I were actually fooling myself into thinking that I'm playing a video game! Anyway, the games we have now will have to suffice for a while because new games are expensive! If any of you fellow wii-ers out there have games you'd like to lend us, please let us know! We can swap games! Also, I really want to try out the Mii Parade and the Wii Message Board, so I need to register some Wii friends! Send me your Wii number and I'll see if I can figure out ours so we can interact through the Wii console!

New Computer

Well, my new computer should be arriving today! I can't wait to get it set up and start customizing it the way I like it. I am still slightly bummed that I ruined my one-year-old pink Dell laptop by spilling a full cup of coffee on the keyboard! Sigh... Oh, well, I guess accidents happen, but I hate to start the New Year off with a $1,000 mistake! And of course, I had just finished uploading my entire CD collection onto my poor laptop for syncing with my new iPhone. I was planning to backup the iTunes library this week, but no chance of that now...

Anyway, my BRAND NEW computer is a desktop with a flat screen monitor and wireless keyboard and mouse! Elliot found me a great deal online price-wise! I hope it is waiting for me when I get home from work today so I can start re-uploading my CD collection to iTunes (this time I will backup every hour or so :-P). Until I get it up and running, the iPhone will have to do!
