Mario Kart Wii

This past weekend, I was in Green Bay visiting my grandsons and dropping off Cheryl for the week. Kim had purchased Mario Kart for the Wii, so naturally, I had to play it, too! Well, I had a blast, so I purchased my own version and I've been playing it ever since I got back.

All I can say is my employer should appreciate the fact that I bother to come in when I could be home mastering Mario Kart! I love the fact that you can play with friends online. So, if anyone would like to trounce me in Mario Kart, send me an email and we can exchange friend codes and arrange a time to play.

Happy Playing!

A Small Plea...

In case you didn't notice, I added yet another Amazon widget to this site. Hey, a girl's gotta earn some extra cash. Anyway, this is called (big drum roll) a Carousel. I think it is kind of cool.

So, if I could make just a small plea. If you're ordering from Amazon, please start here. It puts a few cents in my pocket and it takes no extra time.

Just a small plea.

Happy Reading!

Wii Anyone?

For my birthday, my wife bought me a Wii. Woo Hoo! I finally have a gaming system when it's still cool.

Anyway, my niece informed me that I'm too old for a Wii. Video games weren't invented for people my age. Nevermind that I practically grew up in the video game generation, I'm just going to hurt myself playing it and I should give it up.

Now, I'm forty, but nothing made me feel old until my niece informed me that I'm way too old to play Wii. I mentioned that I've been playing The Legend of Zelda: Twlight Princess. (I've been playing since Christmas and only on weekends. I've got 96 hours of play time and I'm not even halfway done.)

Well, apparently, I'm not even that cool anymore. According to my 14 year old niece, Legend of Zelda is lame.

What are you going to do? I guess I won't be talking to my niece about much -- at least not until I solve the game.

BTW, if anyone knows exactly when and where you find that damn pike fish, so I can get the sinking lure -- please post the answer. Stupid fish!

Happy Playing!
