Yesterday, I bought a Wii. My sibs and I are all to join pay for it. If I don't get the money from them, it's mine. I can understand why it's so popular. It's not just a video game system. It's a work out. It's action. It's nostalgia. It's a web interface for your TV. I also downloaded a couple of older games for the system. I got Kirby's Adventure and Donkey Kong Country. I can't play Donkey Kong Country, yet, since we don't have the controller. Kirby's Adventure can be played because you can play the Wii Remote like the NES controller as well. It's been years since I've played Kirby's Adventure. Like I was in high school. Life will be complete nce they port Dr. Mario and Tetris to the system. You can also play the Game Cube games with the Wii, so it's many NES systems in one.

Before I got the Wii, I went back downtown to watch the ends of the St. Patrick Day's Chowdown. I did watch it on TV later. I was on national TV. It was hard to spot me, but at one point, the back of my head got a huge closeup. My dad realized it was my head. My hand got on TV as being the last hand on the right side of the TV to high-five Sonya Thomas as she raced to the stage for the doughnut portion of the contest. When Beth got home last last night, she turned on the TiVo to watch the show. I was going to bed by this time. She said she was jealous of me! She wish she had been off from work and had known of the event. She would have loved to have gone to it. She hopes they have it here next year.

School starts back up tomorrow. I feel like a bum because I haven't done any school work. I'm not going to worry. I'll get it all done. It will be done. Why else would they give us Spring Break?
