Wii Would Like to Play

I've wanted a Wii ever since I first saw the commercial with the two little Japanese men at the door saying, "Wii would like to play."

So, the other day, I asked Husband if I could have a Wii for Christmas. In typical Husband fashion, he pulled some strings and two days later, guess who had a Wii (a little early for Christmas, but who cares about that?)? ME. And, guess what else I now have?? A "Dancing With the Stars" game. Husband and I also have two controllers, so we can play head to head (and that is what Husband likes the best in life - beating me at everything).

The best thing about the Wii is that you don't just sit on the couch pushing buttons. You get to stand up and do the movements.

I'm kind of obsessed with it. So obsessed, in fact, my entire body is sore from dancing for FIVE hours the first day and FOUR hours yesterday (Even though I am sure that I've done serious damage to my hips, we finished all the available dances today). Husband and I also boxed, bowled, and played some baseball. My husband is the greatest!

It is a great workout, and cheaper than a gym memebership for a year...think about that investment!

The unfortunate thing is that I also already have a gym membership that is currently going unused (because I am LAZY). I prefer the dancing to walking on the treadmill in my spandex, that's for sure.

Wow, do they have Karaoke Wii?

I'm sure you can beat your husband there.

Who can beat the awesome gold medal karaoke singer?

Roll song: I will Survive...

Goooo, Japan!!
