I am chowing down on Crow!
Just before Christmas I whined that my husband, who could not locate a Wii, found a PS3 instead.

Well.

He located a Wii so he returned the PS3. (Accompanied a co-worker to the store to process an exchange to make sure the guy was the next in line to get the PS3 so it could be donated to a community center.)

Now.

I wasn't thrilled he wanted a Wii in the first place. Video games have never been an interest, even when I was trying to impress teenage boys in the 80s. And quite frankly the money could have been used elsewhere in our budget.

Shit, I play it more than he does. Wii Sports is cool. I've made Pro status in Bowling and the Tennis game is pretty fun too. Golf would be decent if putting weren't so obnoxious. Shoot me now. :)

1. You sound like my wife with the Tivo...
When I brought it home she said, "What did you get that piece of crap for?"

She is now a leading expert on programming the damn thing and has even admitted that she was "wrong"!! (That doesn't happen very often.).

3. "admitted that she was "wrong"!!"
And you recorded it or got it in writing, right?

10. Nah, not an addict.
Didn't play a single bit today. And I can play a few strings and quit.

But I do see the potential!
