Man Plans Special Weekend To Reaffirm Commitment To Xbox 360

[madinmaryland]

HAGERSTOWN, MD—Local resident Tom Fletcher announced Wednesday that he has made all the necessary arrangements and cleared his entire schedule so that he can spend a quiet, uninterrupted weekend reconnecting with his Xbox 360.

Fletcher admitted to reporters that he's been neglecting the console for the past six months, but said he hopes the two-day, three-night living room getaway will go a long way toward reviving the tight bond he once had with his Xbox.

"It's going to be really nice," the 33-year-old structural engineer said of the upcoming weekend. "No phone calls, no e-mails, no distractions whatsoever. Just me and my Xbox 360. I'll probably even open up a few nice bottles of Arizona Iced Tea for the occasion."

"Hopefully it'll be like it was in the beginning when everything was fresh and new and fun," he added. "When starting a new game didn't feel like a chore, like work."

Fletcher said he plans to ease into the weekend with a little bit of Madden, which he hopes will then lead to a long and passionate night of game playing. Fletcher also told reporters that rather than get up early the next morning, he will most likely sleep in, make some breakfast, and spend the whole day just lying around with his Xbox.
