too many people have been getting anthrax from drum heads lately! I want to go to a drum circle next week but I think I'll stay upwind.

My friend got a "Wii fit" for Xmas, and the thing told her she's obese. I'm bummed, because she was seeming happier lately, and now she's depressed again. I might add, she doesn't look anything close to obese. It's just so stupid.

I feel like "accidentally" breaking it for her. I could borrow it, and run it over with my car. I'm sure she'd be heartbroken.

Who thought it would be a good idea to include that information?

Idiots.

I am going x country skiing with a group tomorrow. Let's pray I don't get "dropped."

I'm not a big fan of this Wii Fit thing..what a waste of time..why not just go outside for a walk or get a swiss ball & do exercises?? I don't get it...

Anywho...i thought I would try & get an afternoon swim in but didn't think of looking @ the timetable prior to leaving earlier this morning for work. Never try & go swimming during the looonnnggg school holidays without looking @ the timetable..(Our squad pm sessions don't start up again til Mon...I shall wait til then...)

CC, I'm with you on the Wii thing. Of course, I have never played a video game, never will. Go take a walk or buy a dvd, if you can't get out. It's like when I went to Disney World (against my priniciples, but my DH was at a conference). We went to that place (my mind is absolutely blank) where you go on a boat to the island that has the fake representations of different parts of the world. There were some people that thought this was actually like the real thing. Then, another night we went out to dinner at a restaurant which was actually quite good. But, afterwards, we decided to take a walk around the town (this is a real place, with houses, schools) that had been billed as "a throwback to the real thing. A place where there's a town center and people know their neighbors." I got a weird feeling, like a chill, when I realized what the developers were trying to re-create was exactly what I have in real life. They had tried to re-create a typical New England town, one that was suspiciously like the town I live in. Like it was a thing from the past.
I had to leave immediately.
I know a lot of people will disagree with me on the Wii thing, but why spend money on electronics, when you can get fit for very little money.
