wiiii!

I treated myself to a new little toy on Friday. I've wanted a Wii for a while now and when I saw there was a deal at Dick Smith, I went after work on Friday to pick one up! I got a Wii console (which comes with Wii Sports), a Wii Fit, and a Moto GP game in a bundle. This was usually worth a total of around $600 (so I'm told), but I bought mine for $388. Not bad huh? If you hurry down to Dickies you can still probably grab the deal! Tell them Rowena sent you - no don't actually, otherwise they will look at you funny and ask whatcha talkin bout willis?

It's pretty cool. I'm very happy with it. I especially love my Wii Fit! It's so much fun, and I am actually doing exercise!! After about 90mins on Saturday night, I was sore all day Sunday and today! If it wasn't for me doing a bit more last night, I think I would be in even more pain today. It's totally dealt with my usual excuses for exercising - weather (too hot, too cold, too windy, too rainy, too sunny, too much hail, not cold enough, not warm enough, too dark, too early, too late) and having no one to exercise with. With my Wii, I can exercise in the comfort of my home and I can't make the excuse of no one to exercise with because I only have one remote anyway! hehe

I'm curious to know if the Wii will actually make a difference to my fitness - actually, I'm pretty sure it can - it's just my persistence (or lack of) which will interfere. Anyhoo, it's my new little toy, and so far, I'm loving it.
