I’m soooo Indy
I went to Disneyland for only a few hours. Why? Because if you park in the Downtown Disney lot, the first 3 hours are free! Free! And I have an annual passport….so…the total comes out to…Free!
Well…there is gas…and depreciation on my car. <: /
And it comes to no surprise that everyone was Indy crazy. There is a new little “show” they have that is Indiana Jones themed. It is on top of the shops in front of the Indy ride. A fake Indiana Jones does some fight scenes up there from time to time and I was lucky enough to catch the ending to one of the shows. I had no idea what was going on but everyone was cheering for him!
And…I got this hat > <. I really want to wear it on a regular basis! Do you think this is normal enough to wear… If I go hiking I will. Maybe I’ll wear it when I play Wii Fit! Wearing this hat makes me feel more adventurous.
Aliens in a temple?!?! Let’s do it!
I like it when Indy pulls his hat down when he tries to sleep.
See my pigtails? They mean business.
oOOoooo
Ahh…….
Eeeee…..
Wii Fit!
I got the Wii Fit the day it came out. Actually, I thought the Fit came out on Tuesday…because don’t all new things come out on Tuesday? DVDs, games, music…whatever. So on Wednesday morning, the 21st, I went out to Target at around 9:20 am. The store opens at 8 am, but when I woke up, I thought “If they don’t have the Wii Fit, then they don’t have it and I won’t get it today. I will leave it all to fate and destiny…”. So I got there, and what?? There is one, single, lone Wii Fit left on the shelf.
And I grab it up.
Oh and what?? There is a Wii behind the glass case. A real Wii out in the wild, how rare, I think. Even the packaging is different and Nintendo is marketing the console as “Wii Sports” and complements the packaging of the new Wii Fit. I think, “wow…so the Wii is now going to be marketed as Wii Sports, and this is the Wii Fit. How appropriate”
In the middle of my pondering, a guy walks up to me, looks at my bundle of joy wrapped protectively under my arms and says:
“Is that…the last…one?”
Me: a half cringe and a half smile “yeeah…I think so….”
Inside, I am triumphant and I can hear my evil laugh “mwahahahhahahaa”. I quickly walk away.
I love unboxing almost as much as I love the product. How can objects so amazing be packaged into cardboard partitions. It is almost as if the cardboard is protecting the object from itself because it is just that amazing. The parts must be separated, because as complete, its real power awakens.
The outside looks so pleasing. I’ve always been a fan of green and white.
Handy pictures tell you what is inside! The max weight is 330lbs. That’s important!
I wonder what qualifications you need to be the engineer of packaging.
The extra feet are in case if you have long carpet that inhibits the balance board to stand on its own 4 feet. The feet give the board extra height to overcome the carpet.
mMmmMm….red warning plastic wrap.
Not completely accurate, but based on my ability to balance, the fit still placed me as around 60 years old.
The Fit has been fun so far. I like the step dancing (which can get tiring if you really get into it). The hula hooping and skiing games are fun, and yoga is hard!
Nintendogs…is fake
I saw this nintendo ds commercial on tv the other day. It’s Carrie Underwood playing Nintendogs while she’s on her tour bus I guess.
My question is…
Why is she playing Nintendogs when she has a real dog right next to her? Nintendogs is a simulation of a real dog, it’s not even a fantasy world where dogs talk and go on adventures or something. The only adventure a nintendog goes on is on a walk. I would understand it more if you enjoyed the contest aspect of it but…still… play with your real dog!
