Our new Wii.....is it a good thing or bad???

So last weekend, Dan and I were at my parents. My niece, Morgan has a Wii, so they brought it out so we could all play. Dan and I really enjoyed it, so we thought lets get one. We got online and were looking, but not a lot of luck. We had to stop by Wal-Mart on the way home so we just thought we would look. They actually had one, so we bought it. We played a couple times throughout the week. On Friday, Sam and Sarah came up for the night and we busted out the Wii. It was a lot of fun! The only thing about the Wii is that Dan and I are both super competitive! There were a couple times that night that I was like, I don't know if buying this was a good idea. You know when the competitive side comes out things can get crazy. We are trying to not let it ruin the game! Now I will tell you that I get pretty into playing. Especially tennis! So three times when swinging the "racket", I hit Dan in the arm!! It wasn't just a tap either, poor thing!

I have been looking online for a Wii Fit. I had heard they were hard to find. I don't know what is going on, but we went to Wal-Mart today and guess what........they had a Wii Fit! I was so excited! I got it out for a few minutes tonight.....figured my BMI.....yuck! I am really thinking that it will be a great workout. I can't wait to play some more!!!!

I'm sure there will be more Wii stories to come!!!

Did I really need to know that???

So today I had a student, who I absolutley love, ask if he could go to the bathroom right before class. I always tell them to go before class and try not to during class. So he was walking to my room and asked to go. I said yes. Even after I had told him yes, no problem, he felt that he just needed to tell me he had a major wedgie he needed to fix. Now tell me, why did I need to know that? I did crack up and just said really not something you had to share. But it made my day!!!

Good friends and good times!

Today, I finally got to go hang-out with some good friends! It has been forever since we could all get together and I am so glad that it worked that we could all meet at Old Chicago for lunch. There were many topics of conversation and I enjoyed each of them. I always enjoy a good laugh and I had a lot of those today. The food was good and I tried a new beer that was pretty tasty. I went later to get it at Brown Derby so that Dan could try it. We are enjoying a 6 pack while watching the Gators.
I just wanted to give a shout out to the girls and say thanks for a fun lunch. It was so wonderful to hang-out with all of you. I miss seeing you all everyday!! Maybe with the reconfiguration I can see some of you!!!

Oh and this one time I saw a tarantula and.......

Go Gators!

We had a great time at Arkansas this weekend watching the Gators win! All was good except for Alisha being scared of heights and us being on the 2nd to highest row. I felt horrible. When Dan and I looked at the seats online it looked like we were down a level. I am so sorry Trish!!! The game started out really chilly outside and I had major goosebumps for the first half. After that the sun finally came out and started to warm us up.

Florida trip







All was good until Florida, the weather was great, the company fun, and the Gators were playing.....until the end of the game! The game ended with a 31-30 score, Gators lost :( It was a sad day after that. Dan has been a Gator fan for years and really enjoys watching them win. On the occasion of a loss, it is not a fun time to be around Dan. I will say that he actually handled this loss pretty well. Which was a good thing considering I had to spend 13 hours in the car with him the next day. We had a great time even though the Gators lost. The drive home was on my birthday, I know a great way to spend it! I actually enjoyed it. Dan and I have been go, go, go for the last couple months. It was really nice to actually spend some time together. There was one glitch that got us a little nervous. We were driving through Atlanta and noticed we needed gas. We stopped at one gas station and there was a really long line. So we tried another one. NO GAS! We drove on and stopped at the next exit.....guess what.....NO GAS. We had to go a couple more exits and then we finally found one and had to wait in line for about 30 minutes. If you know anything about Dan, he is big on making good time, so this really bugged him. I was just glad not to run out of gas! They even had cops there controlling traffic because of the fights that have broken out because people were cutting in line. Crazy!




All in all it was a great trip! I got a couple of great pictures. We had really close seats. We are heading to Arkansas for a game this weekend! Go Gators! Hopefully they can pull this one off!!!
