Mah woman spoils me!

Posted on November 16, 2008 by Linus Posted in Daily life .

So K and I were having some wonderful cuddle time when she asked me if I wanted my anniversary present a week early. She had been asking a few times this week if I wanted it so I figured sure. It had to be pretty special for her to want me to have it sooner. So I said yes. So she told me to get the card in the pink envelope on her desk. I brought it back and opened up to a letter rather than a traditional card. A beautiful love letter. I was nearly in tears. Never has anyone shown me so much love as she has. When I finished reading it, she giggled in the background.

“Ok. Close your eyes.”

I closed my eyes and could hear her dig out the present from under the bed. She put a large box into my hands.

“Ok. Open it!”

I could see a twinkle in her eyes. I flipped open a lid and saw another box inside..

Along the edges was a single word I had been longing to get at some point. A word that would satisify the geek in me while still keeping me active: Wii.

Oh.

My.

God!

The woman got me a Wii console with sports game and simple Wii Fitness in it. It was great! We each did a fitness test. She also played a few games of tennis while I did a few rounds of boxing. I did well on the boxing but not so well on the fit test. I apparently scored at a level of a 77 year old (!!!!). I will be looking into getting an actual Wii Fit boogie board and other stuff. But I have to say, this is a fun console! 🙂

And even more special, the letter made my heart sing even more.

Note: my arms, on the other hand, are rather sore. :/

    Awesome gift!
    I have the Wii Fit – – not that I use it too often! Have you tried it yet? Maybe when you’re up this way we can have a Wii-off.

    BTW – Happy Anniversary!

    LOL.. I do need to get that still. 🙂 It’s back-ordered but I did get my last cheque from the online service and it’s a nice one. So maybe I’ll order the Fit and some accessories. I have to say that my arms are sore from boxing yesterday but we did have fun playing together so maybe I’ll get a 2nd set of Nunchuks so K and I can play together.

    BTW, did you enable the wireless or just get the USB network card?

    And thanks. 🙂
