Wii fit update

October 30th, 2008 8 comments

Yesterday, for the first time in about 110 days, I forgot to weigh in on the wii fit.

Just now, I weighed in and was mocked, “Too busy to work out yesterday, eh Tvini?”

Bite me, wii fit.

ETA: today’s run. NikePlus congratulated me for running 50 miles since starting with the NikePlus device. Wii fit could learn a few things!

Darned civic responsibility!

There’s an early voting place directly across the street from my house that opens at 11, so I just walked out my back door to go vote. The line for cars was way up the street, and people were parking in some very undesignated spots. I asked a lady who was leaving how long the wait to vote was, and she said she’d been told it was 2 1/2 hours.

2 1/2 hours? I have to pick my kid up from school in 2 1/2 hours! I mean, I’m very happy so many people are voting, but come on! I guess I’ll have to try again tomorrow, when the polls open earlier and I have child care. DAMN YOU, DEMOCRACY!

ETA: I decided to walk over and wait in line for an hour and see how far I got. I actually got in and out in about an hour and fifteen minutes, and the line was getting much shorter while I was there, so it shouldn’t be so bad for others going in the afternoon. Mission accomplished!
