Mii Fit!
This isn't me (Mii), but it's a picture of my favorite Wii Fit game. Seriously, when I'm working against the clock trying to get those flippin hoops to spin! spin! spin! I don't notice, a.) that I'm sure I look like Cloris Leachman (see here if you don't know what I mean), and b.) that oh-my-goodness, I'm exercising! When I run, I may generally enjoy it and feel good that I did it, but I definitely feel like I'm running.
This thing really appeals to my OCD side (inherited from Dad), in that I want to try juuuuust one more thing. I have no problem getting to 30 minutes (they count all minutes that you are actually doing an activity, not the time in between), and just when I think, "Well, I'll wind it down," Lo! A new activity is unlocked! So I must try it! And then, well, I ought to "cool down" with something I know. And I certainly can't quit on THAT lousy score, so I must do it again! So before I know it, it's midnight on a day I professed to be tired, and I feel fantastic. Will see how the year progresses with this thing. Prospects are bright.

Hmmm...so many friend now have Wii, and a couple have the Fit thing now, that I'm starting to seriously consider it. Not just for me, but I can picture the kids collapsing in fits of giggles.
I love my Wii Fit! It was quite a surprise to get it in the mail on Friday. I am quickly realizing how I am so out of shape and really need to work on my posture and balance. It is nice to have a form of exercise that is addicting!
