I've had my share of passing addictions. The first was space invaders in grade 4. My mother tried to cure me of this addiction by borrowing an Atari for a week. That was the week those little creatures danced across my bedroom wall each night. It didn't work. It only made me want to buy an Atari.
I'm all grown up now and no longer addicted to space invaders, phoenix, or tetris. However, I did acquire a Wii Fit last week. It really is everything people say it is. However, there are drawbacks. The laundry is piling up, I could build a sandcastle with the dirt on my kitchen floor, and don't even mention bathtime. If the kids start to stink, I'll just spray them with Febreeze.
Today, I logged 90 minutes. I wonder how long it will take before I download Tetris for the Wii.
