For Nothing Knew

We had a gathering this weekend for the sole purpose of getting Girl Scout cookies. Yes, you read that correctly. Nothing Knew and Ivy had to bring us our cookies, so we invited Mets Fan (or should I say Steelers fan?) and family to hang out for the day. Of course we played Wii. I think I impressed Nothing Knew with my ability to stay on the road for the most part in Mario Kart. Not bad for only having the game for a week.

So today, we really did nothing. I took the opportunity to "open" new circuits, although I had to do the circuits I don't like to open the star circuit. But, I am proud to say that I came in first for all the star races and opened up the special races and completely bombed. I also got a new character - King Boo. Although I haven't played nearly as long as Nothing Knew, this progress is impressive. I still do my best playing alone.

S comes home tomorrow and can't wait to get his grubby little hands on the "new Wii". He sounds like he really missed the games, but not us. I've missed the little bugger - can't wait to see him.

And if you missed the post of insults from Nothing Knew to me, check it out here. I may have post a transcript of the conversation I overheard on the Myrtle Beach trip, or talk about Chip, Dorito, Chip.

Now Now...no reason to get testy about this stuff.

I really did agree with you about the deer hitting you thing...and the Sneakers quote was obscure enough that only a few people would ever figure out what I was talking about.

And, since almost no one reads my blog...what the hell.

But congrats on opening up more circuits. Have you played Rainbow road yet? That makes the mine one look easy.

I came in fist for the first two races and then sucked it up for the last two. I didn't do too badly on the rainbow (huge surprise) but I thought I finished and stopped paying attention. I was in 4th. I didn't realize I had to go just a little bit further. By the time I noticed, I came in 7th.
