My husband and I were the young and naive couple and went out and bought a video game for the TV and spent all our waking hours glued to the TV. After 29 days of no dish washing, no laundry, no ..., we returned it to the store. We VOWED, no more video games in our house.
After many years of marriage and three kids later our best-est friends got us hooked again. We were in video game withdrawal after one weekend at their house, we were hooked, my husband more than me. After much searching for the best price we broke down and got a Wii. My laundry and dishes are still getting done - check, kids are all still safe - check, homework is still getting done - check, dishes and laundry done - check, we seem to have added a neighbor child - ut-oh. We haven't lost any weight unless you count the $$ out of pocket. It is great punishment leverage. If anything, it sure helps pass the long - cold winter days/nights we have 10 months out of the year. Is it helping me train for the long-as-runs my friends are trying to get me to do - ah.....

Wii away! I've never actually had a chance to tryi it. Maybe I'll invite myself over some time.
We had my sister come over the other night and we had her register and it was funny to watch as we all leaned when she was doing the balancing part of it. We all have fun watching someone else.
