Okay, it has been awhile, but I finally made it to 15 comments! And it has been two weeks.
I first have to appologize for not commenting on everyone's blogs lately. It has not been that I was busy, just apathetic. So forgive me.
Now, on with the update:
Feb 9:
I stayed home from work. I was really itchy and went to the doc. Looks like I am having a allergic reaction to something. I got hives all over my chest and arms. He told me to get some allegy pills and find out what the cause of the alllergy.
I went to a rock show that night. Well, it was like a band playing at a bar, but I went anyways. I didn't stick around too long. It just seems weird to be in a bar on your own listening to a band you have never heard of before. While I was there the music was good. I quite enjoyed it.
Feb 10:
I can't remember, it must not been that great....
Feb 11:
Visited the 'rents.
Feb 12:
Work, eat, sleep.
Feb 13:
Had dinner with my co-workers and CEO of the company. Went to Ceasar's Steakhouse. Boy was the place expensive! The cheapest entree was like $45! Since I wasn't paying, it didn't really matter... hahaha. I had the pork ribs. It came with the pineapple fridder, which to me was just a doughnut! Mmmmm Doughnuts! It was a good meal, but expensive. I would go there if I had to pay. I rather go to Moxie's or something.
Feb 14:
YAY! Love day! Well, for others, not me... nobody loves me. Okay, enough emo... move on.
Feb 15:
Umm... Tea day! Fun was had by all. There were some unexpected guests which made the night rock!
Feb 16:
Ummm... Nothing happened!
Feb 17:
Doooo dooo dooo... stayed at home.
Feb 18:
Went to the rent's house. Had some ribs.
Feb 19:
Family day... stayed at home and did nothing.
Feb 20:
Work, eat, sleep.
Feb 21:
Tea day! Had a great conversation with one of the frequent members. It was just me and her for about an hour. Great person to talk to. Others started showing up after that. Good times.
Feb 22:
You remember that allegic reaction I was having, well, I had huge attack this day. It is quite frightening to take off your pants at the end of the day and see your legs are covered in hives/welts. Man I sure wish I knew what the cause is.
Feb 23:
Got me a copy of Twilight Princess for Wii today. YAY! Now I just have to find a Wii to play it on....
Which leads me to my next rant....
How am I suppose to get a Wii?
It seems most stores can't even keep these things on their shelves for more than a day, which begs the question outside of blind luck, how am I suppose to get my hands on a Wii (tee hee)?
Now, I have gone to many places and asked if I could place a pre-order.... nope can't do that. Why? Because they wouldn't know if I would get it in a week or 2 monthes. Well, as time goes by, I am wondering what the difference is. I haven't found a place where I can get one, and I have be looking for a month now. Seems to me that a pre-order would guantee that I would get one, eventually and know where to go to pick it up. Grrr.
I have tried the online stores, but none are doing the shipment thing, or the store pick up thing. Grrr stupid online stores.
I am boycotting ebay, because I refuse to pay $75 dollars for shipping on any item. Stupid greedy e-garage selling peeps.
I have asked when the next shipments are coming in at some places, they respone: "We don't know." How can you not know. You would like they are coming in on a regualar basis right. Say like every Wednesday or something, or at least give me a best guess as to when, but I don't know? How can you not know? Or are you just saying that so I will stop bothering you with a question you are probably have answered 20 times? Grrr.
So as it stands, the only way I am going to get one is if I stumble onto one by chance. This seems really irritating to me, because I really don't like my chances. I work during the day, and I am betting that is when shipments are coming in during the day and sell out by that day too before I can even get to a store after work. So I would need to know the exact day a shipment is coming in, take a day off work, sit outside the store and wait. But that is the thing, I don't know when the shipment is coming! So, I can't plan it like that, or I would have to take an entire week off and sit outside a store and wait.
I am just frustrated with this whole thing. Why can't it be easy? Why must I rely on blind luck? Grrr!

They took my box away last Thursday. I know it was the fair thing to do. There are others that want to complete this task like me, but there is very few machines to go around.

I know I will get another try at this, I just don't want to screw it up next time. YEAH!

i agree with your view on how it's stupid that you have to leave it up to chance to get a wii. it's very stupid. why don't they just take pre-orders, and call you when it's in? it's silliness. it's also really hard to believe that it's still in such high demand.
good luck with finding one.
