I've really done it now...

As if I'm not running around like a chicken with my head cut off the way it is...I can't believe I add another thing to do to my day/week/schedule. Some may think I'm crazy, and what do I say to that? They are probably right.

So what is it you ask???? The picture might say it all....

Don't let the poor quality of the picture fool you, this is ROCK BAND 2, with the microphone, the drum set and guitar! It's hours of pure fun and bliss! Ahhh, now you get it, that's why I have not been on blogging much in the last couple days...yes, you'd be correct, I've been much too busy on my Wii to even consider taking the time to tell you how EXCITED I am.

Thanks to Rob and Sarah and them introducing me to this, I have been addicted since the first weekend in January...and looking almost daily for this incredible buy. However, apparently so was everyone else. I'd use my breaks (and sometimes non-breaks) to call stores all over Sioux Falls to find out if they had it in stock. Most were pretty cryptic saying, no and not saying when they expect more in and/or when they even get truck loads in. However, there were two helpful stores: Shopko and Target. I always knew I loved Target for a reason...I was told "Thursday at the earliest" by the young woman at Shopko and Target say "We get trucks in every day and don't know what's on them until they are here, call every day after 11." AND I DID.

This Thursday I, skeptical yet hopeful, picked up my phone and called Shopko...nope, still nothing. Then Target. The man on the phone said, so casually, "Yup, we got two." WHAT, how can he be so casual about this, I've been addicted and not playing for almost a month...I need that. "Can you hold it?" Skeptically asked, "For how long...?" "Less than a half hour, I'm leaving work now...from Sioux Falls, be right there," as I threw on my coat and grabbed my purse.

I was successful, pure success, they held it, and I got it. Oh the pains of going back to work with Rock Band sitting in my trunk, in the cold, all alone....wanting to be played so badly. But I did, not without telling everyone I work with how amazing that phone call was. Thursday night I get home, start taking it out of the box, no doubt those lil packagers that put that thing in the box were way smarter than me, wow...that was a workout in itself. I got it out, just in time for me to have to LEAVE! Ugh, so tempting to call and say, no, I won't make it tonight, however, my banjo practicing has really slipped the last couple weeks and I needed to go...

But the last two days? Rock on! It has been played and played and played. My mom was jamming out to We Got the Beat and I've already had friends over to start a band. With this, It's very dangerous that I may get NOTHING done for the rest of my life. To prevent that, I had to make a schedule:

Work

Workout

Banjo practice

Eat

Wii or whatever I choose, most likely will be wii =)

Somewhere in there I may find time to blog, if you don't hear from me, I'm most likely alive. Call if you like, just to make sure...
