"This is better than a baby"

The Setting: This is what my brother's friend told him about walking through the mall carrying a Nintendo Wii Fit. Women flocked to him, oohing and ahhing his Wii Fit. It seemed to draw as much attention as if he had been carrying a cute baby.

My family got me a Wii Fit for my birthday (at my request - don't think they were trying to tell me something). I've played games on my friend's Wii before and absolutely loved it. People I know who have the Fit have nothing but good things to say about it. They say it's a good workout and you can actually have fun doing it.

I'll be the judge of that.

I'm hoping that it will be more fun than riding my stationary bike. Fast forward to Monday morning: "Hi, I won't be coming to work today. Umm... because I can't move."
