Across-the-Board returns to it’s regularly scheduled blogging

I’m back… sort of. My work schedule is still freakin’ crazy, but it’s been a while so I decided to get the blogging out of my system. I’m hoping to blog every day this week -- but I’m not sure if I’ll be able too. Keep checkin’ back…

I did want to share the very eventful past weekend I had. This past Friday night, my roommates and I had our huge 2nd Annual Ugly Sweater Christmas Party. Ask anyone, it was a rockin’ party – and there were some pretty damn ugly looking Christmas sweaters (see below).
I also did manage to pick-up an Nintendo Wii this weekend. It was quite the ordeal. I woke up at 5 AM and stood outside in line at Target. I was the 20th person waiting (out of 60), and they only had 15 Wii’s in stock. So being that I was already awake (it was 7 AM at that point), I decided to drive around to 5 different other places. I finally found a small video game store that had 6 Wii’s in stock. I was the 6th person in-line. Lets just say the video game gods were watching out for me ;). The Wii sports game that comes with the system is pretty fun. Tennis is by far the best game on it. I also grabbed the new Zelda game which is actually really fun.

I will admit, after playing the Wii for a couple hours yesterday, myself and my roommate have pretty damn sore arms and backs. I found myself struggling to get out of bed and move my arms to even brush my teeth. Oh well, the pain is totally worth it. See below.
