Friday night I went and got Super Mario World for the Wii. It is just like the old game most of us grew up with for the Nintendo (64 maybe?). I can't begin to explain the fun and laughter we had Friday night. Andrew was off work and Michael didn't have to work Saturday so we didn't have any kind of a time crunch.
The game is up to a 4 player game. Team work is important as well as some sort of video game skill. If you haven't noticed on previous posts, I suck at video games. The boys usually play rock/paper/scissors and the loser gets me on their team. =) This game was no different, but the laughter was nonstop! I just have to say thank goodness that you get unlimited lives. It was funny, there seems to be some sort of a "help" mode for the rookie players where you put a bubble around yourself and float through the game. Somehow, and I don't know how, I kept bubbling myself (the boys were thankful!) and when you die, you come back in a bubble until a teammate bumps into you. Well, lets just say that the boys went to great lengths to avoid bumping into me!! And I have to admit that I did my best to try to get close to them and harass them!! It was so much fun! I know it sounds rough, but we were laughing for two hours! It was a blast!
Saturday I had to get two new tires on my car. No fun. BUT we found out good news about Andrew's car!! It was just short on oil!! Apparently as old as Andrew's car is, it is very sensitive to it's oil level. So one quart of oil and it is running super smooth! Andrew is glad to have his car back, although he did admit that he will miss being my chauffeur! What a sweet kid!
Saturday night I went with a friend to get stuff for my letters. We found great paper for my letters. Then we went to the casino. I know, kinda not right, huh? =) But it was all good. I took $15.00 of my budget and played the 2 cent slots. The three of us found machines next to each other and laughed and giggled for just over an hour. Was it fun, yea, I had fun with my friends, but not something I would do often. I've always said that it is a waste of money, but the three of us had a good time so it was worth it.
I set my appt for my shots starting on Tuesday the 9th. I'll get the Hepatitis A&B. I'll get shot two of this in a month and then again shot 3 right before I go in September. Hopefully I'll be able to get my new birth certificate this week. OH! And HOPEFULLY I'll get my information packet in the mail tomorrow!! Then I'll have all the scoop to share!
I did a new bookmark this weekend. Well the same bookmark as before but new colors! I'll take a picture tomorrow and post it. Everyone seems to like it. I ordered a bunch more corner bookmarks from my friend in Canada. People are encouraging me to sell my bookmarks, but right now I'm just enjoying making them. I'll post pictures tomorrow!
