Gee Wizz, Thanks! And It's Not Even My Birthday!

Over the weekend my beloved celebrated her birthday. (At a funeral).

After two years of not so helpful reminders from my her, I headed out to the Greenhills Shopping Complex to purchase an ice blue Nintendo DL Lite.

I chose Greenhills because I had been reliably informed of its discount prices. Discounted they were, but still about 20% more expensive than in Australia.

Anyways, I had never shown much interest in the mini game console previously.....how could I? With best selling game titles like Paws and My Little Pony it didn't really fit my style as a 31 year old male with a receeding hair line preferring a polo than a Von Dutch t-shirt.

Well, the good news for me - and the bad news for my beloved - is that the range of titles is much more impressive than I originally thought. 76 downloads later of some pretty good games I think the only time she has actually ever used the Nintendo was when she opened it up initially as her present. Somewhere after "Honey, can I look at it for a tick?" she never seemed to get it back.

Now, back to beating Andy Roddick in Top Spin 3....
