Spena... the volvo...

I haven't written in a while. I do apologize. Is it possible to say that a lot and not a lot has happened in the week since I've last blogged?!?! Because that's how it pretty much feels! I mean, I guess it was Thanksgiving week so granted it was meant to be a slow one. But I do feel like I missed out on some hilarious blog-worthy moments in the meantime! :-)
There is one big thing that I feel should note right now. We got a Wii!! Yes, it is simply amazing! Ok, ok errrrrr-rrrrrrrrr (tires screeching noise) so yesterday, Kevin and I are like alright, alright let's do this. We're going to get a dog and we're just going to go to the shelter and see if there are any little boo's we connect with right away, etc. So we take the zipcar out (Spena, the volvo... again!) and after I almost vomit (yes, Kev was driving again... this always happens when I have to ride with him behind the wheel!! :-)) we get to the pet shelter. It was SO sad. Those of you that know me, know that I am not the whole animals rights/yay yay to animals type of person. No, I wish that I were genetically this sweet and maternalistic but truth be told, I am not. SO knowing that I am not a sweet sappy little girl, I was seriously almost in tears after seeing these little doggies all locked up and alone in the shelter. There was this german shepherd that I SWEAR winked at me. Kevin said I was crazy (negotiable comment) but I am not even joking this dog looked at me and winked! It was so sad though bc I wanted to take all of them home and care for them. However, sadly enough there were no dogs that currently fit Kevin and I's lifestyle needs. (We have a small apartment and we are gone for about 8 hours out of the day so it would just not be nice to bring a big dog or a dog that needs a lot of attention into our little world!)
We decided to head over and check out Best Buy which is directly across the street from the shelter. Shopping (FOR anything) always seems to help me forget about any sadness or problems in general. :-) So I buy Kevo a Wii and he buys me a new camera. We call them early X-mas presents for each other. (We like to live in the moment! :-)) Anyhoo, after getting home, we indulged in about 10+ hours of Wii play. It was great. I am seeking game suggestions so if you have any, please pass them on our way. Currently we only have the game that came with the console and a bonus Sports game that we got with the bundle package. And frankly, I'm not exactly smitten with either of them! What's a girl to do, though, right?!?! Right-O now, off to do some bowling... and I must say I'm a much better bowler in the virtual world!
