Points of interest

Point the First (1st): FINALLY got a Wii in my hot little hands. I had to wake up at 5AM, head over to the Nintendo Store, and wait for two and a half hours, but I have one. Picked up Zelda and the Rayman game with the console and an additional controller. I'm going to hold off touching it until this evening, so the bro and I can indulge when the younger ones are sleeping. Me = stoked.

Point the Second (2nd): TWoP is selling shirts from the past. If you've never checked out Glarkware and/or the Now or Never merchandise, this is the perfect time. I'm peeved the "Petrelli for Congress" shirts are sold out, but "Clex Appeal"? is so mine.

Point the Third (3rd): The plan is to check out "300" at Imax with the middle bro this afternoon. Oldest bro and youngest bro decided to be punks and sneak off to see it on their own this week, while I was at work and middle bro was off on his senior trip. Youngest bro's been screaming out "Spartaaaaaaa!" at random intervals ever since. I suppose that's young male for "two thumbs up".

Point the Fourth (4th): I had a patient on Sunday who desat'ed to around 73%. It was *the* most terrifying event I've had to work through to date. I'm pretty sure the Wii purchase, the Glarkwear shopping, and the movie plan all sprang from a need to make myself feel better and/or avoid thinking about how frightening my job can be. So much second-guessing of myself, and I spend so much time questioning my skills that I doubt my miniscule amount of self-esteem is up to the challenge. But...*deep breath*.

Have fun with the Wii! Expect your shoulder to be a little achy tomorrow; one usually doesn't use one's arms that much.

And enjoy 300! ^ v ^

*grin* The bros enjoyed the hell out of baseball, while I liked tennis but had a hard time coordinating my movements. I got really tired playing the Rayman Raving Rabbits game. It's crazy fun.

300 was pretty. The fighting was awesome. I sort of wish they'd just stuck with fighting. Everything with the wife got on my nerves.

Yeah, that whole thing just kinda bogged it down. But without it, there would've been no plot at all, so I'm torn on the matter.

And it's amazing how tired one can get playing Nintendo Wii. I played some tennis and bowling last night, and I was sweating and hot.

But it's SO much fun. ^ v ^
