I thought my wife was joking when she said this to David. We got him an X-box 360 for Christmas, but secretly joked that it will be a box with Xs all around it.
We’ll upload his reaction when he sees THIS box in the morning.
My friend Pinguino decided that we should be zombies for Halloween at work.
So… some makeup (latex, tissue paper and makeup) and some fake blood (corn syrup, red food color, peanut butter, and chocolate) later.. and we’re zombies!!!!
I also made a trip to Best Buy in makeup and freaked out the customers there. (I bought a computer, so I was a customer
)
Ok, I shouldn’t call it a “Roman” Candle. It’s actually called a California Candle, made by TNT Fireworks. It’s close to a roman candle in size, but doesnt shoot out the large balls of fire like the true roman candle. I have some pics of it up on my Flickr account. It was a 2 pack for like 6 bucks. I only got the one set, because I thought it wouldn’t be that good, but I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll have to get more of those next year.
With the way my work schedule and transportation is (sorry MTA, but train travel after 6 blows), I don’t get much time to go to the gym for a proper workout. I’ve decided to wake up an hour earlier, take a good walk and give the Wii Fit a try. I started on Friday night and got a decent 30 minute workout where I actually sweated. Doing their boxing routine, the hula hoop (like I can do a hula hoop in real life), the basic step and the basic run (where I ran in a circle because I kept moving too close to the TV).
I think if I keep it up I should get some decent results eventually, provided I lay off the burgers and red meat.
