I’m supposed to be in the office making up hours today, and I had intended to get up early and go in and get it done, but when I woke up I was still tired and it was raining and I just couldn’t do it.  As long as the hours are in before midnight, I’m good.

Can I tell you a secret?

I cheated on something – the Wii.

I was worried about weight gain from the past couple of months of sheer laziness/holidays and instead of facing the Wii fit telling me how awful I’ve been, I decided to delete my Mii and data and start over.  Actually, I deleted the Mii, then realized it didn’t delete my data from the fit, just replaced my Mii that looked like me with a blonde. So I deleted the data.

Imagine my surprise when I stepped on the balance board for the first time in two months, and my weight was the same as it was the last time I was on it.  I guess my feeling of gaining is mostly just in my head.  No matter, I feel out of control.

I’ve been ignoring the Wii (and the laundry, and mopping) in favor of Farm Town and Farmville on Facebook.  I caught myself planning the harvest of my crops around my recent travel schedule, and realized that the farming was taking up a lot of time in the morning and evening and for what?  I’m not earning money from it, and it’s not making me any more fit, so enough is enough.

I hope you are having a restful weekend.
