I love Labor Day weekend. Both the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival and the Soldier Hollow Classic (sheepdogs!) fall during Labor Day weekend, which are two of my favorite events, and THIS Labor Day weekend, I also went farming on Moo's farm. Kind of. If you call picking corn and playing Wii farming.
Moo introduced me to the Wii yesterday. We have one at the library for the teens, so it should naturally follow that, being a teen librarian, I would have had some previous experience with the Wii, but I did not. I'm not much of a video game fan, but I was extremely entertained by the Wii yesterday. There's a game that involves leaning right, left, or center to head soccer balls and avoid soccer cleats and panda heads (yeah, I don't know why it's panda heads) that are thrown at you. There's a sensor you stand on that detects the weight shift when you lean one direction or the other and moves your little avatar guy in the game. Inexplicably, I found this game HILARIOUS yesterday. I was playing, but I started laughing, causing my little video game guy to get smacked in the head with soccer cleats, which I then found even funnier, causing the game to seem more and more amusing to me and my playing to get worse and worse. I almost fell off the sensor. I did fall off the sensor when I was Wii ski jumping, so my little on-screen friend went tumbling down the ski hill. Alice showed me all the Wii sports, which I found less interesting, and Moo demonstrated Wii hula hooping, which, again, practically made me hysterical with laughter. Who knew I was so easily entertained?

I think I need to buy a Wii just so I can hear you laugh like you did Saturday. Man, that was funny. Both your laughing and the game. Wii Fit is definitely on the game list! :)
