More Games, Less Me, More Baby

I have the following games on reserve at Electronics Boutique:

> Guitar Hero II
> World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade
> World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade (Misty's copy)
> The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (For the Wii)
> The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (For the Gamecube)

I need to cancel that last one. I've been trying to get in a reservation for the Wii, but nobody is offering them yet. I may end out hanging out in line at Target or (shudder) Wal Mart.

I'm back on my diet again. Finally reaching the dizzying heights of 320 pounds, I found new resolve. The only difficulty is that Misty can't diet with me, seeing as how she's in the family way. Still, it has worked well. I've been on the diet for 10 days this time. As of my last weigh-in on Monday, I've lost 5.2 pounds. I expect to drop at least 3 this week. By the end of October, I should be under 300 again, which will be a comfort.

Misty's pregnancy is proceeding well. Little Kay (for that is her name) is already recalcitrant and stubborn, refusing to cooperate for sonograms or let her mother sleep through the night. She rails against her imprisonment by repeatedly punch and kicking Misty in the bladder. (If you want to see sonogram pictures, look at my web site.)

Speaking of Misty, she returns from a familial visit today, and I'm getting off work early to pick her up at the airport. I hope to get there early to partake of their free, high-speed wifi. Did I mention I had a new smartphone?

Current weight: 314.8 lbs

    Nice reserve list :)
    I didn't know they were making a GH2, I bet that will rock. I assume you'll get the Collector Edition of WoW:BC? You get another special pet! :) I can't bring myself to get too excited about it, I'm nowhere near 60 and that's what most of the content is for. I also don't need to roll yet another alt and join the bazillion people making the new races. I'll wait. Jef is hinting they're going to try out Phantasy Star Universe when it comes out anyway, so I may lose them a bit.
    I don't know how I feel about the Wii, it sounds interesting but I don't know if the gameplay would appeal to me. I'll have to try it out :) Haha if I didn't have work I'd wait with you for the Wii pre-reg.
    Grats and good luck with your diet :) I can never stick to much of one, I figure I don't eat that terribly or I'd be much worse. I try to change some of my worse habits but not make it torture.
    Glad Kay is just as stubborn as you guys :)
    Ooh, I didn't know TIA had free Wi-fi. Pretty slick phone!
