So, since I am of course, totally into New Year's Resolutions and I always keep them and would never have abandoned that practice sometime around my 12th year of life, I naturally made a list of uber-ambitious resolutions including whipping my mushy, toneless, amoeba-like body into shape. (Not that I'm not already a pinnacle of fitness, of course... um.) Indeed, I'm so ambitious I would never turn to something as kitschy as Wii Fit to help me
Right. Anyway. That is also NOT my cup of coffee in the background - everyone knows that exercise requires one to hydrate with water and NOT coffee. For that matter, I may as well inform you that there would NEVER be Cheet-o crumbs on my Wii board that fell off my shirt while I was doing yoga. Never. For shame!
Also part of that huge list of resolutions that of course I made is a dedication to conservation. Though, I understand, as a former Prius driver, naturally I am already near perfection in this endeavor, there is always room for improvement. So I'd never consider using bath-time as a way to occupy the kids, even when they aren't dirty because that would be a waste of water and natural gas and a $300 utility bill is not worth the 45 minutes of relative peace I get out of a bath.
Finally, you'll all be shocked to know that yes, I too, occasionally have a less than perfect house so I've added to my resolutions a devotion to maintaining a meticulous household. This in no way will be an easy task since I'll actively need to search for things to improve upon, obviously. But rest assured that I wouldn't ever assume I was fulfilling that goal by using an entire box of baby wipes to scrub down my couch after I found a snot-spot on it and deciding that it was time to try to de-baby-bodily-function-ify the furniture. I mean, clearly my couches are already perfectly spotless and such mediocre cleaning practices would go against several of my afore-mentioned resolutions, not to mention my already-superior nature.
Don't worry, I'm also never sarcastic.

Some great "not me" stuff!
hmmm I have not thought of getting the extra calories with my Wii Fit that way! great idea...
I also have three kiddies age three and under! well little miss Drama Queen is turning four on Wednesday, so I guess that will no longer be true then.
Too funny about letting your kiddo play for you on the Wii! If we had one, I would probably do the same thing:)
LOL Love the "false progress" on the Wii...I had to sell mine so I would feel less guilty everytime I saw it sitting over in the corner all by itself collection dust.LOL Happy Monday!
Great post!! :)
My MIL and SIL just got a Wii Fit- they say it reprimands you if you don't do it enough? If so, let J use it as a drumstick or hammer or something;)
I also have largely unattainable resolutions. Showering and dressing daily? Not happening in the least.
Love,
C:)
I wouldn't even get on our Wii Fit board once I found out it weighs you. I really didn't want to take criticism from a piece of plastic.
