WiiFit...what goes with that?

A beautiful new thing happened to me. It's called WiiFit. I've been a nut for the wii from the second I got my grubby mitts on one (and I was faaast about it! Bought it right in that 10-second window where people where thinking "i wonder if it will sell?"). As soon as I heard about the WiiFit I had it on pre-order. What is it? A sleek little white step block that can sense your weight shift. So if you liked the wii's ability to let you reach out and hit things....well, now you can kick stuff too. And hit soccer balls with your head. And tightrope walk. And hula hoop...
Okay thats the cool part. The uncool part? Me. Because out of all these snazzy options, my favorite is jogging. There's a cartoony island with a jogging path that loops past waterfalls, bridges, fields and towns. You can go at whatever pace you like, and while you are running other Mii's that you've created jog past or wave as you run by. I've made a Mii image for each of my real life friends. So whenever I feel like a quick jog, my sister does too. Her husband waves from a hillside, my best friend runs past in the wrong direction.. it's just awesome. Jogging has suddenly become enormously relaxing to me. Maybe I'll even lose weight! Um...if I stop drinking cocktails while I play.
