Can video games really be this addicting?

Today was a very relaxing day. After a workout at the SLIC, a quick swim and lay out at the pool was nice. After lunch, the afternoon consisted of video games - although only a few hours, probably more than I have played in the last year combined. Seriously, can Mariokart 64 really be that addicting? It quickly reminds me why I removed counterstrike and other games from my computer, and why I don't have any video game systems of my own - although it was nice for a day. This evening a group of people here for the summer got together to eat BBQ at Uncle Dan's. It was great to those friends and also get to hang out with some guys! (Seriously, I love you girls, you know I do, but I could use some guy time for sure!) Tonight I worked a little bit on a scholarship application that has to be mailed on Wednesday and managed to make my room a little cleaner than when I started the day.

Tomorrow morning, my class starts, moving my workout routine to earlier in the morning I hope (8am!) - but I would rather get a good start, than have to eat up early afternoon hours at the SLIC instead of on other projects. We'll see how it goes!


Quick notes:

For the ladies:
1) Honesty is always nice.
2) Keep an eye on the guys you hang out with alone, and maybe their roommates too!
3) "Encouragement" is pretty hilarious. I can't thank Ben enough!
4) Girl time is understandable and should always be respected!

Liz quote of the day:

In response to being told about Chocolate Covered Strawberries BlueBell Ice Cream -
"I don't like strawberries... wait... Yeah I do! I don't know what I'm saying!"
