A Little Wii-modeling is in Order...

Well, we were able to add a new member to our family: the Nintendo Wii! It is a long tale, full of heartache, suspense, princesses and...

Well, not exactly.

My friend, Michael, let me borrow his Wii over Christmas while he visited his girlfriend's parents (with her, of course). The family came over and we had a great time playing bowling, tennis, baseball and boxing.

Well, to make a long story short...


My friend, Michael, is moving in with his girlfriend (go Michael!) and they both have Wii's. She offered to sell us hers if we were interested. Of course!

So we have to move some TVs around and figure out the optimal placement for the game systems. We have an Xbox 360 and it is hooked up to the big TV and the surround sound system. A system like the 360 deserves a TV that can show off it's graphical capabilities. Since the Wii only has SDTV and we have 4 gamers in the house, we will want the Wii on another TV with a lot of room to flail the Wii-mote. We will put the Wii in the playroom--but it has a 20" TV. The master bedroom has the 27" TV. So, we make the sacrifice and switch the TVs.

But...the dresser in the playroom might not be able to hold a 27" TV. So, does more furniture need to be involved? Can we put something smaller in the bedroom for the 20" TV and use the stand in the bedroom for the playroom? We plan on buying a new TV over the summer. Even though that is 6 months away, it will mean shifting TVs and furniture again.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

But I am not complianing. Not at all!
