It has been 17 days since I’ve worked out on the Wii Fit. I thought it was about time to set foot on my favorite smart-ass board again. I wondered if it missed me. It’s not that I haven’t been working out. Just doing different activities.

The Wii Fit does allow you to log outside activities and I was prepared to tell it that I wasn’t being a total slacker. I was just seeing other exercises.

It’s not that I don’t like my Wii Fit anymore. I just need other activities to keep my interest in working out. Really Wii it’s not you, it’s me!

The Wii wasn’t upset with me at all. In fact it was very caring…

But it wasn’t long before it was up to it’s old sarcastic ways…

ha ha, I get it. You haven’t seen me in such a long time that you forgot my name, ha ha. You know what Wii? Maybe if you were a little more understanding, I wouldn’t have to turn to other excercises. You ever think about that Wii?

The treadmill? It understands me! It gets me. It doesn’t call me names or use passive-agressive tactics to get me to workout. You’re only hurting yourself here!

Alas, who am I fooling. I’ll be back. I always come back. Especially now that you’ve got a new snowboarding game and that game that you play with your ass. I can never stay mad at you for too long.

Is it possible to be in an abusive relationship with a video game?

As I’ve mentioned in a previous posts, I haven’t been feeling well lately. I have a cyst on my ovaries that is causing me a lot of pain. Therefore I haven’t been able to workout. And therefore I haven’t seen my wii fit in a while.

I was nervous about how the wii fit was going to react to my absence. I was very fearful that’d I’d get a lecture and that the wii fit would call me a fat pig. I contemplated briefly as to whether I should provide the “game” with a doctors note to explain my situation. But the wii fit didn’t give me a lecture or call me names. It simply decided to take a passive-aggressive approach that reminded me a little too much like my mother. I’d say I got off easy. Whew!
