Rob found out there were going to be 23 available at a nearby Circuit City so we dragged ourselves out of bed at 6:15am, picked up coffee at Starbucks (peppermint mocha &#8211; heaven!), and then found ourselves in line at 6:45am. WE ARE CRAZY. We were close to the front of the line so we figured we were guaranteed a console. Too bad Circuit City didn&#8217;t open until 10am and we had 3 hours to wait to find out for sure. AND it was totally freezing outside! OMG. But surprisingly the wait went by quickly (mostly due to the nearby McDonald&#8217;s and Barnes and Noble for food and a bathroom, lol) and at 15 minutes to 10am, we got our vouchers. I was #15 (we each bought one &#8212; one for us and the other as a favor for a friend)! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>The Wii is technically Rob&#8217;s Christmas present from me but I couldn&#8217;t torture him and make him wait until then to open it. We&#8217;ve set it up and played a few of the Sports games&#8230; it&#8217;s fun! I beat him at bowling (hehe) but he killed me in tennis and boxing. When we were playing tennis, I got all into it and I totally wacked Rob in the arm as I was swinging the remote. BWAH. We couldn&#8217;t stop laughing after that. I can&#8217;t wait to try the Zelda game.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, we also got our Christmas tree! Woot! It smells so good in our apartment with the tree in here. Mmmm. Now it&#8217;s definitely the holidays. I&#8217;ll have to take pictures once it&#8217;s all decorated.<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230; a meme I stole from <a href=\"http:\/\/iridescentglow.livejournal.com\" target=\"_blank\">Nicola<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b>10 Things Currently On Your Desk<\/b><br \/>\n1. iPod Nano<br \/>\n2. iPod speakers<br \/>\n3.
