Snow Day!

About twice a year or so, the network goes down where I work. Being in a satellite office, this pretty much takes out any ability we have to do anything productive.

It really is kind of like a snow day for us. We get up and wander out of our cubes, rubbing our eyes and looking around. We start wandering the hallways talking and laughing and having a good time. We'd go sledding, but we can't quite get the cube walls angled enough to give us a good start.

It only lasted for an hour and a half this time around, but it's occasionally nice to get up, talk and get to know the chuckleheads that work around me every once in awhile.

The more I hear about and see the WiiFit the more I want it. The mere thought of a snowboarding or skiing game where you steer by leaning excites me in borderline wrong ways. SSX game + WiiFit board = Happy Chris. The Wii is truly becoming the party console of choice.
