In The Beginning

there was a Wii. Although, technically, it was Christmas 2011, but spiritually it was indeed the beginning.

Yes, there was a Nintendo Wii, and I saw that it was good. The Balance Board, Wii-motes, and other accoutrements were also good. And rather over-whelming in their entirety, as they were all a gift to me from my family, thanks to a friend of my sister's timely selling of one she no longer used.

It was also time for a change, for you see, I was fat. No, not just fat; I was enormous, and had been all my life, and I finally realised I needed to re-create myself anew.

But you don't need the full story just now, or what else will I have to write about in the future?  

Hello world, here's my blog, and don't mind me if I blurt out the entire reason for its existence in one post. 

Pff, where's the writing fun in that? 

So there we are in the beginning, the Wii and I. And lots of I. But we needed less of I, or at least I did, (I suspect the Wii didn't have very strong feelings one way or the other) and I knew just how to get started...
