Can't sleep, can't eat... Nervous, worried, excited...

It's the day we've all been waiting for... Well, not yet. Tomorrow. Well, not tomorrow. Sunday. But tomorrow I will be waiting in line at WalMart, waiting to get my hands on the Nintendo Wii. And tonight. Tonight, I feel like vomitting. I can't eat. I can't sleep. How am I going to work tomorrow during the day? How am I going to work next week??? HOW? Nintendo, why did you have to do this?! I have not been excited about a console launch since... Super GameBoy, and that was just a console accessory, not really a console. And now, after all these years, I have excitement, anxiety, and something bad. Nervousness. Fear.

I am nervously afraid that I won't get a Wii tomorrow. Sunday. Whatever, it's all just one big day from now until the end of Sunday. I should not be this excited or nervous over a game system, but I am. It's strange... But I am.

I don't even know what game I will get, because I can only afford one game (or maybe, maybe a second game) and a controller and the console itself. This is with money that I have been saving since the summer. With Christmas coming, I can't put any part of my regular paychecks aside - it's tight as it is, but buying gifts for others is important, especially at this time of year, y'know. I'll be happy with just Wii Sports, so my wife and I can play bowling, boxing, etc. all without her breaking a nail, or me breaking a sweat. Well, maybe I will sweat a little.
