Ouch! My first Wii injury

Well, I'd like to think my injury wasn't completely caused by playing on the Wii, but it certainly didn't help...

I played basketball down the street last Monday and must've thrown out my shoulder (it's bad from me separating it a bunch of times in high school football). So then I got Strikers Charged the next day, and played for like 5 hours.

All the flailing must've really made my shoulder worse, because since Wednesday it's been throbbing and getting worse. By Saturday, I could barely raise my arm!

Thankfully, it's much better today. I think I slept on it wrong with a new pillow I got last week. So all these weird things added up to make my shoulder hurt like hell!

Anyway, while being incapacitated, I've severely slacked on my chores. I have a mountain of dishes to do and really need to wash laundry. Ick.

At least I got to play the N64 Paper Mario on the Virtual Console. It was pretty much the only thing I could do that didn't hurt my shoulder! I beat that today. What a great game.

And I got great news today: I'll be getting a free copy of Madden 08 to review for our newspaper. Yay me!

Now I just have to heal my shoulder, then play Transformers and Silver Surfer enough to write short reviews blasting how bad they are. I hate poorly done movie tie-in games :(
