Oh! I forgot the best (and geekiest) part!

My brother Nick has a set of pads for DDR, and a couple of the games, and I finally got to try it. Now, y'all know I'm not much of one for video games, but this was fun. And aerobic as all hell. Oooof.

I think I want Wiley to invest in a set of pads. If I like it as much as I did today, this could become like my aerobics, instead of paying for a gym. Whee.

It sure worked for Reo. He lost something like 60 pounds playing DDR.

A friend of mine did that, and got really into shape. I've been thinking of doing it myself. =)

That's cool and yet bizarre! I've heard of people getting into shape that way, tho, yeah.

Yeah! He's kind of like my inspiration =)

Seriously, especially on the harder levels, it was like aerobics. But without the embarrassment of having to dress up in spandex, and look like a clumsy fool in front of other people. And it was fun.

We ought pads, you can try it when they get here =)

I had a lot of fun. I was amazingly clumsy on the harder songs, but it was challenging and goofy, instead of frustrating. I don't think it'll be my only exercise, but at this point, anything that gets me off my butt has to be a good thing.
