Hello. My name is Leslie, and I am an addict.

I guess this would be my introduction to several clubs. Well, really only two. 1 -- The Tiger Woods 2005 Players Anonymous group and 2 -- The Paper Mario Players Anonymous group.

For Christmas I got Tiger Woods 2K5 from Justin (xbox version). Shortly after Christmas I started playing and was immediately addicted. I was up until 4am on both Saturday and Sunday nights this past weekend working to pick people off of my "Legend Pursuit."

While taking a hiatus from golf on Sunday night we went to Katie's to watch Napoleon Dynamite. It was OK, but while there I made a grand discovery... GameCube. Thank you Brandon. It was the first time I had played one, and I must say -- I have also become a Nintendo addict since Mom & Dad got me the Super Nintendo for Christmas. I swear - I need to become a member of Video Gamers Anonymous. Well -- we got back from Katies, Justin went to bed and I got weary eyed playing TW2005. The next morning, 9am I guess, Justin tells me, "Hey, I am going out to run some errands." I respond, "Ughh, let me sleep." (How uncommon.) So -- maybe 2 hours later I roll out of bed and zombie-like make my way to the TV to play golf. I was into a round about 5 holes when I looked at the middle of the living room floor and wham -- there was a GameCube, extra controller, three games, and a note from Justin. Hella sweet, but I thought - Damn, I must be out of it not to have seen that. - When in the hell did that get there? - Shit, I don't know how to hook this up without him. Naturally, I called for assistance. Justin was on his way home and advised me to finish my round of golf and we would tackle the GC when he got there.

The three games were Mario Kart: Double Dash, Super Mario Sunshine, and Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. I had played Mario Kart at Katies, and since I was on a golf kick we tried Mario Golf first. It didn't go over too well, but Mario Sunshine did. After I played for awhile Justin and I had to carry some stuff to the dump (boxes and such), so we went by EB games to exchange the Mario Gold game. I picked up Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door and Justin grabbed Dragon Ball Z: Boudaki. It is after this that I joined Paper Mario Players Anonymous.

The thing is that Xbox only has a few titles I am really interested in. I am more into adventure games where there is a story that goes along with things, and the GameCube offers that because Nintendo makes those kinds of games. :) No matter what though - I am going to bed EARLY tonight. I have not been sleeping worth poo, and I intend for that to stop.

So, to everyone - have a great day! THANK YOU JUSTIN!!!

Gob! Gob!
