Last night, had to accept that I can never again yell, nag or complain about my boyfriend spending countless hours on his XBox. I woke up yesterday morning with that relieving feeling of knowing I was off from work. I made my morning coffee and updated all my websites as I always do. Yet afterwards, I decided to take advantage of my boyfriend being at work ... and play some XBox!
I started my Soul Calibur journey at 10am. Shortly after, I found myself slouching in my chair, feet up on the entertainment center, cursing at the TV, and occasionally even throwing my cigarettes and/or lighter across the room. Everything, in essence, I make fun of him for. It was 6pm before I even realized what I was doing and only when he had called to be picked up from the train station!
"Daaaaam! Where did my day go?" I was shocked. Had I turned into a "gamer" overnight? Is it possible to be a gamer when you only play one game? I don't know what I was more upset about, the fact that I had wasted an entire day playing a video game or the fact that I knew I could no longer bitch at him for doing it!
Almost a full 8 hours on ONE video game. I managed to rack up thousands of points (yet like a true female, I spent almost all of it on new characters, new weapons and of course, different outfits for each character!) I unlocked new powers and stages, all of which I spent an hour telling him about when he got home. After he laughed at me for that entire hour ... he played with me and all the new characters I had created!
The point of the story is this.... Ladies, instead of nagging your boyfriend to get off the console ... jump in a play a game or two with him. You never know, you may actually like it! and, I promise, it will make his day =)
