Gauntlet Legends

This is a post in response to a special request from Jeanette for us to post more and specifically to post regarding our new video game. We went to the nickle arcade a couple of weeks ago and played Gauntlet Legends. Kristine liked it, so I hesitantly decided to buy the game for our futuristic Nintendo 64. We've been playing non-stop since. Kristine is currently a level 50 Valkarie and I am a level 60-something Menatour. I have no idea how to spell either of those things, but the game is fun. I have pictures but can't figure out how to get them from the camera to the computer.
We also went to IKEA today. That was pretty cool. We ate Swedish meatballs and macaroni, which was good. I've decided that we want a queen size bunk bed with the bed on top and one of those chucky cheese ball pits underneith, I think it will work out really nicely.
We also bought this weird Swedish back stretching thing. It's kind of weird but really cool too. You have to sit on the ground and tie these things to your wrists and ankles, then this machine slowly tightens them so you're like getting pulled apart. It hurts a bit, but it's a nice stretch for the most part. They sell attachments that are supposed to help with your pain threshhold, like a "tac-bed" which is esentially a bed of nails that you lay on while the thing stretches you, but I think that would be way to painful. The stretching thing seems bad enough. . . I scanned in one of the warnings from the instruction booklet.

IKEA products are so cool.
