In favor of Marie making the purchase off an Xbox 360

Reason

#1 family unity

#2 as a use of a DVD player/Netflix movie watcher

#3 it helps improve hand eye coordination( which nurses need good hand eye coordination)

#4 playing halo on Friday night is much cheaper than going on dates to broadway every Friday night

#5 Xbox 360 has bomberman Nuffield said

#6 it will help aleviate stress

#7 meet new friends

#8 the kinnect system can be used like a gym

#9 you can use It wirelessly from across the room

#10 it can be used as a juke box

Only negative is you have to choose between white or black

:)

Jethro

My dog is pretty funny. He's part cat and part coyote. Because he doesn't care that much about peeing outside, he just goes wherever he darn well pleases. I don't think he's peed on his feet, but sometimes he pees on the carpet when I pet him. I don't recall ever wiping his feet. Sometimes he lays down on my keyboard when I'm trying to type or chases the moving cursor on the screen. He also growls at reflections on my bedroom wall and tries to capture them with his tiny cat paws. I love him.

Dorian

My dog is pretty funny. Because we no longer have out own backyard, Dorian has to wait inside all day then be taken out on a leash. So the other day I came home after being gone a few hours and he has to pee sooooooo bad, I put on his leash and we are "walking" down the steps and he just can't hold it any more, he running and peeing at the same time. Funnier thing is that he was peeing on his own feet while walking and trying to squat at the same time. What is not funny is that I had to wipe off his feet before I let him back inside....

Life is pretty nice in Sacramento :)

So it is close to a month since Mark and I have moved in and it has been pretty exciting. I love having my own kitchen, even though Christine was right and I really didn't know how many dishes only two people could possibly make! I was nervous about driving in Sacramento because I haven't really driven outside solano county... Haha. But I picked up our neighborhood fairly quickly (I have even given Mark directions!)

Our ward is nice, it has been described as a "newlywed and nearly dead" ward though. And it seems that everyone our age has children. Mark and I were excited the second Sunday to sit next to the newest couple in the ward who invited us over for games and dessert. I though"wow this is going to be great! She is my age and has no children!" But when we were there and having visited for a while the subject of children came up, and apparently she is about 2 months pregnant.... Darn.

I got Mark this cool iPad2 and mark found this app that allowed us to have the "Martineau Family Blog" on the home screen :) so we should have no excuse for not keeping up!

Halo night!!!!!

I wanna be like Matt

So I went and had an interview with the chair of the mechanical engineering dept. and so now I am officially a mechanical engineering major. :)

Our new apartment is great I have the golf balls from everywhere I've played and sold balls to me it look s pretty awesome, they are in the case that my wifey made me, I know you haven't seen it Marie but it is pretty cool looking, I really wanna go to visit Marie in NY befor landed graduates so, everyone we need to road trip,

On other thoughts I have really grown fond of avocados, they were three for a dollar at save mart, so we eat them a lot currently.
