Blame it on the flu

So I have been sick for the last two days, well truthfully I am still rather under the weather, so all I have done is stay in bed or on the couch playing video games.  Well there was a problem with that, my husband and son where home as well, being the weekend and all, so I found myself without a computer to play on (we only have 2).  Normally I would hop onto the WiiU and play, but I have finished all the games I want to right now and there is only so much Mario Kart 8 one can play (a lot...but there is still limits), so I stole my son's 3DS and started playing Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon.  What a fun game. The game is absolutely beautiful, but also very fun and even a little challenging for this old lady.  I admit it, I have died a few more times than in respectable, so I will blame it on the flu. Luigi's Mansion reminds me of all the fun I've had playing any number of the Super Mario Bros games as a child and I am looking forward to playing more of it today.  I am about half finished the game, but unlike when I was a child I have things I need to do today, sick or not, so I will play in between loads of laundry and cleaning the kitchen.
Oh I should also make supper at some point...I wonder what Luigi would want.

Highballs, Hairdos and Health potions

Hey everyone!
Today I want to share with  you a new passion of mine, a video game called Don't Starve.  It is this fun survival game where your main purpose is not to starve.  Sounds simple, but it is not really.  I am not sure why I like it so much, mainly because it presents a challenge to me in my otherwise routine life right now.  I am constantly trying to top my number of days survived.  Right now my highest is 58 game days.  It's tough.  It is one of those games that you can be 10 game days in and then you die and you need to start back at the beginning, with nothing on day one.
Here is a link to my YouTube video of me starting a Let''s Play series of Don't Starve and you guys can check it out for yourselves.
