Nintendo on a Mac

Have you ever thought back to your youth when you used to play Nintendo games and they were the coolest thing? Well I still like to sometimes play these old games such as burger time, monopoly, digger, etc and when I broke my ankle and my husband realized that I was going to have quite a bit of free time on my hand he set me up with a way to play all of the old Nintendo games on my Apple Computer. The system is free here: http://bannister.org/software/nestopia.htm and then to get the games you go to the Old Computer.Com . Now mind you they are the old style games but I still think they are fun and challenging in their own way! Try it out if you want I am now that I have so much time! :)

Broken Ankle

Filed under: General, Health Related — Christi at 6:22 pm on Tuesday, May 23, 2006

Well I had some excitement this past weekend. I was helping my brother move out of his place after he graduated. My mom and I were moving a mattress down the stairs and I thought I was down all of the stairs and I wasn’t. I missed one and my left ankle twisted and sprained slightly and my other ankle went snap crackle pop! I knew instantaneously that it was broken. I helped that there was a huge bump! So in Eau Claire they did Conscious Sedation and set my foot. They said I wouldn’t remember but I remembered them setting it although it was dulled thank goodness. Then I got put on pain medication and we drove back from Eau Claire to our Hometown of Waconia. There I got checked into the Ridgeview Medical Center where the next morning I had surgery. Apparently I broke all three bones possible in my ankle. Talented I am. So now I’m on pain pills and off from work for a week. I’m going to be going stir crazy I have a feeling. Any good websites that any one is aware of to waste time I would appreciate.
