donkey kong country

i am very tired today. last night my sweet girlfriend INSISTED that we stay up until ALL HOURS playing donkey kong because she "just wanted to get past this one level." i kept suggesting that we call it a night and climb into our warm soft clean freshly changed sheets bed, and my love kept looking at me with these mournful, precious-moments-looking eyes, as if to say "is my happiness not worth staying up just a little bit longer?" she started out on "snow barrel blast" with 30+ lives, and we played until they were all gone. she did not pass the level.

the last couple days have been kind of intense, donkey kong-wise. it is a great stress reliever -- mind-numbing entertainment at its finest. i did, however, catch myself humming the little ditty from jungle hijinx during a, how you say, intimate moment. inappropriate.

and yes, donkey kong is a super nintendo game. and yes, we own a super nintendo.
