The weekend

The weekend was quite great. Friday I went climbing. I found some more challenges I have to try out next time (most likely tomorrow) and really pushed myself trying to get up some walls. What better way to spend a Friday than going up and down walls. Saturday we palyed the dancing game at my bosses place. They had it on a playstation. Surprisingly it was not DDR but DanceUK. I was like "oh I hope the up and down arrows aren't the wrong way round". They are in some games. But it ended up there was no reason to fear that since the game was otherwise quite different. The arrows came like from the center of the buttons and like from the background. (If you get my meaning.) And if that was not enough there were extra arrows in use in the corners. So there were 8 places to step in all. I was getting kind of suspicious that I would not do that good and that it may not be fun at all since the dancing mat of course was not as good as the ones I have at home. (Well "no-one" has as good dancing mats as I have at home...) Oh but I tried it. It was not so bad with just the 4 buttons. With the 8 it was hard or at least to begin with. But it ended up being way fun in a challenging sort of way. I kept laughing while missing the buttons while trying to jump on the right ones and ending up somewhere else and then trying to do better. What fun! I think I will have to get a game with all the 8 buttons in it. (Oh and just to clarify, there was no alcohol involved.) The only problem with the game was that it was not so easy to see which button should be pressed next since the only way to see it was the size of the approaching arrow. But it was an old game so maybe in new versions they have gotten it better. Certainly with time it would get easier to see the arrow so maybe it is not such a big problem.

Sunday we went walking in the forest some 15 km from here in the hills. The weather was great. Sunny and like 9°C. In addition to my bosses dogs we had an extra one, Buddy, from her neighbor with us. Buddy was so funny. He kept gathering sticks and at most he had like maybe 6 sticks in his mouth. And the funny thing is that he kept gathering them when my bosses dog who loves fetching put them on the ground for me to pick up and throw. It seemed like the other dog was putting them down for the other one to pick them up. Team work. Right now my calf muscles are aching because of the dancing game and the walking but at least I know I did something. I just hope they are better by tomorrow for climbing.

Oh but I best get going home. I'm very hungry.
