Another movie, Nintendo Wii, between jobs..

Yeah..

There's lots of things going through my mind right now. I mean, lots of things has happened, and everything's changing. A change to the better, is of course what I'm hoping for. Anyways, it couldn't really be anything else but a change for the better, because my forearm was in a pretty messy condition, so I couldn't have held on anyways.

Now what? Not much. Right now I'm selling subscriptions for monthly lottery tickets, this over the phone. Today Thuesday I managed to sell my first(!) ticket. Someone in a wealthy suburb to our great capital bought herself a subscription. Hope she wins the great grand million, so that I can feel I've done something good.

Anyways, I've also tried the still sort of new gaming console Nintendo Wii. It was really cool. My friend Johan took me to his place over lunch, and he told me that he had just bought the console with a bounce of games and various accessories. So, I got to try Mario Kart Wii aswell as Wii Sports. The first game, Mario Kart, in where I were supposed to navigate my cart through a plastic wheel that you sort of layed to the regular control device into. Well, it worked. I navigated my cart from point A and straight(?) away over the finish line. Wow! I did not end up in the last position. On the other hand, I didn't come 1:st either, but Johan is the gaming maestro so that's his thingie ;) Afterward, when we played Wii Sports, I actually won(!) a set of tennis. Don't ask me how, I just did it. It was real fun, just bashing the arm (attached to the control device) in the air. Such respons. Like Johan said - quite a whistle for a gaming machine. Really brilliant with the whole navigation control. It really follows your moves. Wow!

Anyways, me and my beloved fiancé has also watched another movie. This was a great film. I was so sick and tired of all them slaughter movies so I could just puke. This was sort of a family/drama flick. The plot? About four orphan boys; four real good friends, sort of like brothers. They get to go on some sort of vacation with a couple from a little village near the sea. There, lots of things will come to happen. Each of these four kids has a great wish - of course, getting adopted.. Well, I won't spoil the movie but it was really great so you should go see it.

Else than that? Well, not much. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, my bike (my transport vehicle, hobby, for-a-better-environment-supporter, etc) is temporarily out of order. How come? A flat, of course. Happened when I least expected it. It always does, right? Anyways, today I made up a decision, a rather tough one, really. The rear tire was in a real bad condition, the man in the local store told me, so it really needed to be replaced by a new one. Hmmm. So, everything: tire, tube, plus their work (I'm afraid I'll wreck the new tube if I try to do it myself). It all ended up on almost SEK 500. Awergh, like my economy wasn't bad enough already? Yeah yeah, I'll live. Today I'll go to the LBS and pick up my piece of machinery - locked and ready to rumble the streets again, hrhr..

Well, I've taken the local bus to and from work for two days nows, and it feels neither economical nor healthy. I have all this energy, see.. :-)

Caio!
