Art Imitating Life

Monique's mission at the Rune Factory 2 (Nintendo DS) game has stumped her for the past few weeks.  I understand that one has to press the "A" button at least 35 times in a span of 5 seconds to, get this--win a gastronomic eating challenge!  She can only achieve 26 presses, so she comes to me to ask for help.  I'm amazed at how, in this case, art imitates life... hehehe....  On my first try, I get to 24 presses, and I reach 35 presses on the second try...!  Yes, the feeling of success!  My deal with her--if I can win the prize for her, she has to sleep early, 12 midnight at the latest!  It's summertime and together with the Callars, they've been pushing 2 am on certain dates...  A big no no... This time, I win! ;-)
