lunch

There is nothing wrong with having a bit of wine for lunch. At least not if you have some food with it. Should I cook something?

It is not a sign of alcoholism when you sit at home drinking by yourself.

billy once again at the oscars

Got kind of stuck with Youtube and listening to old music. There is so much fun out there that you had totally forgotten about. Then I ended up with the Academy Awards intro of Billy Crystal from 2004.

That year when I lived in the US and we watched the whole show live at my friend F's place. We took it very seriously and had even printed out these papers where we marked who we thought would win. It was a good night. Due to obvious reasons (time difference) I do not think I have never seen the whole show since then.

Loving this intro. Especially 1.43 minutes into the clip.

Ok, come on now. Time to get serious. Stop youtubing.

stylish as only swedes can be

One more.

Style appearing in Melodifestivalen 1986. Don't we all wish that those hairstyle should come back? I know I do.

I can't help wondering how much greater the ozone hole became after creating her hair style.



Although their old song is a classic.
Their new song of 2009 you can't stop playing over and over again. Neither can you stop playing the video again and again. And again.

no more sunday blues

Well, at least not in the nearest future. I can tell you that it feels good. Several Sundays during the spring I had the Sunday blues disease. When I just wanted to keep being awake to keep Monday as far away as possible. It has been a while now since I had those feelings, almost forgot about how unhappy I was at my job. But that is one good asset of mine, I do not dwell. I morgon är en annan dag as Christer sang (tomorrow is another day). He is very emotional. Just look at his hand gestures. So touching.



Even though he came in second to last in the Eurovision Song Contest he is our true schlagerbög.

quality movies

Good old Hot Shots is on TV. Don't you just love it. It is so silly that I cannot stop laughing.

We had the two Hot Shots movies recorded on VHS when I was young. I have no idea how many times I watched them.

shake that booty

Hilarious every time.

Do as Beyonce and put a ring on it


It is the guys from the Swedish blog 365 saker du kan göra (365 things you can do) that show you how you can make your own warm-up.

who's digging it?

I am imagining the moment where Mr Rosengren came up with the logo for his company. He and his friends (sweaty from the summer heat and with big beer bellies from all the beer during the years) are sitting in someones garden drinking beer. The macho guys with that special jargon joking around.

Then they get the brilliant idea. They have the tagline 'we dig also for you', Rosengren asphalt and paving, so hence they of course need a picture of a finger digging (picking) one's nose.

Bull's-eye!

in the air

Here is where I spend a few minutes today. In the Wheel of Copenhagen. Although I am a bit disappointed, Copenhagen from above and at night is nothing special really. You do not see much at all, the city feels kind of dark looking from above. Perhaps it would have been nicer by day. At least one other thing to cross of the list of to-do things.

So a dinner with friends, Wheel of Copenhagen, and then some fabulous drinks at Oak room. One of my favorite cocktail bars in Copenhagen. Now I can sleep well. With a Venezuelan Butterfly in my stomach.

late sweet tooth

From now I am not allowed to comment on someone arriving late to the gate. Sitting at the cafe with my cookie just having sent my previous post. Realizing 15 minutes to departure that it is 15 to departure. I started running. Of course the other flight's gate is in the new wing me the airport. I ran and I made it. Two people coming in after me and then boarding was completed and we took off. Who am I to judge who is arriving late at the gate.

sweet tooth

Came to the airport knowing that I might not get on the flight since I booked standby. I was just sitting waiting for everybody to board, reading my book eating my muffin. I was told that the flight was basically full so no hopes from my side. Them they called my name! One guy had not showed up so I got his seat. However, two minutes later they asked me to step outside, the man had appeared. Who appears at the gate five minutes before departure? Anyway, they told me that I could sit in the back on one of those fold down chairs. I made myself comfortable. Two minutes later the stewardess came to me and said I had to get off the plane due to weight over balance. Little me made the plane to heavy? (Unfortunately I am not that little anymore...) So I got off and they listed me on the next flight, luckily that was in one hour and I will definitely get a seat. What surprised me though was that they gave me a service check of 50 SEK, not much but something. Travelling with staff tickets I would never expect something like that. So now I am on my second sweet thing today, a chocolate chip cookie.
