washboard

I watched Berg flyttar in ('Berg is moving in') with Carina Berg today. She was 'moving in' with Marcus Schenkenberg in New York where he lives today. The male supermodel from the little country of Sweden. There is many fine guys in this small country. He is still darn good looking and does not look anything near the 41 years old he is.

it wasnt my fault

Woops.

I was just going to H&M to check if they had the dress I bought in a bigger size. And I ended up walking out with the dress unchanged and an additional H&M bag hanging on my arm. Containing two cardigans and a skirt. But at least they were on sale.

Then I went next door to Indiska. Since I managed to leave my new ring at the airport customs I wanted a new one. I ended up walking out with another ring (that looked almost as a favorite I broke a few months ago), a pair of earrings and three tealight holders (they were on sale).

Walking on Strøget on my way to the metro I look to my right and see a store not really visible. It says Søstrene Grenes and I have seen bags with that name and decide to go in. I have found a new store I really like. I guess it is a bit similar to Lagerhaus and STCKHM in Sweden. They have everything and nothing. And it is all cheap. Of course I ended up walking out from there with another bag on my arm.

Woops.

again. and again?

So what is wrong with my drain? It happened again. At least this time I did not have to do a toilet wash. Thankfully. I poured water with caustic soda in the drain as last time and I think I inhaled a bit to much of that nasty gas. No worries, nothing happened so in that sense it was not too much. But I started coughing and had to stick the head out of the toilet a couple of times. Eventually I got it all in the drain. The next morning it was working properly again.

So what? This is going to happen every four months? I should talk to the girl I am renting from and ask if she ever had this problem. Who knows if the caustic soda will help in the future. I do like being able to take showers.

easter is over

Vacation is over. Unfortunately.
It is back to work. Unfortunately.

Five days. Shopping a lot. Eating a lot. Good food, Easter egg filled with lots of candy, ostbågar, cake, wine. You name it. It was a lot of everything. And a lot of laziness and relaxing as it should be during vacation. It was great weather too which made it even better. Spring is finally here for sure and I can start taking of layers.

I came home on Monday and found my messy apartment just the way I left it. Unfortunately. My little elf apparently decided to stay in the loft this weekend and not clean my apartment. So I did a bit of that during Monday. And today was work. Unfortunately.

Three days until weekend. At least it is only four of those working days this week. And I need to plan my next vacation. It needs to be soon.

home sweet stockholm

Only three working days this week. Nice. And I left at three today so I had time to go home and then catch my flight. Nice chilling day.

Now I am looking forward to five days off from work. Yeay. Tomorrow it will be a whole day of shopping. I am now writing everything up on my list so I will not forget everything. Hopefully it will not get too long and expensive.

Now vacation.

Busy day it was. But we got homemade chocolate cake cause of R's birthday. And now there is only two more days of work! Good think that in Denmark you also have the Thursday before Easter off as well. Five days off holiday. Awoohoo!

i am in love

One day on my way to work I fell in love.
I was sitting on the bus and saw this girl. She had the most gorgeous handbag. I immediately felt that I needed to have it. Unfortunately I did not ask her where she bought it. I really regretted it. But I also remembered seeing it somewhere, either on a blog or somewhere else. So I thought I would be able to find it somewhere online. I just hopped that it was just a bag found in a junk store, but it did not look cheap so I had my hopes.

After some time of googling, looking through sites and blogs for pictures, I finally found it!


It is a bag from Marc by Marc Jacobs that came out during the fall. I love this black metallic bag. Sure, it would be the most expensive bag I would own. Usually I do not go for the expensive ones, but this one I got to have. And now, I can actually afford it.

my last couple of weeks

So I have been kind of off. My apologies. So what about a recap? Hmm, what has been going on?
  • I got tax money back. I hoped for as much as my coworker but I only got a 15th part of that, her case was strangely a lot of money.
  • I almost forgot to get the tax money. Got it on a check but made it to the bank on time.
  • Was at a Finnish pre-party and realized I do understand Finnish better than Danish. Sad.
  • Saw Watchmen at the movies. I do not recommend it. Awful. The only good thing was the popcorn and Bilar that J bought in Sweden.
  • Had chocolate fondue. However, they somehow screwed up the chocolate but it was a nice night and good fruits.
  • Spring is her. I can start using my spring jackets.
  • I have bought four pair of shoes in the last two weeks.
  • Was at IKEA some time back and bough stuff to make this place feel more like me. Finally got a lamp.
  • Continuously trying to start eating better. Not doing so well. Damn. I need to fit into some of my working pants again. Apparently at this point, that is not enough motivation.
  • Did not get a pay raise for next year. Partly me and partly the crappy times.
  • Started to love House and have now watched all five seasons. Love his sarcastic humor!
  • Was at a wine tasting on Friday. Then to another bar. Then to Grill bar, cool place, for another drink but ended up ordering food. I had grilled tuna, one of the best (and expensive) meals I have had in a long time.
  • My apartment is once again a mess. Ground zero.
  • Have decided to go home for Easter. Meet the family. And of course do some shopping.
