beer on ice

Or perhaps deer on ice?
Ice skating and beer that is what I call a nice after work. After that one hour on the ice two weeks ago I actually felt quite comfortable with the guy skates on the ice. It is surprising how fast you catch up with something you have done a lot as a child. Then it is always hilarious to see people standing for their first time on ice with a pair of skates. Like one of our Indian coworkers shouting like a girl when almost about to fall. But he made it around three times without falling though.

After the ice skating we of course had to go for a beer or two to warm up. It was a nice evening with the gang. They are really cool. I am glad to have such good and funny coworkers and they make everyday at work a ball.

i love costume parties

One plan was to go home this weekend. But after a busy weekend I just feel like staying in town and not start traveling and being busy yet another weekend. Also got a meeting with the boss on Friday that I need to stay for. Since I am in town I have a fastelavn party to look forward to on Saturday. Which is the Danish version of carnival which I did not know they had. I am guessing it is not as big as in Germany or other countries though. So I need to figure out something to wear since it is a costume party. Thinking of something like flower power or disco. Or just going all colorful with all kinds of attributes. Colorful makeup, fake eye lashes and perhaps a feather boa. So the theme may just end up being color.

long time no see

A lovely weekend it was indeed. My babe Lois invaded town and my apartment for a long weekend. The whole Thursday felt like Friday and i decided to take that even further and took Friday off. So I did get two Fridays last week. The weekend was all about relaxing, having fun, catching up and everything else. We did some shopping and also got to see some new sights in town. Got to see a really nice view over Copenhagen from Rundetårn and it is also a nice walk up walking in a spiral.

Unfortunately she picked the wrong weekend to see any of my friends. Since some where out of town and the others were sick. Better luck next time. But of course we still had a good time and as all other weekends it passed way to fast and I soon had to start preparing for work again.

See you soon again honey.

a different pirate

So now thepiratebay.org is blocked for access here in Denmark. I read that previously it was blocked for a while due to child pornography. Not because of the copyright protected sharing of media. Whether that was the truth one can discuss.

Now has the Danish court decided that the companies providing internet need to stop their customers' access to the site. So now are the governments trying to decide for us. Like that is going to stop people when there are millions of other sites out there.

i want two fridays this week

It is Friday.
Well, at least in my mind. Of course I am not that lucky. One more day. But at least my honey is arriving today so I will be able to gossip with her when I am done with work.
I did manage to keep my apartment fairly neat. I just had a few things to clean up, of course some clothes lying all over and some dishes. At least my place should look a little bit decent when my guest arrive. Even though she has seen how messy I can be.

However, I cleaned up my used clothes but now instead I got clean clothes hanging all over. I finally did my laundry, which was really necessary. I got to the laundry machines yesterday evening just in time because there was a guy there trying to steal my machine. That is not nice. But at least he was cute. So he is excused.

pirates

Who wouldn't like a pirate like Jack Sparrow.

this thing called love

I like being single. But some people apparently think that it is not good enough to enjoy life by yourself. I like living by myself. I like taking one day at a time and just worrying about myself. I like going to bed whenever I want and coming home whenever I want. I like to not have to worry about the clothes all over my bedroom or dishes in the sink. Because once in a while you get the typical question, phrased with different words: so do you have a boyfriend?/how's your love life going?/you've been seeing anyone lately? etc. I am not looking for it anxiously. If it happens, it happens. My life is good with it or without it. So that is not enough for you? Well it is enough for me and that is all that counts.

senior

It is only 8 p.m. and I am totally ready for bed already. It just feels wrong somehow. But I am going to need it. Saturday was a long day. I finally went ice skating at Kongens Nytorv in the city center in the afternoon and then we headed straight for a dinner and party at a friends place. It was a lot of fun and we were a couple of people that ended up sleeping over. It was a really nice night but with not much sleep at all. After a great, very needed, brunch at Stella I finally got to go home and I fell asleep in the sofa almost right away. I think I slept three hours before waking up but I am still so incredibly tired.
I feel old.

communication is everything

My honey was kind enough to inform me that it is next week she is coming and not tomorrow. We are very good at the concept known as communication :). So now I need to survive valentine's day without her. At least I have now got a clean apartment. Lets hope I can keep it that way until next week. It will be tough and I will fight my hardest.

Now it is time for bed. I should have at least one day this week when I go to bed at an reasonable hour. I have to get some sleep so I can manage my Danish class. My last Danish class. Well, at least for this round. I told my teacher I would be up for the next and last round as well. We Swedes and Norwegians only have two classes of six weeks each. After that we are apparently supposed to be all prepped for the Danish language.

my long lost babe

My long lost babe is coming to Copenhagen on Thursday. It is about time we meet again since last time was beginning of June last year. Will be nice to have a dear old pal around for a few days.

That is one thing that is missing around here to make my life better. Someone that knows me inside out and understands. Someone to go shopping with. Someone to eat fatty, hangover pizzas and gossip about last night with. Someone to watch tv with when you are bored.

It is all those small things I miss here. All those small things that makes your life better.
