Well, I still haven’t gotten into bed again and my sleeping habits are just getting worse and worse. On Friday morning I have to get up at 07:00 to meet the girls at the train station. I know I am going to be very sleepy that day 🙁
At least I got the new Per Gessle album downloaded. I have only listened to a bit of and so far my favorite is Om du bara vill. I have always enjoyed Per Gessle. My all time favorite is Billy with Gyllene Tider.
Good night and Kiwotsukete ne.

For the first time in several weeks I haven’t been able to fall asleep. I tossed and turned and my mind was rumbling around work work related things. Hmmmmm…. So I went up and read some blogs and watched another episode of Friends (1×05). Now I feel really happy, not sleepy but happy 🙂 I feel a bit like Chandler after him drinking 8 espressos.
By the way, am I a blogaholic? I cannot stop reading all your lovely blogs, Anna, Angela, Håkan, Elin, Mark, Kalle, and many more! It feels like I am getting to know you all.
Kiwotsukete ne.

I just back got back town, after a several hour long shopping spree, ALONE. The longest ever in my life 🙂 I bought more stuff both for the house and for Johanna and Tovah than I can count from memory. I cannot say what as that would spoil the surprise when Johanna gets here.
I also got my Nanotechnology books today. 4 of them.
Ahhh, summer. I love the summer. The sun. The best part is being able to be outside all the time (when it is not too hot that is). Right now it is a bit cloudy and 22 degrees. The wind is blowing slowly and I am drinking the and eating grapes on the porch. Ahhhhh. Lovely.
Now it is only 3 days, 14 hours, and 52 minutes until my love returns.

I was sitting as a good boy chatting with Johanna. I had just finished my lunch and told her I was heading down town, and know what. IT STARTS RAINING. I hate rain……
No I have to stay inside instead.

Yesterday, I went for a long bike ride when it was as warmest (28 degrees!!). After about 17Km I stopped at OBS to buy some sour milk (filmjölk) and ended up buying food for 338:- including some unhealthy potato chips that I ate during the evening and in turn made my sick, uaaaaaahhhh. Too much fat. It is like a drug. I cannot stop while there are still some left in the bag. In total I biked about 30Km in the heat and I was really beat when I got home. During my ride I only saw completely normal people, not a single Gunnar. But then again it is hard to meet people when cykling. A whole bus of finish tourist waved to me though, that was fun 🙂 Why? Well, my bike isn’t the most normal. There are two in Luleå and my family has both 🙂
Dinner was left overs from the day before, my stew that I ate this time with rice. Yummy. It is the kind of dish that gets better each time you eat it 🙂
In the evening it rained for the first time in two weeks. It really poured down. The kind if rain you see closer to the equator, in Florida or Asia.
For once I got into bed in a decent time (midnight) and the reason was that Blipp (my main desktop) had gotten kranky (i.e. it crashed) and today I manage to conclude that one of the memory DIMMs is broken. DEEEEELLLLLL, give me a new one NOW. Pulled it out and now the machine spins on nicely.
After breakfast I am heading down town to buy a huge salmon and some presents. Hope they have a good price today.
Kiwotsukete ne!

As I wrote earlier today, “I Feel Good“, I headed out in the garden, cut the lawn, got rid of all the weed around my poor strawberries, cleared my second garden area and planted some seeds, and got hungry. Headed inside and ate my stew with cooked potatoes. Yes, I put some beans in it. Yummy 🙂
After the food I got really tired, hey I am on summer vacation and ended up before the TV again 🙂 Watched the rest of Pulp Fiction, Basic with John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson (boring), and Who Am I with Jackie Chan which was very funny and I can highly recommend it! Chatted a bit with Johanna (love you, my lemon pie :-), cleaned up in the kitchen, sorted today’s incoming movies (1.8GB per hour 🙂 and ended up with some Blog hacking (RSS, reading others etc.) and here we are at present time and I should have gotten into bed at least two hours ago.
All in all, it has been a very good day. Hmm, I think I will finish of the day with a short story from SexNovell.com 😉

It can be a tedious task to keep track of all Blogs that have changed and after reading “RSS i MovableType i Sverige” I decided that to test an RSS reader and SharpReader in particular. It is a rather convenient way to keep track of all the Blogs you are reading.

Yes, I do! I woke up 10:30, read some for an hour and got up around 11:30. Told myself that I would only start some music on my computer but got stuck there instead, started downloading some Beatles from a someone that had a big collection. Many old albums, both real and bootlegs. Right now I am listening to Beatles for Sale from 1964. Beatles are the best!!!! I feel good.
Felt rather pepped, took a shower, shaved and headed down to the kitchen. PIP PIP. Got a message from Johanna, YES, I didn’t hear anything from her all day yesterday and I was a bit worried that she was upset and angry with me. The reason for her absence from cyberspace wasn’t that at all, but her mother who was visiting yesterday had decided to stay the night and had just left. I gave her (Johanna that is 😉 a call and heard Tovah screaming in the background. Apparently she was very upset and tired today. Johanna, emphasized that she wasn’t mad with me at all, quite the opposite. She was longing for Friday when she got back to Luleå. We quickly decided to go bathing on Friday with a picknick, I really hope the weather stays this good. Now I am listening to Beatles Please Please Me. These older albums are so good and mostly unknown (i.e. they are never played on the radio, if they play any Beatles at all). I feel good.
Cleaned up the kitchen, for the first time since before I left for the mountains it is all clean and started making dinner. A long boiling stew that I am going to eat tonight. It is basically a tomato sauce with tons of spices in which I cook bacon and pork meat. It should cook long enough for the meat to fall to pieces. I haven’t decided if I am going to put beans in it or not. Mmmm, it smells nice in the house. I feel good.
Now I am heading out in the sun to cut the lawn. Catch you all later! I feel good, I really do, mmmmm!

I just got back from a ride around town, a little trip of about 25Km. It so nice just cruising along on my bike. It took about 55 minutes and it actually was the first time I took this trip out to Gäddvik. I had only passed that way by car earlier. It is amazing how much energy can be stored up inside you by doing nothing. I haven’t really done anything physically for a week, besides going up and down the stairs in the house that is 🙂 I feels so good!
