Hey deadheads,
If it used to be every day, it is more twice a year now. Blogging that is. Not lots of it. While I don’t wake up from police raids (like in Chicago) or from crazy middle easterners (Israel) stuff still happens. And I’ve travelled more since so, I just suck at writing about it. Thought I would just throw some things out there and try to write more frequent after that. Ready roosters?
1) Me and Elin celebrated six months of being married this monday.
2) I went to see Aimee Mann live in Stockholm about two weeks ago.
3) I visited Pilgrim Bestiarius of black metal band Crimson Moonlight about six weeks back – took a lot of pictures and conducted an interview that was published over four pages in Swedish newspaper Dagen. A simliar article will be published in HM Magazine which is great fun.
4) I’m watching the Vancouver Canucks play the New York Rangers right now. NYR just reduced to 1-4. It’s a re-run though from last night. The game started at 2 in the morning. The Canucks are crushing!
5) Held a economy seminare at the local University.
6) Me and Elin got identical marriage tattoos! Really sweet ones. Butterflies with skulls for bodies.
7) I started a new part-time job today. It’s for the municipality and a great job I think. I’m the controller for this collaboration between five different municipalities trying to help some hundred youngsters who’ve had a hard time getting jobs.
8) I bought a season ticket for the Örebro Vipers‘ home games. Haven’t missed a game so far. We’re aiming for advancement to the second highest division this year. Go Vipers!
9) We hosted a Halloween party… on Halloween and we had a blast. About 25 people showed up. Elin was dressed up like a dead nun (much like Freddy Kruger’s mom Amanda from A Nightmare on Elm Street). I was a skinhead. Others showed up as Napoleon Dynamite, the Devil and a Bee.
Lot of stories for you. Not enough to make up for lost time, but a good effort. I could leave you with a top three too I guess;
- Marillion “Happiness is the Road” (2008)
- Robert Earl Keen “Marfa after Dark” (2008)
- Novembre “Materia” (2006)
That’s all kids. If you are gonna chew dirt, don’t swallow.
