how is everyone's day? athens, ohio experienced about a 30 degree temperature drop overnight. going from 65 degrees to 35 degrees is not cool! (as in no fun). I'm currently on my fourth 16-oz glass of water and have not urinated a drop. i think this means i drank too much last night.



Oh, check this. My car door handle broke after a tow-truck man was trying to unlock my car because I am stupid and left my keys locked in my car. This is my driver's side door handle. Having to get in through the passenger-side door and hope over loads of crap is no fun. zero. So, I spent all of yesterday disassembling the driver's door. I then disassembled the passenger side door so I could see what it was supposed to look like. Amazingly, I managed to fix the door! I am not a car-fixer-type-guy at all, so I am quite pleased with myself.



Uh, yeah, and stuff. How is everyone else?

    For a Sunday, not too bad. I thought the cold weather had passed but we go a few flurries yesterday and it's still chilly today. I think it feels colder than it is because there's no sun.



    Aside from that, I'm about to go buy more music. I'm always happy when I buy more music.

    Oh, happy day! I ran on the treadmill at the gym. It was too cold and rainy outside. Good run. I had a greasy slice of pizza for lunch because I haven't had one in a while. Tasted good. I then bought new sheets and duvet for my bed on sale at Macy's. I put them on my bed. They feel good.



    I have to work on a site drawing tonight. I have to have it ready first thing Monday morning. That sucks.

    It was my 36th birthday. And we didn't have one dish with peanut sauce. But lots of chili, coconut cream, thai basil, garlic, ginger and other tasty ingredients...

    i bought a new stainless steel saute pan, and my new kitchenaid mixer was found on my back porch. i tell my ups man i'm always home, but he always puts stuff on the back porch. it got all wet from the snow flurries.

    so anyway, i'm cooking something tonight.

    oh yeah! and i just noticed my herb pots are sprouting. good thing i brought them in last night as it got down to about 20 degrees (fahrenheit)

    I love AI members. Who else would buy a mixer online instead of wal-mart? Do you buy socks online too?

    Have been moving my stuff from one flat to another in my block. Oven, sofa, fridge and dinner table down from fifth floor and up to fourth. I´m a bit tired but at least I now enjoy the great view over the harbour of Copenhagen at night instead directly into to the living room of those living on the other side of the road. And at day the sun even shines into the flat. Something I have missed for the last seven years. That plus a larger living room, kitchen and bath room is the reason I am willing to pay $200 more than my previous flat (the prices of housing is ridicolous here in Copenhagen. My 900 sq feet flat (on paper. 600 is more like it) cost me $750 a month and that is considered reasonable cheap. The flats right across the street with less sunlight and worse view cost twice as much as the flats in my block.



    I´ll might have to let somebody rent one of the rooms until I have finished Uni.



    Tomorrow I´ll take the rest of my stuff. Thankful with four to five friends this time.



    At least our communal owned LAN works two days before I had asked them to hook it up. 1.5 megabits/seconds for $7/month. Wrooooommmm

    I bought my two blenders on-line. And my ice cream maker. And my Valhrona chocolate. And most of my music. And my Mac. And fruits and veggies.

    i only wear socks when i run, and those my sister gave me because they didn't fit her husband, but come to think about it, she asked me if i wanted them via email, so i guess the answer is.....yes!!



    my saute pan, i got at kmart, which by the way, i really recommend the martha stewart stainless steel pans at kmart, they are almost as good as all-clad at 1/4th the best online price!



    my mixer was from various amazon g/c's i'd gotten for christmas and jumping through various hoops. i probably could have gotten it cheaper on sale at marshall fields but then i would have had to use my money.



    not that i have to explain all this to anyone, but i'm just so happy we're not talking about the war!

    which reminds me of my favorite fawlty towers episode.

    My car handle broke off the other day too, it was crazy. My passanger side door started to stick so I was trying to get it open for my girlfriend and it just broke right off. My handle just broke right in half though, so I don't know as if I can fix it.

    The LAN in my university flat was connected almost two years late, on the day I left...



    I'll probably go out on a cycle tomorrow with my new Camelbak. I was going to go today but didn't get round to it.



    I might get the Tucano Second Skin for my PowerBook, as they didn't have them in stock when I ordered it.

    Bagel and NYTimes sunday editions at the bakery, yes yes sunday mornings are always good. Then hw for today, i learned some crazy shit about Belize, and its racial compostion.



    It was also altered lots of winter clothes today, does anyone else do that? i made shorts out of pants, and two tee shirts out of shirts, they look pretty good. Sorta ironic considering we now have 5 inches of snow outside after 2 weeks of the 50's.
