hey there... long time, no blog...

got so bored with MySpace... I'm not sure why i even have any of these thngs any more, i hardly ever blog, nor does anyone read the few posts i do put up on the WWW...

Can't believe it's almost Christmas... I'm not ready for it yet... Americans take this season to the exteme... it's all just a little to much for me... take the following pic as an example. it is taken from my in-laws neighbor's yard



ok, then it'll be interesting to see when i end up posting something again... my guess is that it will not be tomorrow, or the next, or even the day after that....

Fortune Cookie

"Your exotic ideas lead you to many exciting, new adventures!" Not sure what that's supposed to mean... don't believe in any fortune-telling or anything, just think the sentence it self is sort of surreal...

btw - the Chinese buffet didn't have rice, you had to ask for it... even more surreal... it was good food and all, but not to have rice! that was a new one to me...

otherwise things are going well, enjoying my time here, just wish i had a job...

got a new car yesterday

a Saturn SL1, we got a good deal on it... we're happy. glad that tha's done...

still looking for a job. a little frustrating. hard to get anything w/o SSC#... other than that, life is good. it's sunny outside, but really windy... back home wind usually means, coldness and rain/snow...

wll i'm off to clean the bathroom...

well i'm here now...

but i haven't really landed. got a place to stay and working on some furniture, but not much positive to say on the job front... one possibility for a job but that's in like six weeks, which is long to wait and the pay won't be all that great either... will just have to start knocking on doors ASAP...

feels good to be here though, like the pace and the climate a lot. miss fam and friends back home, but it's exciting to be in a (semi) new place and get to know L's fam and friends a little better...

went for a run today and found a hammer in a ditch... i was also attacked by a dog

USA...

hmmm... it's strange in 36 hrs i'll be in the SC, after all the preparation and hassle, it's finally happening... just need to wash the rubber mats in the car and then it's off to bed, for about 4 hrs and then i'm really, actually, finally off... really weird... it's going to be a strange, but exciting new phase in my (our) life i'm sure... well good bye for now.. see you on the other side of the ocean!

BLAH!

Went to By:Larm at Folken last night. Lots of fun! 5 bands in a row!(Madrugada, Annie, The Beautiful People, Gåte and Christer Knutsen) All nationally know (in N that is). Madrugada were really great. Enjoyed them a lot! And although Beautiful People are far from my taste the had an amazing stage precence! my favorite was definately Christer Kuntsen, though. You can actually watch two of the acts here. Click on the on you want to watch (you have to sign up though).

Was reading John 2 about the wedding in Canaan this morning. Something that i had never though about before was that Mary was expecting Jesus to do a miracle (v3,5) even though he hadn't performed any yet (v11). Thought that was kind of strange. I mean granted she knew he was special and all that, but why was she expecting him to do something extra ordinary, if he'd never done something like that before?

It seems unlikely that she was expecting something "non-miraculous" (is that a word?), like just wanting Jesus to go out to the nearest store to buy some more wine, as he was merely a guest and not a partaker in the wedding.

Any one heard/read anything that might explain why she had this expectation?

it's monday and i don't mind...

it's a sunny day, feels pretty warm... highly enjoyable...

Well we're off!

going one last time to M&D's cabin, this weekend. it'll be great to get there and unwind and not do too much else then read and relax and maybe play a couple of boardgames... love it out there. so peaceful and quiet. really enjoy it there. maybe i'll even get some fishing done, that'd be great!
