the smell is all it takes




friday night. fredagsmys.me and freddy just finished watching the movie social network (about Facebook). haha, the blog just autocorrected me to spell
Facebook with capital F. thats how widespread it is.
freddy has now proceeded to cook us dinner. and it's the best

smell in the whole world. he is making greek beefs with potatoes and greek yoghurt. amazing.
i would take his homemade food over any restaurant.
a pretty good day today. its the middle of november and there is still no snow. i really like this icing kind of weather without the trouble that snow brings. but once it lands it'll still put a smile on my face.
tomorrow is our day off. i love
saturdays. i found some great secondhand stores on södermalm with sara yesterday and i can't wait to take freddy there. they had such cool furniture.
our house feels so much more like home since we got the new furniture.

today (during the most boring class about swedish folk music) i was browsing through what felt like a hundred websites trying to find the perfect vinyl player. i think I've found it. at first i was looking at crosley's selection, which is definitely alright. but they felt a bit too "i have a vintage vinyl player" and when i saw that they actually sell it (for a ridiculous amount of $) it confirmed my thought. so now I've looked into steepltone, who have a bit more of a new vintage feel to it. ill put both the crossly and the steeple tone up for you to decide:
i can hear the pan sizzling now and I'm a bit too excited about the food to stay put here.

the hospital, part 1


I'm sitting at huddinge hospital in the cafeteria. have just been doing some blood tests, EKG and talked to a doctor about my surgery. they were all very great in every way! i got a little drawing of my heart and some arrows pointing to what's wrong. i have an extra electrical signal that causes my heart to beat faster so they are going to go in and burn it.
its too bad that no talented chefs feel a calling to go into the hospital food business. as well as baristas. maybe one day.... they would seriously make the hospital stays 50% better. id forgotten that coffee could taste this bad.
my next thing is not until another 3 hours, so I'm gonna sit here in the cafeteria and play Theme Hospital. my favorite game from when i was a kid. its seriously so much fun. i bet its even more fun if you're sitting in a hospital while playing it. we'll see...
here's a link if you wanna download it to your mac: (its a PC game, so you'll need to download Boxer first to play it)
