Land of the Sunshine

In english, det sier seg selv. (:

The countdown says 0 days 10 hours 6 minutes 50 seconds. I remember back when it said 148 days 21 hours 45 minutes 13 ... 12 ... 11 seconds. Those where the days.

Now is THE DAY.

Well. It's the night, really. It's 1:30 am and I just finished packing. I think. My bag is not stuffed, I didn't have to push real hard, sit on it, kick it or suck out air. I just put my things in and I closed the lid. It's actually airy in there. I most certainly must have forgotten something? Maybe I'm just getting old and reasonable, packing properly. Yeah, that must be it.

I went to the store earlier today to buy some chocolate and Travelcandy. Yes, that's a real thing. Whatever you eat during traveltime you wont gain in weight. It's a golden rule and there's nothing to be said about it - i will eat it all (oh, uhm .. and share, of course).

But, back to the store. I stood by the magazine shelf, considering my choice of read for the flight (ended up with nothing. Elle - what do you give me? (tips about shaving, apparently)). Anyway, I was standing there and a lady approached me. "Scoos me, I no bring glasses, can you read for me?" I go "uhm". She continues: "this say nail polish, no?" "yes, it does. Nail polish remover," I read. "I forget glasses, ach ach. Well fank you". She moves on and I'm left behind gazing after her. Did she not wear glasses? She did wear glasses. Lady, you were were wearing glasses. Well, you were wearing frames of glasses, actually. But you forgot to put the glass in.

Weird things happen when you shop alone.

Speaking of which. Lucky Luke spent a whole lot of time alone. I am going to the land of the lonesomes. The land of dunkin' and fraps. I'll be cheering for the yankees not knowing who they are, while sipping a root beer and trying on dresses.


See you! ;)

  4. Hei Mette og alle jantan. Nå er dete vel på vei med fly, og jeg vil ønske dere en konge tur. som mette sa, rart at mette drar uten meg (hun har ikke vært der før uten meg), men jeg vil savne dere, er så mange som er borte nå, er bare halvparten igjen :/ Men dere må kose dere max med stoppskilt i hver ande av hver vei, de søte små postkassene med søte røde flagg når det er post, lange highwayer, billige klær og mat, snakke engelsk i tre uker, besøke masse nydelige mennesker. Mette, hils til Pangs og Marie og Bill m/barn. Kjenner jeg savner turen vår altså nå som alle minner kommer opp, men er super HAPPY på deres vegne, detta blir konge :D Love U, klem fra chris :)
