A friend of mine won a election-poster-competition held by one of our top national newspapers. It was pretty funny. And it was pretty obviuos which political party wouldn't get his vote.

I haven't even mentioned the election. It was a rather historic event actually. Sweden switched colors over night. All of the maps in every news cast made it very clear. From being a red nation for as long as I can remember Sweden turned blue on september 17th.

A part of me cried, but another rejoiced. Because I have to confess, I too wanted a new primeminister. And now we got one. Even though he's blue.

I finally got a job! I was there yesterday and was shown what I am supposed to do; clean offices above a mall. Not very glamorous, but very well paid :o) Today I'm going to work all by myself, just me and my music... And I only work after 6 at night, when everyone's gone home, so I still have all day to do nothing!

So we finally named Thess' goldfishes. I said thay reminded me of people with that exaggerated tan you see everywhere this time of year. The only difference was that these fishes keeps the tan allthrough the year.

Thess nodded and said: "Just like Barbie". And so our fishes were named Barbie and Ken.

They're still not finished with the bathroom, but I moved back anyways. Thess and Martin are here and I can always use the shower at my parents house.

After living here for one year we finnally bought lamps for our livingroom and a trashcan for our kitchen. It was really different to sit in the livingroom for the first time after installing the lamps. It was light, and the wallpaper actually didn't look awful. Amazing!

This morning Thess and I went for a morningdipp. It was still really cold despite the unusually hot summer, which was good 'cause it really woke us up. I can't say the water is clean, but I feel clean and now I won't have to go to my parents house to take a shower today.

I am still amazed that I get to live here. In the middle of Stockholm and so close to the water with this beautiful view. I can only dream about ever living like this again. And I think I've fallen in love with our apartment with all it's faults. I simply don't want to leave. Well, let's not think about that now, that day will come, but not now..
