news

Poured myself a cup of coffee, picked up the mail from the floor and thought I'd read the paper. It took me one hour to get home from work and now it's 9 in the morning. All I want is some news. But the newspaper has gone missing. Probably it wandered off with Martin when he went to the University. If so, its chances of it returning are minimal.

Might as well update my blog since I have nothing better to do.

The first snow came yesterday, together with the second fall-storm. Stockholm stopped and stared. Noone expected it, which can seem wierd since the winter in Sweden always last at least for 6 months, maybe 8. No, seriously it's november. It's raining. It's cold. And what's the most likely thing to happen?

The subways broke down because of the icy tracks, the busses were cancelled and the cars stood still. I watched the lights on the south-going-highway from our balcony. No lanes were moving and even the exits were still. Silent. I could hear the water under the bridges, and that has never happened before.

And now, the sun is shining, the subways are late, the busses are running and the highwaytraffic is flowing. But I still have no news.
