Dancing With Desire

Yesterday was birthday celebrations for a friend of mine. At 19:00. You know what that means, leave home 17:45, fill up the bus fair card before the bus goes at 18:04. After arriving at the Town Center it's time to get to the Systembolaget before they close at 19:00. Then grab a hamburger at Burger King for some food. Now the tricky part, it's 20 minutes before the specified time and the bus only takes 3 minutes to get there. So taking a long look on the wonderful digitalized time schedule determining which bus to take so I don't get to early (think about embarrassing if that would happen), the host couple actually arrives at the bus station. Talk about lucky, now there was no way I could get there to early.

Even funnier was that when arrived at their apartment they let me get in first, just for the fun to say I was there first, definitely first. Reminds me of someone else I know actually. Otherwise it was a fun gathering of friends having a really good time. Also REALLY good chocolate cake, mmmm... it doesn't count against my soon 2 weeks stop of chocolate so don't try to pin it on me. The night ended at 23:30 when I got to the last bus home while the others went out. Mostly I didn't feel up to it, we can blame it on a very low level of "artificial encouragement" and then that it was the last bus until 5 in the morning. I know I could get a taxi, but I'm somewhat of a cheapskate when it comes to that.

Today more or less a wasted day so I will have to be at the library tomorrow to do some studies. Time is running out and I just seems to stamp at the same spot as usual. On the other hand, the political landscape in Sweden seems to change. For the first time the governing parties has the lead in an opinion poll over the opposition. My favored party got 9 % of the votes which is better then the election result in 2006. Now, I know it's 5 months before the election, but it is always fun with good news. On the other hand, the LibDems in Britain doesn't seem to get the number of seat that was foretold. Of course, they seem to still be able to be the kingmakers of the election, but not with the strength as before, but I still agree with Nick, except on the nuclear issue, otherwise it's good. Now excuse me while I try to avoid some chocolate desires. They released some new taste called Polka. It's not fair I tell you.
