Budget for the US!

I am beginning to lay a budget for my USA trip. These are based on my estimates, how much I usually spend here in Denmark, and how much I anticipate to spend each day. My first draft came in at $196, which I thought was a bit.. Low.. I am going t

New York Trip Preparations - Part 1

I know that some of you might be tired of hearing about my travel-preparations, so I am starting to name my blogs "New York Trip Preparations - Part (blank)", starting with this blog. That way, you can just skip those blogs, and read something else.

Snow!

So, I woke up, look at my garden and see this: Snow in June July! Of course, living on the opposite side of the planet this is normal. Oh well, I've been stuck in my home since last saturday bec

New York Trip Preparations - Part 3 (and a small correction to Part 2)

I have finally met my goal regarding the amount of dollars that I am bringing with me to the US, since I went and got $600 today, bringing my total up to $1003. In my last blog on the subject, I falsely claimed, that I only needed $550 to reach $1003

July is typically a month for vacation. I didn't take one this year because my field manager took a vacation, two of my designers took vacations, an associate took a vacation and one of the installation managers was out having surgery. All my staf

Memories...

One of the bloggers here, commented about dreaming live and dead people, and his experience, kinda reminded me of this diary entry from several years ago, and then I realised, this December it's all happening again. How creepy a coincidence can be!

Going on a holiday with a friend!

I met someone a long time ago. Years, in fact. I met her at a party through my roomie and his then-girlfriend, who is my friends sister. At first I thought she hated me, but we got to talking, and she's super chilled out and a lot of fun to be with.

The Peoples' Republic of China.....

Great people and land. But my long term interest in visiting once more, this time to teach and to learn the language, is waning, as I watch Hong Kong. The Party bosses simply seem most interested in a gross misbalance betwen putting food in mouths, a

Afternoon storms rolled in Thursday and Friday... raining so hard the weather service issued flood warnings in parts of South Florida. I was on the phone with customer service for a cabinet company in Canada and asked how their weather was... "Blizza

Rain, what's it all about?

You can be walking along one minute, and everything is fine, then suddenly water starts falling on you. And we just accept it without question. Sometimes it seems that people will stand for anything.

Uncontrollable, Generalizing. Widespread human laughter....

To double dip a bit, cheater that I be... Sorry M and UF. Another true story, from that boring VIERK repertoire. Caught speeding, just a tad, think it was one of those Mississsippi style, tree branch hiding the speed limit sign, sad speed trap (M) ca

I want to travel soon!

At work earlier today, there was an ad on the radio about travelling, and the sound of bagpipes came on, which made me think about just how much I miss Scotland. Then, I though to myself "I should really go to Glasgow again at some point next year".

BMW Isetta 'reboot'

Yesterday, I was changing the mailing address for my car insurance and the advertisement of the company website had a modern looking vehicle (with LED headlights) that reminded me of the BMW my family owned in the 1960's Today, I did some research f

Visions.

After the things happening, I saw it. The visions came to me, of endless joy and happy days. Even my heart feels the innefable urge to pour in tears where my eyes catch a glimpse of, that pass under the train brige.. ¿Remember those times, M? ¿Rememb

How do you do to forget? To not miss anymore?

It's been exactly 8 years already, and I still can't seem to move on. Yeah, I move on, on the outside, new people, new relationships, but still no one that compares to her. "I've turned away from you, and now I am Godless". Shit man, how do you

Shangri-La, Georgia and other non-existant cities...

Trinidad

After spending 3 weeks in Tobago yesterday we left for Trinidad. We started sailing at 7 am. It was a clouded and drizzly day but started to clear up in the afternoon. I didnt really want to visit Trinidad because of security reason but I must say

New York Trip Preparations - Part 4
