Yes, again... deal with it!

How do you deal with the fact that your colleague confesses to being a relationship-breaker, a player, a tease, and a verified blow-job queen ? Just putting the question out there. Any suggestion, any takers? Nah didn't think so. She's too good to be true. You know those nerdy card games I play ? No ? Well I do, and there's not much more to it. I went on a road trip this weekend to participate in a tournament and told her about it. "Magic:the gathering? Oh yeah I used to play that as well". They really need to start a cloning project on her... like last year. Don't get the wrong idea, I adore her in a platonic way, we're friends, I listen to her stories from last weekend and she laughs at my jokes. That's about the extent of our relationship.

A road trip is never just a road trip. You'll share things with people you'll never forget. You'll experience things that goes beyond the planned and scheduled, and these is what makes the road trip. Never the goal.

Orange juice and tonic water, it's the new black.

This week the olympics begin. Yeah well theoretically they've already begun, since the womens soccer competition is already under way. As always the swedish media have been hyping our participants. Don't get me wrong though, I have nothing but respect for athletes of international level at least the clean ones. There's a difference though between coming 4th at a european championship and being a realistic candidate for medals at the olympics. There's a difference between showing promising results early in the season when all the competition is bogged down with training and delivering when the flame has been lit.

The olympics was awarded to Beijing as a method of exert pressure on China in the matter of human rights. To my very uninitiated eye it seems like this has failed. For four weeks now the world will be watching, let's keep it that way, even after the olympic flame has been extinguished.

On the horizon:
New seasons of my favorite tv-shows, lost, house MD, Battlestar Galactica.
Maria and Daniels wedding.
Oslo
Copenhagen
Rimini

Ask me about the horse.
