It's official people!

WE HAVE SNOW!

dammit...


Yesterday, when driving back from my parents, we got a little south of Oslo and noticed the white fluffy stuff. Snow, people, effing snow! I've been holding on to the autumn now for the longest time, hoping the snow would stay away this year but nooo...
Funny part is that at my parents', further north, there was no white ick at all. None! Usually it's the other way around, not counting last year's atempt from Mr. Frost to snow us in.
Oh well, might as well start singing christmas carols now.

But first I veell carvve me pumpkeens. And make pumpkin pie! Weee...

Random question: What was the first computer/tv-game you remember playing? And what was your first favorite game?
Have been writing about growing up with video games, because most people in my class never even met Mario.

I'm not mad, I swear!



A really bad hair day, and hours of trying to understand how René Descartes went from "oh, I doubt that" to "hallelujah, God did it!" does that to a person.

Filler meme.

Goodie, a meme to steal. From karla, the texpatriate, who again stole it from someone else who stole it from someone who stole it from... you get the idea.


1. You can press a button that will make any one person explode. Who would you blow up?
I don't like blowing people up. Besides, someone's trying to blow this house up. Every few hours there's a loud THUMP and the whole house shakes. Must be Bob the Builder. Scary though.
OK, I'd blow up Barney, now that I think about it. Barney the dinosaur. But first I'd kick him in the nuts.

2. You can flip a switch that will wipe any band or musical artist out of existence. Which one will it be? Oo the opportunities... I think DDE. They're the loudest, most annoying norwegian band and they have songs that you'll never get out of your head. And totally inappropriate fans flashing them. Not that I'm against flashing rock bands for those who like to do that. But flashing DDE is like going to a retirement home and flash those poor old people there (which would probably be the most exciting thing that happened to them that day).

3. Who would you really like to just punch in the face?
Do I get to wear spikes or something that would cushion the blow to my hand? I still don't know though.

4. What is your favorite cheese?
Mozzarella if with tomato or on pizza, the very fatty and unhealthy norwegian "ridder" (means knight in norwegian) cheese for anything else.

5. You can only have one kind of sandwich. Every sandwich ingredient known to humankind is at your immediate disposal. What kind will you make?
Why sandwich? What do I want a sandwich for? I'd love another one of those tomato and mozzarella-sammiches I had in Germany though. Crap... Now I'm hungry.

6. You have the opportunity to sleep with the movie celebrity of your choice. We are talking no-strings-attached sex and it can only happen once. Who is the lucky celebrity of your choice?
That's kind of... scary. Why would a celebrity suddenly have sex with me? What if the one I picked totally sucked and it would be a major bummer? Would I be prepared as in sexy underwear and all glammed up? Or would I be caught totally off guard with greasy hair and old snoopy panties? Shit, now I need to wear itchy sexy stuff all the time just in case. I can't do that! I like my comfy pirate panties! And how can people have no-strings-attached sex anyway? There would SO be strings attached to me afterwards, I tell ya! I'd be all stringed up and WTF am I doing in a stringy web? And another thing, I'm pretty pleased with what I have already, why whyyy would I bother with a celeb who might have spinach between his teeth? And that would be sooo cheating also. I don't feel like doing that. Poor Love!
I'm obviously over-thinking this.

7. You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who do you pick?
*big sigh* I'd rather not get into this again.

8. Now that you've slept with two different people in a row, you seem to be having an excellent day because you just came across a hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk. Holy crap, a hundred bucks! How are you gonna spend it?
Probably on new underwear. Or a guilt-remover. Or donate it to unhappy clowns. I would probably be pretty confused if I'd just hit the sack with two different men and then been wandering around on the streets afterwards.

9. You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go?
Can I take someone with me? Or... I'd go to Germany to visit my family of course. Or to Wales to check out that university and see if Simon has figured out how to do his own laundy yet. Not that I would be bothered to help him if he hadn't.

10. Upon arrival to the aforementioned location, you get off the plane and discover another hundred-dollar bill. Now that you are in the new location, what are you gonna do?
If in Germany, go to the nearest flohmarkt and buy kinder surprise egg figures that are missing from my collection. If in Wales... Nooo idea. Again, donate to sad clowns or something.

11. A demon rises out of Hell and offers you a lifetime supply of the alcoholic beverage of your choice. It is...?
I'd kick him in the nuts! I don't need a lifetime supply of any alcohol. I'm having trouble enough as it is getting rid of the alcohol we have here at home.

12. Rufus appears out of nowhere with a time-traveling phone booth. You can go anytime in the PAST. What time are you traveling to and what are you going to do when you get there?
Good question. Right now I'm thinking going back to when we got mrs. Bucket. I'd have insisted on buying a newer, more expensive car, seeing how much money we've put in fixing her already. Or I'd go back and have a chat with Jane Austen and ask who the real Mr. Darcy was! Yeah, I'd do that.

13. You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society. You make the rules. What is the first rule you put into place?
Everyone must obey me. I, being a total genious, of course know exactly what everyone needs and how to build the perfect society. By the way, Karla's island wasn't that bad either.

14. You have been given the opportunity to create the half-hour TV show of your own design. What is it called and what's the premise?
You can do it! A how-to show for women. How to do basic car repair, how to put together IKEA furniture, how to mow the lawn. That kind of stuff. Simply because there's a lot of women who don't know these things and why shouldn't they know it? Why should you rely on a man to do it?

15. What is your favorite curse word?
Perkele! It's funny. I never use it though.

16. One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by MUMMIES. The mummies aren't really doing anything, they're just standing around your bed. What do you do?
Ask if they know any good curses? Or tell them to show me where the next untouched pharao grave is?

17. Your house is on fire! You have just enough time to run in there and grab ONE inanimate object. Don't worry, your loved ones and pets have already made it out safely. So what's the item?
I don't like such questions. Very afraid of fire, I am. Used to have all my favorite toys in a suitcase by my bed, in case I needed to grab that and flee from flames.
But I'd be torn between photos and the diary mum wrote for me while she was preggers with me.

18. The Angel of Death has descended upon you. Fortunately, the Angel of Death is pretty cool and in a good mood, and it offers you a half-hour to do whatever you want before you bite it. Whatcha gonna do in that half-hour?
Get some fangs so that I can bite the Angel of Death real hard? If I'm going to bite it I mean? (yes, I do get what it really means, I'm just trying to be cute). But I agee with Karla, "fuck like a bunny" seems like a good idea.

19. You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what's even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What's it gonna be?
The power of... brilliance! Whatever I'd do, it would be absolutely fuckin' brilliant.

20. You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?
I'd love to have back one of those little walks Love and I did in Germany this year. It was so special walking around there with him, because I finally got to show him the place where I spent all my holidays as a kid.

21. You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be?
Nuh-uh. Not talking about it.

22. You got kicked out of the country for being a time-traveling heathen who sleeps with celebrities and has super-powers. But check out this cool stuff... you can move to anywhere else in the world! Bitchin'! What country are you going to live in now?
Germany! Duh... But why would I get kicked out of Norway? We're pretty liberal.

23. This question still counts, even for those of you who are under age. You have been eternally banned from every single bar in the world except for ONE. Which one is it gonna be?
I don't do bars. I don't have a favorite either, naturally.

24. Hopefully you didn't mention this in the super-powers question.... If you did, then we'll just expand on that. Check it out... Suddenly, you have gained the ability to FLOAT!!! Whose house are you going to float to first, and be like "Dude, check it out... I can FLOAT!"?
This would bring some interesting opportunities too. Unfortunatly I'm out of brilliance and can't come up with a good answer. Karla has a great one though, check it out. Because I absolutely agree with her.

25. The constant absorption of magical moonbeams mixed with the radioactive vegetables you consumed earlier has given you the ability to resurrect the dead famous-person of your choice. So which celebrity will you bring back to life?
I'm not really missing any dead celebrities, to be honest.

26. The Gates of Hell have opened, and Death appears. As it turns out, Death is actually a pretty cool entity, and happens to be in a fantastic mood. Death offers to return the friend/family-member/person, etc. of your choice to the living world. Who will you bring back? My grandpa. He was cool. There's so much I would love to tell him about that he's missed out on.

27. What's your theme song?
I don't think I have one. Maybe "Beauty is the beast" by The Ark
