In a moment it’s gone

29, Jan 2008

I had this great sofa. Made out of a type of bamboo in the 1950s in Hawaii. It was loved by my friend’s family until January 2004 and then passed to me. A funky sofa to the max. The sofa cover had red, yellow, orange, brown stripes; bizarre but full of personality. For the past [...]

Feminism, Sexism, and Lingerie

22, Jan 2008

Hairy Swede wrote a great commentary on feminism and sexism in Sweden a few days ago. I thought I would you point you all to his post as well as my comment- expanded below.

The most entertaining conversation ever

8, Jan 2008

I was telling this story to a friend and she nearly died of laughter. You just can’t keep it to yourself. Here’s the background: Dude and I are entrenched in a conversation. It is important to note the dude is Swedish and the total lack of inhibition in his questioning is either due to his [...]

Resolutions 2008

1, Jan 2008

I do not normally write resolution but I figured this year will be different from any other. Everything is new and I might as well have great goals for myself. In no particular order: Learn snowboarding- heights be damned, this is it! Time to learn and teach those Swedes how one really does it. And [...]
