It's been a busy week.
Jul. 8th, 2006 11:23 pmThought I'd update some real life stuff.
On Monday I had kind of a quiet day, doing stuff around the house and such. Got Marie on the phone and managed to figure out when she was coming. Turned out she'd be staying for a night, which was very nice.
In the evening I went toisil80's place. We just sat talking and watched a little TV, we ended up watching 'Batman'. I'd never seen it before, so figured it was about time. It was better than I'd expected.
Tuesday I had a very calm day, worked on my Salvation review.beluga came by in the afternoon. We didn't do much, doing stuff on our laptops. Talking and watching TV. Don't really remember if we saw anything specific.
She slept over.
Wednesday got up at an okay hour.beluga and I just relaxed and took it easy, she left in the afternoon. I cleaned a little around the house, remade the bed for Marie, and drove in to the city, to the bus station to get Marie. Was great to see her again, we just fell right into old times, talked a lot. I made tacos for dinner, it was very jummy. Afterwards Marie requested a Supernatural marathon, and I wasn't gonna argue. We watched Skin, Home, Asylum, Scarecrow, Faith, Route 666, Nightmare and The Benders, She'd seen the rest, Marie fell asleep in the middle of The Benders, and woke up right at the end. It was late, so we decided to go to bed.
Thursday I got up early, didn't take to long until Marie got up as well, we got some breakfast, and Marie asked to watch more Supernatural. Was happy to oblidge. Hehe, We started with Shadow and worked through Hell House, Provenance, Dead Man's Blood, Salvation and Devil's Trap. Can't believe we actually made it through them all. We finished at about 1600, so it was about time to get dressed and get some dinner. Lol, we ate the rest of the tacos. After dinner we headed into the city and metbeluga. Was nice, but there were a lot of people there, felt kind of claustrophobic. We ran into laraneia, walked around for a while. Just had a look around, we sat down at a cafe, laraneia left. When we finished, we headed back home, sat there talking for a while, was nice. In the evening Marie had to leave, Christine came and got her, was nice to see her again too.
beluga and I just had a quiet evening. watched some TV, and were online.
beluga left before I got up on friday, she had stuff to do. I went around the house trying to get stuff done. Was online for a while. In the afternoon beluga came again, a little later we went to isil80. Was nice, we watched My Bodyguard, was a cute movie. Listened to some music and talked, relaxing evening. Went home and just relaxed, was very tired.
Today has been okay, but got a little stressed when i realized the house sitters are coming tomorrow and I haven't done much to prepare for their arrival and my own trip, so was a little stressed, going around the house doing stuff.beluga arrived while I was cleaning, but it was okay, she had her laptop, so I could continue with what I had to do. Managed to finish a couple of minutes after isil80 arrived. Will do the finishing touches tomorrow. We all just tooke it easy, watched Tv and saw A Knight's Tale on DVD, talked a bit. Eventually isil80 had to get back home. beluga and I have been watching Scrubs.
That's about it for now. Tomorrow I have to get the house completely ready for the house sitters, meet them at the boat. Then until sometime on Monday I'll have to fill them in on all the stuff about the house, what to do and not to do. Get my suitcase packed and get it tobeluga's house, then get myself there, and on Tuesday we finally leave. Am really looking forward to it, getting a change of pace and scenery.
Hope everybody's having a good time.

Well, I'm back.
Jun. 4th, 2006 12:03 amMade it back safely. Only had 24kg luggage, was 4 kg over, but didn't have to pay anything. Very nice. Still have stuff in London, but we'll collect that in July.
I miss the people over there I have to admit.

Supernatural
May. 21st, 2006 06:34 pmIt's getting harder and harder to not watch the final two episodes of Supernatural.beluga and I have an agreement to wait until I come back home (in 13 days) and then we'll watch them together. Now unlike her I try to stay away from spoilers and such, I want to be as clueless as possible before watching the final two.
It's hard, I've accidentaly read something involving the car, there are 2-3 Dean icons floating around my flist which are totally killing me and a John icon that worries me. I'm really tempted to watch them, but I won't... I won't!
On the up side, I have a lot of work this coming week, plus I'll have a visitor for the weekend. The following week will be spent packing an sorting out last minute stuff. That should be able to distract me until I finally get to go home, and watch them with beluga.
Now, I beg my entire flist to post anything about the two last eppies of Supernatural behind a cut, and write a spoiler warning, I'll be very grateful.
Thank you for listening to my rambling, the men with in the white coats are here now... oh! They even brought me one.

I still here.
Haven't really done much the last few days, must say this is the most down time I've ever had while being in Poland, but it's okay.
Am going home to Norway on Monday, will be good.
Gonna go watch more season 2 of Angel now.
Hope all of you are having fun! :D

At this very moment I was supposed to be on a plane from Oslo to London, but that was not to be. I am at home right now.
We got to the airport, and saw that my flight had been delayed an hour. It was still enough time for me to catch the connection in Oslo, so we waited, after an hour it got delayed further. I figure I might as well go to the information and just rebook the flight, so I'll be leaving tomorrow at 8 a.m. instead.
Suits me just fine to be honest, at least then I have all day tomorrow if there should be more delays and such.

Supposed to be writing my essay...
Dec. 19th, 2005 06:46 pm... but am taking a little break. Need time to think a little bit, so figured I'd update.
Am feeling a bit better, but two nights ago I woke up in the middle of the night, after I splashed some water on my face I suddenly felt like the temperature dropped extremely and I was really freezing, and I got naseous, made my way in to my livingroom, grabbed my blanket, wrapped myself in it and just lay on the floor. I've experienced something like that before, but think it's the first time it was connected to a cold. Weird, went away though.
Tonight I actually managed to sleep the entire night... didn't wake up till 13:35. I hate sleeping that late, I always try to be up by 12:00 when I'm at home... 10:00 when I'm in London.
Anyways... am feeling better. Just coughing and feeling a bit tired now, at least the runny nose seems to have stopped.
I've been watching 'Prison Break' eps 1-10. I really like it! The guy who plays Lincoln Burrows, Dominic Purcell, is half Norwegian... just had to mention that. ;) It's a good show. I've always though Wentworth Miller was a good looking man, but never more, but he does look very good in this show, hope the big-suits finally notice him and give him some bigger roles and such. I couldn't forget him after the 1 1/2 episodes of 'Popular' he was in, might have been because I loved his character though.
Am still loving 'Supernatural'. That scene in 'The Journey Home' when Dean calls his Dad. Just wonderful. I want more episodes now!!! I made two Dean icons for beluga... I just had to share.
Normally I'd post these over in my icon journal, mukkianglia, but since they were made for beluga, I'll post them here.
Okay, should get back to my essay. If anybody has anything to say about camera work, or movies and such where they think the camera work and such is very good, please share, and tell me why. Am thinking mainly gritty or dark stuff ala 'Sin City' and 'Angel'... even 'Firefly'. Please share with me, links on the subject are welcome too. :)
Btw I've gotten some cards! I forgot to thank you! *slaps self*.
Thank you very much for you card starlit_woods, I loved it, and what you wrote made me smile. Thank you very much for the stickers too! :D
Thank you very much _krystleklear, what you wrote made me very happy, I hope to keep you on my flist for a long time too. :D
And last but not least thank you very much across_thestars for your wonderful card, it was very cute. :D
I hope everyone has recieved the cards I sent them, I sent them about two weeks ago, so they should have arrived by now.
Okay, back to work.

It's good to be home
Dec. 17th, 2005 01:08 amHad quite a trip yesterday.
Was driven to Heatrow by a very cheerful taxi driver. He was really funny and amusing.
Got to Heathrow, checked in, sat down and waited... it's 15 minutes till my flight leaves and they finally list it as delayed by 30 minutes. That means I only have 15 minutes in Oslo, so I go to a help desk to check my options, was helpful.
I return to the screen, and find out the flight's been delayed another 20 minutes.
When we finally get on the plane, there's no apology or anything, just some lame story about how they're driver made them an hour late... and all I can think is that we have to check in 2 hours before take off, they should sure as hell manage to get there in time too. I was getting used to the idea of having the night at a hotel in Oslo, cos when I looked at my watch it was take off time for my next flight. While on our way in for landing we're told that passangers going to Kristiansand have to go to gate 22. I see a glimpse of hope.
Rush of the plane, end up in a pass port check que that doesn't move, and kind of give up hope again. Get out, collect my bags, hurry up, find that there are no people there. Find a screen that says gate closing, and run like hell, with one 10kg bag and a 20kg bag = heavy. There were no security checks open, get rushed through the one for the pilots, run like hell again, reach the gate out of breath near to having an athma attack. The gate is empty... I feel like giving up when suddenly a woman comes throught the doors, I'm so out of breath I barely manage to ask if I can still get on, when two other passangers run up behind me. She lets us in, and I have to drop my bag through a shute to get it under the plane. I sit, still out of breath. But very happy to be on the plane. Turns out they were waiting for us, and some other people, so we sit there for a while and finally depart after a small family has boarded the plane... That plane is about an hour and a half late.
I finally get home to my family! beluga was with my parents to the airport, she's moved in. :) Was good to see them again.
I was home at about 2 a.m. Didn't really get to sleep till about 3 a.m. Rather tired and exhausted.
Today was a calm day. isil80 stopped by, we watched 'Supernatural' eps 4-10. I love that show!!! My fave episode has to be ep 5; 'Phantom Traveler'. Brilliant.
Topped it off with two episodes of 'House', think beluga liked it... must find more episodes.
It's good to be home

Find a screen that says gate closing, and run like hell, with one 10kg bag and a 20kg bag = heavy. There were no security checks open, get rushed through the one for the pilots, run like hell again, reach the gate out of breath near to having an athma attack. The gate is empty... I feel like giving up when suddenly a woman comes throught the doors, I'm so out of breath I barely manage to ask if I can still get on, when two other passangers run up behind me. She lets us in, and I have to drop my bag through a shute to get it under the plane. I sit, still out of breath. But very happy to be on the plane. Turns out they were waiting for us, and some other people, so we sit there for a while and finally depart after a small family has boarded the plane... That plane is about an hour and a half late.
I finally get home to my family! beluga was with my parents to the airport, she's moved in. :) Was good to see them again.
I was home at about 2 a.m. Didn't really get to sleep till about 3 a.m. Rather tired and exhausted.
Today was a calm day. isil80 stopped by, we watched 'Supernatural' eps 4-10. I love that show!!! My fave episode has to be ep 5; 'Phantom Traveler'. Brilliant.
Topped it off with two episodes of 'House', think beluga liked it... must find more episodes.
