We're Gonna Show This Town How To Kiss These Stars
Oh, how I love the Swedish summer. Well, I was kinda.. no, I was being very sarcastic. Not that I don't love the Swedish summers. It's just that this summer, so far, has been more like fall. But now I think we start to run out of rain, and the weathermen promised better weather after the weekend. So I think we'll survive. Also, it's actually pretty nice to blame all the laziness and all the junk-eating on some rain, and getting away with that. Every rainy day, is one step closer to a sunny Hultsfredsfestival. Gaah, I can't wait. It's gonna be so much fun, I can feel it in my piknies! And three days later I'll get on the plain to NYC! It can rain all it wants today, and tomorrow. I've even got a raincoat.
Believe it or not, but yesterday was actually sunny. I think mother nature wanted to give us a sign, that the sun still exists, or something. I managed to get a bit sunburned as I couldn't find the sun lotion (which I now remember putting in my beach bag, so I wouldn't forget the sun lotion...that's just me). Som Hemma (coffee shop) was open 'til 9.00 pm yesterday, so I met up with Ann, Jossan and Susanna there.
Tomorrow is not just any Friday, it's Midsummer. The day every Swede is either eating or drinking a bit (or alot) too much. I guess some people manage to do both, as well..
As it seems now, it's gonna be cold and rainy later during the day, so I'm happy to have a house, and parents who aren't gonna be there. So I'll see who shows or doesn't show up. In worst case, I'll be eating and drinking with myself, my cats and Bon Iver. Yes, I'm still in love with Bon Iver's music. None of my friends or family seems to understand me though.
Just to be a liiiittle negative here, that seems to be very popular at the moment (maybe I'm turning into a hippie, but feel absolutely no need to complain as long as I've got friends, family, room and food..and if I can kick the door and say a few bad words if I get mad sometimes. Whatta heck, life's what you turn it into...
To the point; the water in our town is polluted! Which means you have to boil it before you drink it. It's okay for a few days, but it gets tricky as we are four adults, two dogs, four cats and ONE tiny refrigerator. Well, it's not for forever I guess, but it feels a bit gross to think about the fact that we all drank the water until we knew about it. I wonder what we were drinking...
But again, it could be worse! Not alot of people can drink delicious water out of the tap every day. Now we can sympathize with them.
Now I'm gonna go eat the rest of yesterday's soup. Then I might make a rhubarb pie. Or not. Doesn't matter 'cause it rains so it's okay if I do nothing at all^^
