Time passes

Tonight Spain and Russia meet in the semi-final in the European Championship in football, usually referred to as soccer by uncivilised people. Now, do not let yourselves be misled to believe that I am actually interested in the silly game - most of the time they are just running around doing nothing for 90 minutes with the occational goal, it is more than enough to set me to sleep any time of the day - my interest in this event is purely... well, let's face it: geeky. The team that wins the game tonight will be facing Germany in the final and as boring as the sport in itself is I can certainly appreciate the analogy to both WWI and WWII! At this very moment I can see myself sitting there by the TV, replacing the names of the players with the appropriate historical figures depending on their actions and achievments in the game. Perhaps David could help me with this? And Sara too, of course.

I realised today for the tenth time this week how isolated I am and that I am most likely going to suffer from severe tristess this summer. I have nothing to do and no money to do anything with, so all I can do is read. A lot. Yesterday, for instance, I finished reading The Blood (the definitive player's guide to the requiem) and is more inspired than ever to play a blood-sucking monster. (Rik: I have an idea, I'll tell you about it next time I call you) And I guess my next project will be to read the entire Arcana Evolved, front to back, no mercy. Oh, and I am watching The X-Files, really good series, if you like character development and conspiracy theories. And then there's a bunch of other films an TV-series to watch. The problem is, as always, that even peeling potatoes with you guys is more interesting and rewarding than sitting alone in a shadowy room reading about/watching people that don't exist.

Random Rants II

I'm sitting at Carolina Rediviva, trying to read a thick and dry book about international trade and fighting an overwhelming tiredness. I don't know why I'm tired, I slept good this night and for once I got up at a responsible hour (9 am). And I'm also hungry, which dosen't make sense since I ate breakfast less than 3 hours ago. This makes me confused.

There is no spoon

Sorry about this but here is a summation of a session of There is no spoon in Swedish:

Madde tar sig in på Wallmart och får på något sätt tag i en svensk enkrona och ska just till att gå ut ur wallmart när Anton förvandlar allt i hela världen till Jello. Rikard äter upp världen och Anton spolar tillbaks tiden tills innan den första svenska enkronan fanns. Madde finns och Kristin tänker medans Rikard blir Jöns Jönsson som levde på 1600-talet.

Anton bygger en enkronefabrik och Madde syr ett wallmart. Madde startar fabriken, jorden försvinner och Madde sätter fast wallmart på mars. Kristin graviterar till sig en enkrona och Rikard byter plats på enkronan och wallmart. Madde sköt wallmart till mars och Rikard fusade Anton och Kristin. Anton/Kristin blir en barriär runt Jöns Jönssons hjärna och Kristin snickrar en kropp på mars.

Rikard kastar Jöns Jönssons hjärna på Madde så att hon dör. Madde återföds som den snickrade kroppen på mars och Rikard gömmer wallmart på en annan planet. Anton/Kristin får på nåt sätt tag i en kropp och börjar slåss om den. Madde hittar en enkrona. Anton/Kristin förökar sig så att de existerar i hela universum. Rikard ändrar definitionen av en svensk enkrona till Jöns Jönssons näsa och Anton rycker loss den. Madde läser positionen av wallmart i Jöns Jönssons hjärna.

Anton/Kristin får en stroke som bara drabbar den delen av deras hjärna som Kristin finns i. Kristin uppstår inuti Jöns Jönssons näsa och rullar den genom att hamster-hjul-springa tills hon kommer fram till wallmart. Vid det laget har de kommit tillbaks till tidpunkten då allting är Jello och Madde står inne på wallmart och håller i Jöns Jönssons näsa. Madde misslyckas med att beama ut ur wallmart och Kristin Månläker allting till hur det var innan varpå Rikard knycker enkronan och vinner spelet eftersom han står utanför wallmart.

Dream

Tonight I had the strangest nightmare... I think it took up right at the end of a previous nightmare where Sara's parents had a cabin in the forest behind the water-filled mining shaft in Grängesberg. They had put us there because there was a war going on. Now they came to pick us up and drive us to somewhere that turned out to be the Celine Dion concert in Globen, only it had been moved to a small cramped stage where our seats had been translated into really bad seats. As if that weren't enough my childhood rival turned up to claim the seat to my right. Then a cute guy came and claimed the seat in between me and Sara. After a while for reason X, since he didn't actually know her, he started making out with the girl to my right.

Then a special part of the show was just about to start. A bunch of celebrity look-alikes, all of whom where more or less hot men in their 40's (no matter what age the celebrities are in reality they looked like they did in their 40's), mixed with the audience. George Clooney passed by on the row below and Stellan Skarsgård walked by before Kevin Costner picked Sara to be his dance partner. Then they started playing Paul McCartney's Live and let Die and Sara was better at the routine than the Kevin Costner dancer. At this point I woke up wondering where the hell Harrison Ford and Paul Newman had been...

This is a short version of the next (previous) post

Hudson & Lennox sacrifice two more or less innocent persons in exchange for the instructions for a ritual. Then they go to New York where Lennox threatens to kill Andrew (her brother) if he doesn't do as she says. They fly back to Baltimore where Hudson puts Lennox on fire to drive out an occultist that is possessing her and trying to take over her body. Then Andrew (who is possessed by a guy named Kyle) pulls out a rock and shoots Hudson who turns into a huge werewolf and then runs away after being hit by a bookshelf. Lennox is almost killed when Harper (a vampire) feeds on her and then she goes out to find a guy to have sex with so that Harper will fetch Hudson so that they can put Andrew on fire and drive Kyle out of him. They succeed with the ritual and drops Andrew off at a hospital and Lennox agrees to be the prey when Hudson and Harper compete in hunting.
