Me, Marianne and Sanna took a ferry to Latvia this tuesday and just got back.

Riga is not quite as depressing as Tallin, but not so far off either. It’s ok to visit, but nothing that I will long to visit again.

Mariannes birthday is coming up, and instead of having a party at home we decided to go out to Östgötakällaren, one of our favorite bars in Stockholm.

Joining us were Carina, Fredde, Pirate-Johan and Caisa-Stina. Around ten o’ clock we decided to move on and ended up at Söderkällaren where we were joined by Simon & Erika.

Good times!

I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves:

Conclusion: Success.

Man, this has been (and will be) a  busy week. I’m dead tired as there has been late nights and early mornings. Some renovating is being done in the building, and drilling and heavy machinery has started around 7 all week.

Monday: Shopping round 1 for Friday

Tuesday: Shopping round 2 for Friday

Wednesday: Getting tattooed again by Mikael at House of Pain Sthlm. Didn’t take any pictures but will do and upload later when tattoos have healed a bit. Placed on my upper inner arms, so it hurt a lot more than on the outside of the arm. Took about three hours and is still a bit “fleshy” and  red. Shopping round 3 for Friday.

Thursday: Shopping round 4 for Friday. Cooked and baked for about 8 hours. Cleaned a bit.

Friday: Shopping round 5. Other preparations. Final cooking. Big party with mustache theme.

Saturday: My 30th birthday. Cleaning up. Having Cake.

Sunday: Washing. Going to the movies to see Watchmen.

Call me sexist or whatever, but I found the following flowcharts (originally found on Gizmodo.com) very funny, and I think they held a great deal of truth. What do you think?

By the way, I am starting to have regrets about my New Year’s resolution. The nicotine abstinence I can handle (although I eat a lot more), but I so want to go out and party (in an alcohol-intoxicated state)! I will at least try to stay sober until my 30:th birthday (3 more months), but we’ll see how it goes.
