I am sick. I have a fever, and a sore throat, and I feel like utter, complete shit. This. Fucking. Sucks.
 
Ug, man that does suck! So... I dunno how well this works, but hot tea with a half shot of rum is supposed to make you feel better.. just don't mix iwth ibuprofin.
 
And it is undeniable proof that Superman is real... and he's from the Congo!
 
Well, there is truth in all fiction, right? So, Sigel and Schuster took a factual superman from the Congo and Americanized it. :)
 
At least that's the information I got from listening to the web channel of Radio Africa 1 on a boring afternoon...
 
Sounds like a fun way to spend the afternoon!

I have absolutely nothing to do this afternoon,and it is a weird feeling!
 
Oh, it's good! I've been running around every weekend for the last month... it's nice that Sept is finally here. Last night was the last night I had anything that I 'had' to do and now I can spend my weekends getting my house back in order.

I will say it is nice and odd having my son off to college. Its good, but strange all at the same time.
 
It seems like quite a bit. During last school year, he was busy a lot with cross country, band, and work, so I didn't see him a ton. But it was little things like dirty dishes every where, dirty clothes piling up (he goes through a ton of clothes in a days time!), empty milk jugs on the counter. Maybe one of the strangest things that I actually miss is he used to need a ride home from school after getting back from band and XC trips. used to drive me crazy that I'd get a call at 11pm, when I'm trying to sleep, so he could get a ride.

Like I said, mostly a lot of really little things... one nice thing is I don't have to share my bandwidth with him any more ;)
 
September starts quite summer-like here in Oslo. Today there was an airshow in downtown Oslo to commemorate the 100-year anniversary of the formation of the Norwegian air force, and the weather could simply not be better. No wind, clear skies and more than 293 K (that is, 20 degrees C). I had a cold beer in the sunshine and enjoyed the almost musical sound of a Rolls-Royce Merlin engine as a Spitfire made its visit. I guess the early highlight was the display of an F-16 painted in the colours of the flag, for the occasion. I left at 3:30 PM just as a DC-3 Dakota was flying overhead. This meant I missed the display from the Patrouille de France, but the reason was that I was on my way to Lillestrøm, right outside Oslo, to watch my hometown's football team play a league match against Lillestrøm SK.

And - lo and behold - it was a 2-1 win for Fredrikstad, can you believe it. Right now I'm sitting here with another beer, celebrating.

Get well soon, LC!
 
Wow, Blue Oyster Cult's Imaginos is one of the best albums of all time. The backing vocals are enough to bring you to tears.
