Day of wrong moves

Man, today could have been a bloody monday >_<

well didn't start too bad. only stumbled across another dead person at the morgue (yes I know it's full of dead people, but they tend to be in the corps room) last couple of days I've been by the chapel and morgue, I've walked in on prep work. Or that autopsy last week. (problem with hydrulics in the autopsy table)
Dead people don't bother me as such, but it kinda feels like intruding.

Anyway, the real shitstorm didn't brew up untill after lunch. the last two days our secretary has had back&forth with the IT departments secretary cause they sent a request to have their industry coffemaker de-calcified. to which I politely, but firmly replied for them to do their self as they should and how.
Well appearently they didn't agree and after two days of nagging, our secretary asked me to call and shut them up.
And I got the worst kind of person, first off she was utterly condersending. The chip on her shoulder due to me implying that she should do menial work obviously setting her off balance.
15 minuts later I was ready to garot her with a cord and shouting at my phone. during this conversation she'd threated to call my boss (whom I'd given her both the names of) accused me of insulting her and demanding an apology (when she shifted from not being suppose to do the decalcification to not knowing how, even through having it througoutly explained. I replied that, that stomped me, since kitchen personal on several wards whom barely speaks danish can manage, why couldn't she. gross insult comparing her with the kitchen staff. I can see that ^^;)
And through all of this she was constantly cutting me off, everytime I started to explain how it was their own responsibility to take care of their coffemaker.
So, as I realized I had started shouting and this was leading nowhere. I swallowed my pride, got my temper under control and apologised for insulting her and agree to look at it tomorrow (where it'll take most of the day, maybe two to take care of their problem =3 )
Now, this whole alteration in itself was enough to ruin my mood quite througoutly. But I was standing on a catwalk in an auditorium, which had been empty.
After hanging up, I turned to see, some thirty people had filed in for a lecture and had witnessed my little temper tantrum.
my cheeks felt very hot for the next half hour. gawd that was embarressing >_<

So, foul mood established I headed for CPH to meet with Eri. not having seen each other in ages. picked up my mood instantly =)
So we visited am eco cafe called Firefly, pricy place. but very nice. Neatest little detail, you got a Ipad'ish little gizmo at your table, on which you could order food and drinks =D totally cool concept and worked rather well ^^
also their milkshakes with greentee were quite good and their RAW cheesecake excellent. And I am definetly having a eco-cola another time =) Tasts good and something like a third of the sugar ^_^

And we swung by Tiger, got myself a meathammer. Blue Johns with bacon. I'm looking at you =3

I have returned from beyond the veil

.... or something like that =)

man, havn't updated this thing in ages. JAZYZ!

so, what has been going on, keeping me away from updating this blog. nothing much, but enough to keep me distracted ^^;
Mainly, I fell for a girl.... well maybe not as much feel as crashed into the ground with enough force to create a large heartshaped crater.
Which made the rebuke I got in the end all the more painful. But bottom line is: if the feeling ain't there, it ain't there. (Can't fault her for not returning my feelings, though I don't understand how she can resist my charm Xp )
 =) so I got a few cracks in my heart, but I'll heal.

Also attended Genki, which was seven shades of awesome ^^d most definetly cosplaying next year. There were some excellent cosplays that really inspired me.
and all in all, I had a swell time ^^

later people.
The Emperor protects

Stuff happens

First and formost, my computer is finally fully up and running again. yay =D
After having recieved my first new grafic card around the middle of the month, which turned out to be faulty (black screen of death and nothing beyond that) I returned it to sender (shoutout to the good guys and gals at Pixmania for being super helpful) ^^d
So today I recieved my Radeon HD 6870 ... again. Not taking any chances this time around, I dressed down to my tightywhities (myth about static from cloth. 10pts if you can tell me where I picked it up =3 ) and said a prayer to the machine spirit before I turned om my computer. Don't know what did the trick, but it worked =D
Some driver installation and settings fiddling later and I'm lucking at a crisp clean screen image
T_T <-- tears of joy.
It's amazing, I'd actually gotten use to that 600X800 res with reams of grafic errors up and down the screen.

The lay offs at work are finally over, after something like two months of stress. last week, the last two got the axe. One I'm not ashamed to say I was not sad to see let go. The other, a bit =/ lady had worked there for twenty years and while I  didn't talk much with her, she seemed nice enough.
But atleast it's over and done with.

I'm also working on a small project of getting a personalised wax seal made, you know, to seal packages and letters with a bit more personal touch. Still designing my monogram though, tricky buisness =)

Saturday this weekend tittered on the edge of being a real shitfest, but actually managed to get it's balance and stride into the zone of awesome =D
my saturday started 4 in the morning T_T my freaking eyes acting up, possibly a small cold messing with me or I'd slept with my eye open or something. one way or another my left eye was playing merry hell with me and watering and itching like a mofo.
So no sleep for me the next hour an a half.
7 in the morning I got up and dragged the laudry (long overdue) down to the wash room. hour later I discover that the drying is fried, leaving me with a shitload of waterlogged cloth DX
So I go all spiderman on my appartment and tie string left and right across my living room and hang the cloth up to dry. I just need two dogs and a pair of italiens and I could have recreated the dinner scene from Lady & the Tramp nicely =3
Then off to my grans birthday, which was cozy enough, if I was feeling rather wasted and fnah.
Afterwards I went home and took a nap, sheer desperation, believe you me. You see, sleeping during the day for short durations utterly messes with my body and I feel positively nauseas the first hour or two after I wake up. But If I was gonna be any fun during the evening I had no choice.
So around 18 the First guest show up and we eat dinner and get ready.
around 20 the last guests arrive and I explain the rules for the Disney's hercules drinking game =3
It's very simple, there's about 20 rules dictating when you gotta take a sip when a particular thing happens in the movie.
It was hysterically fun and a sure way to become utterly shitfaced mighty fast if you don't pace yourself =D
... I didn't XD we went to bed around 4 in the morning and four hours later when I got up, I found the door to my appartment open. [Insert mental image of me doing my best impression of the "the scream" ] well nothing had been stolen and appearently I didn't close the door properly when I let out the last guest going home. One of the guest sleeping over, told me a neighbor walking down the stairs earlier had poked his head in and asked if we were okay ^^;
So my OCD with locking my doors been a little over active the last few days, but totally worth it. tremendously fun night =)

now I go for a run. tata people ^^/

the machines are taking over??

So, I shouldn't complain, but I find it suspecious that my fried grafic card has recovered and is working again, only days shy of being replaced ^^; and I don't mean glitch gone away, I mean broke as in crashing my computer if I didn't shut it off. Now it strangely enough works again o_0 does anyone get images of the T1000 reforming too? don't look a gift horse in the mouth they say... what if the horse is tooting a plasma rifle?
Anyways, while I remain free of the mechanical overlords dark will yet I might speed you up on current events =)
I got myself a calender (I know, not all that riveting, but stay with me) First of it's been bugging me for a while that while practical that I ahve my calender on my computer desktop and easy to keep an eye on, I don't have it with me, when making arrangements with people. thus stuff slips through the floor boards of my memory occationally or I forget to write them into my calender.
So I went and got myself a moleskin =) and felt like personalising it ^^

Admitted, my penmanship needs work, but it turned out alright for a first try =) (10 points if you can tell me where I got the text from =P )
I'm also looking into gettting a personalized signet made at an engravers shop, right now I'm hunting prices as I'm getting the design down.

And I got a freaking cold >_< so I missed out on the family trip to Bakken (amusementpark/fair) much to my brothers annoyance, pissed me off a little. 'cause a runny nose, itchy eyes and supporting bone structure made from jello is way more entertaining than spending time with your family.

Back from the dark reaches of Jutland

Oh there are weekends that just come and go to fast.

Using some of overtime to take a few days off, I had an extended weekend i jutland.
Had a quick stopover at Mona place to attend her birthday party really quick like. originally I intended to skip the project entirely and get an early start and get to jutland early. But then she made puppy eyes at me and what little resolve I had to begin with went on coffe break.
glad I went though, super cozy and nice people around. ^^d

so with a bounce in my step I loaded up my car and headed for the freeway. Having spent a little longer at the birthday party than I planned I took the drive in one go. that's close to four hours on the road, damn my ass was sore by the last hour >_< don't know how truckers cope.
Incidently, my driving technique on long trips have improved leaps and bounds. first time I went to jutland, I had to refuel to car to make it home. This time I got there and back on one tank, with some to spare ^^
Usually I get around 400 km out of one tank, when I got home monday, I clicked the km reader at 650 km.
freaking awesome =D
Read an article that 10 km from 100 to 110 as is the speed limit, actually don't make much difference in travel time. But quite some in fuel consumption.
so with that in mind, I found a large truck and set myself snugly behind it, for one thing to pace myself and secondly to use the slipstream of his bulk to ease up on air resistance, thus easing up on the motor power needed to keep at speed.

But arrived in dark reaches of jutland, almost litterally smack middle of it all. Castle CatKitsu, Rikke and Michael. two dear friends, with a cozy, almost hobbit'ish house in the middle of freaking nowhere.
It's hard to discribe just how much I relax at their place, it's like I leave every worry and concern at the door.

it's amazing how days of doing nothing and everything that comes to your mind, pass so quickly ^^;
I took their little, over hyper, welsh courgi for a run/play time each morning. we played with their 360 kinect (really get the puls goin) I got to try on chain mail and swing around with swords (killed a sofa but good) watched anime, played with Loke (their adorable little tyke of a 1year old) and talked and talked.

We also visited another old friend and his girlfriend, nice meeting her. sweet girl and meet their two massive Maincoon cats o_0 I mean, freaking Greebo.

and Monday I headed home. feeling more cheerful than I had in a good while. ^^

Weekend? I just heard something go WOOSH!

So, a long weekend is comming to an end. (I had some overtime hours to whittle away, so I took friday off)

Thursday I meet up with Anja in CpH after work and had delish burgers at Sporvejen and walked around the city chatting and goofing around. Been ages since I've seen her.

Friday, I sleept in late and then headed off to town to meet up with Siri, got the downlow on her trip to New York and we saw Thor (which was actually quite good, though the blatant disregard for norse mythology was itchy. I mean, what the hell happened to Sifs golden, litterally, golden hair and if Heimdal was called the White Ase, how come he was black. but still, a fair enough superhero flick ^^d)
Siri sucked me into buy a load of candy... well, technically she asked if I wanted some candy and I head myself say yes XD so felt very bloated after the movie, my stomach is no way near able to handle sugar and E-numbers like it use to.

Saturday, up bright and Early... well around 8 anyway =P
and off to Lyngby to buy new running shoes, as the old ones were starting to mess with my feet. some run tests and counsling and 20 minuts later I had new shoes and water belt and was 1600 lighter. EMPERORS PONGO STICK o_0 anyone who says running is an equipment cheap sport can kiss my ass.

anyways, here they are

Gonna take a run in'em as soon as I've digested my breakfast, I've eaten way to much unhealthy crap this weekend. >_< I feel seriously bloated.

Was gonna swing by Hanami, But since most of the people I know that'd show up was either at svs, in Holland or well, just not there. I jumped when Kenneth called and asked if I wanted to go shopping with him.
Which turned out to a trip to Fields, where I got a pile of socks and a small pile of cloth for kenneth.
Afterwards we went to a improvised foto safari.
I got a warhammer 40k projekt in the pipes, shopping in titans onto pictures with well known buildings to give a sense of scale. (this ofcause will require me to fix my computer and get PS. but one thing at a time)
So got some pictures of Herlev hospital, which I know is slightly taller than the largest of the titans in the line up, so perfect place to start =)
we knew a large hill about 10 km out side of Herlev, so we saddled up and headed out.

gives you a rather good idea of just how massive the emperator titan is, when the building pokes up like that =3

Picture of a very gratifying moment of relisation. Advedøreværket in the horison, that's almost exsactly 10 km away in a straight line from the top of the hill. I run that distance about every other.
Ego boost? oh yes sir.

on the way down the hill, I snapped a photo of kenneth, snapping a photo of me.

 It's a big freaking hill.

some sheep at the bottom. who where were suspecious of us =3

Also, kenneth bought the new Within Tempatation CD. good stuff. but particular Demon's fate caught me.
^^y

While talking about music, that's caught me. I've been very partial to Xanders: Det burde ikke være sådan her. Really like it ^^

and now for something far more silly. After Kenneth headed off to his parents, Eva swung by and we sat down to play the conan drinking game.
Which means you gotta take a sip everytime something particular happens.
Anyone says "crom"
Arnold flexes or swings around his sword for flash.
there's naked tits.
someone dies
when he says the "crush your enemies, see them driven before you yadda yadda yadda" it's bottoms up.

The someone dies rule nearly did me in, christ alot of people gets killed in that movie ^^;
But it was good fun =D

Winging it

So, after work I headed off to amager to visit Eri, Hiro and Emma. Along the way I made a quick stop over in a shop to pick up a stuffed animal for Emma.
As I walk in, I say hello to the woman behind the counter and start looking around the store. Out of the corner of my eye noting her staring at me. Not looking, staring.
I try and pay it no mind and find some more stuff for my self and pick a doll, but get's somewhat weirded out that she just keeps staring, wondering if they recently got robbed by someone looking like me.
So I come across a showerbrush or broom for brushing down a horse, and hold it up and ask if it's either.
she politely tells me to bring it over, so she can find out. I walk over and hand it to her and it's then and there the coin drops, as she stands holding it in her hands and explains it's a showerbrush, but still staring straight at me.
ladies blind, and still manages a store, neat =) had a talking registere and everything ^^ Managed to swallow my first inclination to observe stupidly "you're blind!" I'm pretty sure she was well aware herself and just go along as if I'd know from the getgo =3

Anyways. Got cute little bunny and even cuter octopus for Emma.
And Eri got some skin creme from Ole Henriksen in a belately birthday present ^^;
