New Year's Eve is almost completely planned. Strange, it may seem, not to have everything ready the night before, but that's the way it is when you're doing something with L&I. Either way I'm sure it will be a nice evening. Cooking together and sharing a nice three-course meal and then party all night long!

And on Saturday Mike's coming down too, before his "big" South America trip. It'll be fun to meet him again and get to spend some more time together. Maybe talk some more. Plus, this time most of the people here are with their families so there will be even more time to be just the two of us. One small worry that I have, though, is that things will get weird with "the boys" or that I'll miss spending time with them because Mike's here and I need to be with him. Luxury-problems I guess - too many friends. Heh....

Speaking of which, I unfortunately had to turn down another invitation for a New Year's party. One in Lund, that some of my old "high school" friends are having. A pitty that I'll miss it, because I rarely get to meet them, but at the same time I wouldn't want to miss "our" party.

Still a bad blogger. Not keeping my page updated. Hopefully I'll do better. Realised last night that this might be the best way for me to practice my writing. At least for now. And if I want to become a journalist, scientific or not, I need to get cooking!

So, what's happened since October?
First of all, "L" came home. He's been looking for a job in Copenhagen, but no luck so far. Hoping for something to come up after New Year's. He is, of course, aiming for the Gucci-store or some other high-profile employer. I wish him all the best. I do want him to get a job there. And hopefully an apartment, so I can come live there if I need to. I have been applying for jobs in the city, you see. So, if I get one of them, I'll have to find a place to live as well. I was thinking, if he got a place then maybe I could stay there for a while until I found my own. Shameless! I've also been talking to "I", his roommate here in Sweden, about how maybe the three of us should try and find an apartment to share. After all, I have already been "adopted" by them as their mother/pet and bigger flats are usually easier to find than the ones small (and cheap) enough for one person. We'll see how it works out.

What else.......Mike visited a couple of weeks ago. It was actually great to see him again and we could hang out and talk, pretty much like in the "good, old days". I also got to tell him a couple of things that I've been wanting to say and he, in turn, told me something about how he "works" and explained a bit further why things could get as horrible as they did. And he appologised! He was truly sorry for the pain he had caused me and admitted to having been wrong. He stayed for about a week.

The ball got canceled. Unfortunately not enough people bought tickets, so after all the work we put into it we still had to give up. But at least I've now got a wonderful dress and "F" more or less promised to take me to one of the spring-balls.

I need to get photoshop and I need to update my homepage. Actually, I need to get photoshop so I can update my homepage. Haven't really thought of what I want to do with it - whether I should keep some of the old pages and layout, or if I should redo the whole thing and, in that case, what on earth I should put on there instead!
