Back online!

Here I am again. As online as ever :)
As we have moved and it does take some time to make Mimer set up the connection, the blogging has unfortunately had a standstill. In the very unlikely event that I might remember things that have happened the last month or so whit any accuracy at all, I will not try to tell you what has happened, and rather concentrate on the present and future.

We have just come home from a little trip to Trondheim. It was set as a mini vecation and a shopping-spree at IKEA. (It is amazing how much you can cram into a VW Polo.)

A couple of bottles of wine and a romantic dinner escalated to a rather moist night at random pub's in the immediate vicinity of our hotel.
This again resulted in a rather puzzled and pretty hung over IKEA trip. I hope we learned something that day:)

It was a really romantic trip for us, and Linda seems to have had a blast.

We also met up with Elise, who is rather happy with being "my half" of the Toastmaster-team we are setting up for our wedding. The other part is Lindas friend Hanne.

Maria Kristine and her husband Sivert made a lifesaver Lunch for us as we visited them just after the IKEA trip. As we nearly just ate and ran, we are happy to report of a great apartment, a happy dog, their gorgeous daughter Martha chewing the same piece of bread over and over til it is all wet and mush and she throws it on the floor. Classic family happyness:)

The 6 hours of drive is reeking havoc with my behind and I'm rather tired and soon to be crosseyed. I better go to bed. I hope to do regular updates on my blog from now on. This is my special service to the couple of people that might actually read this. And thank you for doing so:)

Later.

School is really lame, boring etc etc.

Yes, you heard it from me, although probably not first:
School sucks. Thats right! It's really really not what I want to spend my time doing. At least not with the classes I'm taking just now, again.

U guessed it, it's MATH! The slow agonizing death of numbers (and more and more resently: letters too).

I seem to be able to solve any problem though. I kinda always have been, but the time spent on it is just not worth it! By the time I'm finished with the equation (or whatever) I shoud have been doing at least 5.

I practice and practice, but the solving rate is still the same. What I mean is: I solve an equation, and the next does not go any faster. Even if I use the same technique.

How come I'm so slow? What is damming up my river of thoughts that brings the boat of "solvation"? The river carves its way into my brain, but the flow-rate is still the same.

I try to do it faster, just to speed it up, but then I utterly fail to solve it. I go wrong somewhere.

Why don't I have a talent for this?

I can tell if a building is stable just by looking at it. I see the forces in the framework, the forces from the roof and the floors and the bending moment on the structure.
I eaven see the answer to most math-problems, I see what most answers should be. Most of the time I get the right answer by reverse-engineering my way trough it!


And that is bloody annoying.

And I don't want to go to school anymore! I want to work! To  be a part of a team, or independently make my own way! Solve REAL problems or issues!
Contribute to society!

Have a home! Have a wife! Have kids! Have a job! Be appreciated for what I do!

How I long for it all...

On the plus side:
I have a home, I will have a vife by 17. July next year, kids are planned sometime after the marriage... So a JOB. That's what's left.

Just have to finish school/college... So:

This looks like a job for: SUPER OLE MAGNUS!

Better thoughts about scouts. And eagerness!! :)

This is great. Finally things are going my (our) way with the scout organization.

We are approved on paper, we have regular meetings, we have acquired a tent and tent plugs. We have a recruiting poster that is going up on schools and sutch. We have a location for the Pentecost camp in spring.

The windmill we are going to construct is soon going from plans to construction.

These are happy times! :)

A little leaky...

So I leak... From the belly and up :) No biggie. I just have a slightly damaged "valve" that stops stommack-acid coming up the eating-tube. So it kinda burns sometimes. But now I got my medication, and I take it when needed. And that is not all the time :)

So life still goes on, as usual. I just take some medicine when I need it, and even then it's just mild agony -sometimes.

I can eat and drink as before. My acid is normal, so my condition won't get affected. I just simply leak.

The medication is just to heal the acid damage done to my eating tube.

The Doc still took some test to see if I was allergic to wheat and stuff. Coeliac-disease. Cøliaki in norwegian.
If these tests are positive (meaning I have the disease), the Doc will call me. (No word yet).
