Eee-pc, friends and amusement park.

Great week so far.

Tuesday started with me running errands; I had to fix my glasses after cathing a footie with my face Sunday... Then I finally got my watch back, it's been in the shop for repairs for like forever. Also got my last (?) doctors appointment before we leave out of the way; I needed to fill up on some prescriptions before we go. The best part of the day was picking up my new netbook that I'd ordered; this post is being written on my new Eee-pc 1000HE (gold), which I absolutely love! I've been wanting to buy one since around christmas, but I've been putting it off, never finding the right time. Last week, however, mum called and asked if me and Mick were up for going up north to visit relatives, and then I wanted to bring a laptop, but not my big 3 kg lump... So I finally got my ass out of the wagon (great Swedish expression for not postponing stuff for longer) and ordered it. So far, it's better than I thought it would be, yay!

Tuesday night was spent with one of my oldest friends who was in Stockholm for a brief visit, Johan. Him, me and Mick went to dinner, then to the pub, just had a great night of talking old memories, recent stuff (he's been in France for a year, so we haven't talked very much), future plans and just random stuff. I don't have a lot of close friends left, since I've been travelling around for a few years, but some of them will always be there when you get back.

Yesterday we went to Stockholms biggest (only?) amusement park, "Gröna Lund", and enjoyed rollercoasters, crazy upside-down rides and other fun stuff. We've finally gotten something resembling summer here, with temperatures around 25 degrees(!), and the sun was shining, good day all in all.

Today is mostly about relaxing, doing laundry, packing and waiting for Mick to come home from his test (some Microsoft certificate, I can never remember the name of it), and tomorrow it's off to visit my relatives and experiencing northern Sweden in summer. We're not gonne see the midnight sun, but we should get close enough that it still stays light out all night, pretty cool, huh?
