Or at least it seems one of the weather gods must be. I came out of work today, and found that thick grey haze that feels like the roiling clouds above have reached down to touch the earth.

Thanks. It was actually a lot more florid and lengthy when I first wrote it, but I decided to go back and make it a little more giddy since I was actually feeling pretty giddy about it. :-D

And as a matter of fact, I have. (-; The first time was after... um... I think I had been awake 27 hours at that point? But I was going to send "Jag är mycket mycket trött." Fortunately, I had the presence of mind to realize that 27 hours awake is not the best time to test out the mad Swedish vocab skillz I'd been developing for... oh... a week... so I didn't. But according to the online dictionary thingy I've been fiddling around with, while trött in some form means tired, trott is some version of a word that means "believe." Considering my equally nonexistent grasp of Swedish grammar, I could see myself slaughtering that oh so very easily without umlauts.

Admittedly, later I did send it, and got no feedback, so kind of a wash in the end. :-D BUT! Use for umlauts, y'see. I never had any real hope of my phone having the letter å, but I did have vague hopes for the umlauts. *pouts a bit over the absent umlauts*
