Whoo... I have singlehandedly carried 150kg salt indoors and downstairs. Did feel a little macho harrharr.
It started with a seiers of errands; I am the deliverer of goods and good people today. Mom needed to get to the trainstation by 6:30. Then it was home and jump on bro' so he would wake up and I could drive him to school. Here the salt enders the story: because as we were about to cruise down the driveway, we are greeted by a big, grey-sooted metal butt clogging the traffic (not that the little one-way hill up to us take any). It was trying to reverse up to our house to dump some bags of salt tablets. Which took all the time in the world while bro' got a little stressed. So I was nearly licking the truck's backdoor as it snailed down again. But we got to school, with a good minute left 'till the bell rang.
After this I had to get to Sandvika and an interview with Mr Manpower. Then back to Asker to deliver books and CDs. Back home the saltbags were waiting for me.
On the topic of driving...I must admit that I never quite appreciated the aspect of driving around like a stero on wheels until I tried it myself. Though, I guess, I usually play my music considerably lower than most, there is a weird satisfaction that comes with turning your favourite music up to the level where the entire car vibrates with the bass. On the highway to Drammen, with full bass to La la land is quite an experience.
Speaking of music...
Put your MP3 player thingy on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results.

I had him! His throat was bare beneath my hand
The smoke stack spittin' black soot into the sooty sky
You're a part-time lover and a full-time friend
I'm so excited I just can't sleep
Alright, is everybody ready?
I'm a Skatman! Skibbiribbidibbitid (...moldy March!!! when did I last listen to this? On God Elg?)
In this neighbourhood
Around the world, around the wo-orld
Well I'm standing by the river, but the water doesn't float
Playing pool and drinking beer
The wind is a-whippin' through the open doors
So am I... Good or bad?
It's only been a week
Hold in your heart

I have been the one to partey until the end
The sewers belch me up
I've got no things to fear 'cause we ain't got no things to fear
