The norse gods of water and sea
In these days of everlasting wetness, rain, flooding, water everywhere, and a feeling of being wet all the time, I cant help but being preoccupied with thoughts of creatures having to do with water ( Read more... ) -
Fish
Fish. A very important food group in Norway, although not as much today perhaps as it used to be. Fish has been a part of the everyday life in Norway for ever and ever, and in turn in the minds of people. Fish has become an abstract entity, that can be found in myths, artworks, literature and songs, and is not just a dish on the dinner table.

I shall never do it again
I had one of my classes to day. One of the girls asked me: How old are you? And I said: How old do you think I am? And she said: 40, no 50 years ( Read more... ) -
Rain
I just got updated on the horribleness of the weather here in Bergen. It has rained every day for the last forty five -45- !! days. I believe that it says in the Bible that when Noah was sailing around it rained for 40 days. So we got five more days so far. I don't think I have to say more, except: 45 days without sun can't be healthy. I think that ( Read more... ) -
the damned weather
I hate the weather. Rain, rain, rain, wind, wind, wind. Dark, cold, wet, nasty. Yuck. -
A bit more James.
Another thing about the Bond/Le Chiffre likeness.. Even though they seem the same, as to the whole I don't give a f***k about what you do to my girldriend.. they really are not. Bond learnt from his mistake at the poker table, when he didn't see Le Chiffre bluffing. So he probably knew Le Chiffre was bluffing during the "I will kill your girl" ( Read more... ) -
James Bond, lisenced to be loved
Ohmigod.. I just came from the new James Bond film, CR, and it was the greatest Bond film I've ever seen. It might even be better than the first ones, and I do love Sean and also Roger, for that matter, but Daniel Craig, mama ( Read more... ) -
The horrible mistake
I have finished guiding the two groups of today, and all went quite well, until all of a sudden, it didn't. I was about to end the guided tour with the kindergarten group, we had talked about ginger bread houses, Christmas trees, presents, dinners, St. Nikolaus in all his aspects, when one of the adults from the kindergarten said: I hope we are ( Read more... ) -
Less work moral, please
I have decided that to day is the day to be a bit laid back, to stop stressing around. I slept like a pig yesterday, and today I feel rested. No need to destroy this feeling by being extreme effective. I shall, after all, guide two groups of small children today, the last group from a kindergarten, and that will demand a lot of energy, so waste not ( Read more... ) -
terror on the telly
I was watching a tv show about the glorious eighties, after a long day on the museum, with 270 children visiting on our family day, me being the one in command. Up pops Samantha Fox, being 40 years old or something, and then it hits me, she look just like the leader of the norwegian democrats, FRP, Siv Jensen. How scary is that.
