0900h – Get up, get dressed and walk the Boo.

1028h – Get in from walking the Boo. Doing a bit of random Interneting until 1100h.

1100h – Go down to the laundry room and put the tow first loads in (separate machines: one dark colors, one other colors). Ran out of fabric softener.

1105h – Breakfast while watching a lecture on additives in food.

1130h – Start preparing the dishes, get interrupted by phone call.

1200h – Stop talking on the phone go down to the laundry room to take out the loads from before, and put them in the dryer and the drying cabbinet, and put two new ones: Blue jeans and white (again seperate machines). Last loads of the day!

1205h – Not the last loads of the day. As I get back from the laundry room I found the dog being sick all over the couch.

1206h – Taking all the covers from the back and seat cussions off the couch. Place them in a pile. They need to be washed.

1249h – Chatting with El guapo whilst drinking coffee.

1255h – Down to the laundry room with loads 5 and 6. Picking up todays mail.

1300h – Continuing with the dishes (see 1130h).

1307h – Doing some general tidying up. (I have to wait for the dish water to cool a bit. The water I poured into the zink was too hot.)

1332h – Done with the dishes! Organising the trash (I’ll get to explaining that one).

1341h – Changing light bulbs where needed. (Two in the hall, one in the large bedroom and one in the small bedroom.)

1349h – Going down to the laundry room with the 7:th load, two pillow cases I forgot before. I really hope that there isn’t some laundry lurking around here waiting to be found. Even if there is: I won’t do it. I have had it with laundry today. At least the laundering part, the sofa covers are drying as we speak. I also took out the trash. Three bags of trash. (See 1332h.) We are heavy on recycling here in Göteborg so we sort our trash. I was now down to the trash deposit, no we do not have a trash shoot in the hallway, we have a deposit in the middle of the yard, a building for itself, the cleanest trash room you’ll ever see, Hard Plastics, Compost and Burnable. (Everything is burnable I guess but it’s a special category; soft plastics mostly.) We also have, as categories, colored glass, plain glass, paper, carton, wellpapp, batteries, light bulbs, fluorescent lights and major trash. I really hope all this sorting is god for the environment.

1412h – Re-writing lecture notes. (Feeding them into my computer, reading them over.)

1435h – Done with re-writing one of two lecture notes. Stopping with that for a bit and continuing with the general tidying up thing (a lot of stuff isn’t where it is supposed to be in this appartment).

1440h – Didn’t generally tidy up. Rang an old friend and checked if we, Camilla and I could ride with him and his girlfriend to another old friend and his, and his girlfriends, birthday party. We probably could. Now we need a dog sitter.

1453h – Down to the laundry room and out with the Boo.

1516h – Back from the laundry room and walking the Boo. 1. I really hope the sofa covers dry up there in the drying cabbinet, they seemed very damp right now and we only have the laundry room until 1700h. 2. The Boo and I, mainly, if not only, the Boo, just went for a leg raiser around the rock, the Gigantic Rock that is!

1518h – Start making lunch (a bit late but so was breakfast), left over vegetarian stew so all I have to do is boil some pasta. During the boil I fold laundry, not the laundry from today though, no, last weeks laundry! Not yet folded. (Note to self: Do not, I repeat; do not put things on hold… nor postpone things).

1548h – Lunch! Also: Rob called and said that the guys over at cdon.com thought that our record had done all right. We did not get any exact numbers, we’re going to get them next week, but still! All right is all right in my book!

1558h – Done eating. Maybe just a tad fast… Starting dinner! Pizza. First prepare the dough, let it sit for an hour thenRock’n'Roll… but we have no yeast.

1559h – Run down to the store to get yeast… and maybe a little milk.

1610h – Back from the grocery store. Besides the stuff in the latest entry I also got Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Bananas and Apple Juice. It always is like that. You always get more than you think. I also popped into the laundry room to see hoe the sofa-covers were doing, and a god thing i did! I ran into the person who has booked the laundry room time after ours. i nicely asked her if I would be able to keep my sofa-covers in the drying cabinet after my time has run out, after 17ooh, no problem she said! Great! Might get them dry after all. Since the pizza takes about 1h25min to make (dough included) I’ve decided to put that on hold for a bit. 

1617h – Folding more laundry.

1637h – Done folding the laundry then neatly placing on the shelves. Between us Camilla and I have too many pairs of socks, TOO MANY I TELL YOU! I also made the bed, a bit late but now it’s done.

1638h – Taking down the last piece of Christmas decoration… A black star in the bed room.

1642h – Placing the now dry dishes on shelves and in drawers. All whilst listening to Familjen.

1648h – Preparing the apartment, picking up knick-knacks, guitars and dog bowls and such off the floor, for vacuuming!

1658h – Apparently Bosse did not like the way I made the bed. Just found him in it, the bed, and the covers were thrown around in a not-made-bed like matter, or perhaps a Bosse-made-bed matter…

1711h – Done with the first round of vacuuming in the living room. When I later put back the sofa-covers on ther will be feathers and stuff on the floor once again (down filling).

1712h – Re-writing lecture note two of two.

1721h – For the first time today I am starting to feel a little tired.

1730h – Down to the laundry room to get the sofa-covers… I hope there dry!

1801h – Camillas home, the covers are on the sofa and I’ve folded the last pieces of laundry. (I naturally forgot a big bag in the laundry room.)

1803h – Camilla said that she could do the vacuuming! WooHoo!

1804h – Continuing with the lecture Re-Write.

1815h – Done re-writing the second of two lectures!

1816h – Taking a well earned shower.

1832h – Done showering and now I smell like a bed of roses… IRON, I mean Iron. I smell like a bed… FACTORY! I smell like a factory of iron, steel and fire! (That sounds awful.) On wit pizza-dough making!

1847h – Now the dough has to sit for an hour. I am going to read a friends home exam in the philosophy of social science. I need to because I need to find one argument for Holism and one against Positivism.

1903h – Done for the day… just pizza and TV!

How was your day?
