There are so many Things that have happened lately, it's hard to put them down into grammatically functioning English sentences, but I will try my bestest. (damnit, I mean best)
Thing 1: I met with my Poly Sci Advisor who only wanted to meet with me because his wife was a resident in Sweden for 20 years. He's from Iran so I have a hard time understanding him, but I did understand him listing every possible bad thing about Sweden including suicide and alcoholism. Oh, but he did offer to introduce me to Sven the Swedish Exchange Student (Score!).
Thing 2: I went for a walk last night and decided to jog for a small stretch. An older man jogged past me but then stopped and God Bless His Soul, asked me "Are your running the marathon this Saturday?" I said no, and he kept on "1/2 marathon? 2 mile?" . My answer didn't change until he asked what side of the trail I liked to run on. I picked a side because I didn't have the heart to tell him I don't actually ever run and that I'm not sweaty in appearance because I had walked the whole trail. He jogged by, and Damn him, I had to swing my arms fast the rest of my walk when I turned around on the trail just in case he saw me again, that way I could easily slip into jog mode.
Thing 3: It's getting so warm here. I usually don't care for warm weather, but it's a pleasant change of pace from fucking freezing.
Thing 4: I have developed fears about walking through tunnels and under bridges, especially the one on my walking trail I go on every night. I'm always afraid I will get raped in there, or that a vampire girl like in "Let the Right One In" will kill me, or worst, a squirrel or chipmunk will fall on me when I come out. Martin has now deemed it "The Tunnel Of Irrational Fears"
Thing 5: Martin recieved a form from the Swedish Migration board today!!!!!!!! This means he fills it out and we are all done with our part of the deal. We just wait. This is a big step!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Things are great.
