continuation from yesterdays entry:

Him: We can go to Caroli.
Me: Yeah that sounds good.
Him: I was there yesterday and ordered a muffin but they didn’t have it.
Me: hmm ‘k. . .?
Him: Yeah, it was seasonal.
Me: The muffin was seasonal.
Him: yeah they were out of it because it was seasonal.
Me: *blank stare*
Him: They don’t have ‘em anymore.
Me: *confused* They don’t have muffins because they are seasonal?!
Him: yes.
Me: *flustered* I’m sorry, but I know Swedes have some weird ideas about things but MUFFINS not in season? Muffins are always in season. How can a muffin be seasonal!!? Come on!
Him: *pausing to think giving me ample time to stew*
Me: I am going to order a muffin and when they aren’t in I am going to ask them why MUFFINS are seasonal when they don’t have any. That is just ridiculous!
Him: You know—that one you had a few weeks ago.
Me: ooh the Semlor Muffin was seasonal. Well yeah. You really need to learn to be specific.

A lovely, misting afternoon, strolling down the walking street, arm in arm:

Me: ooh I really want some coffee
Him: I gotta poop.

Love is a many splendid thing.

I just went back to Zenni Optical’s website and found EIGHT more pairs I must own. I am antsy from excitement. I am dizzy from the thought of having choices. I am giddy from the prices. I am also cautiously waiting until I actually get the two pairs I ordered from them before I bust out the credit card and order these 4:

But in black. I like the red too…sigh.

but in black with pink on the inside

Looky at the heart!

and yes, IN GREEN!!!!

There is also a pair of purple and green ones that I loooove. sigh

I keep going back and finding more pairs I like! I think I need help.

(update…they will only let me order one pair free so I chose the purple ones. gotta mix it up a bit)

Yeah, so, you two terrific readers may remember my little post about embracing the whole four-eyes thing and going slightly overboard by ordering 4 pairs of glasses. Well, it seems I have 3 more on the way. Yep, I got a mail from a local eyeglass place that was offering the first 500 pairs of glasses orders free (only pay shipping) so I clicked and ordered. lol I could have kept ordering until the contest was over but I thought “why do I need 40 pairs of glasses”. Now I am kicking myself but anyway. So in addition to the lovely selection I have coming already I have:

these lovely purple ones coming.

these lovely blue ones and

these from Polaroid

Super excited.

Now I will be able to wear a different pair every day of the week!

I am so busy. I mean, busier than I have been in a long time which is why I have time to sit here and type in my blog, MEH.

ANYHOOT, beeeeee-zeeeee!

First, my coffee making skillz have dissipated into making dark, sharp tasting water. BLEEEEEK! Not sure what the hell-o is going on but fuuuuck! Nasty. I know this doesn’t fall into “busy” category but it talks to the state of mind that is creating this and therefore is relevant to the topic.
Second, I have just too many papers and presentations to do. TOO MANY. This is why one does not take a full load plus a class. Nope. Don’t do it!
I iz stoopid
Third, this apartment is trashed. I mean T-RASHED! The Boy is working, for now (his job is handing out permanent vacations and he one of the lucky ones who gets one) and he is tired. I am tired of reading books that are incomprehensible all the time. Neither one of us can be bothered to do anything about the state of the apartment. We both feel, however, that Zoe just doesn’t pull her own weight around here.
Fourth, the gym. That thing I really need to get my ass to so that it stops expanding. Time for it? Trying to make time but damn it is hard to get there when you are so tired by the time you get home.
Fifth, Project 365. I know…not important but it is one of the only things I do for fun anymore. How sad is that?
Sixth, radio show on monday nights. While not important it is something I enjoy doing even though I have to travel to get there, which costs money, which is something that is sorely lacking since I took up photography as a hobby and since The Boy will be on “vacation” for a while.

So, final research paper, not as “go to the library or copy stuff off the web” research paper,  is an empirical research paper which means I have to actually DO something(Goddess they expect me to do work!!! *le sigh*) and the oral presentation are both due in 3 weeks, pluuuuuus 2 other presentations(one due next week) and a 25 page *practice* thesis plus the random test thrown in for good measure all means that something has to give.

It will probably be my brain as I heard it packing up the other day.
