C'est la vie

 My friend just texted me to tell me she just bought two tickets to see this band, and I was so excited for about 40 seconds, until I find out I won't actually be here the day they're playing.



Sad. But at least we're seeing Little Dragon a few weeks earlier:

Could life be any better?

Cable car museum

I didn't think I would enjoy the cable car museum as much as I did. It is a beautiful piece of San Francisco history. I have always loved this way if traveling but as of today I think being a cable car driver is the coolest job ever.

Friday night in China Town

The cab driver who were taking us to the Great American Music Hall last night got into a fight with another cab driver in the middle of China town.
They both left their car and started punching each other. Then the other cab driver opened his trunk and took out his tire iron. Our cabbie got hit over the head.

When they finally stopped fighting the driver came back to the car and asked us if we should drive on. He had a lot of blood on his hands from the head wound.
We suggested that the hospital might be a better idea.

Forbrydelsen

I really enjoyed the AMC remake of the Danish TV-series, The Killing, not least for the lovely Joel Kinnaman. But the Danish original, 20 episodes long, is much better.
Copenhagen in November. The back drop is perfect for a claustrophobic murder case led by a detective with tunnel vision.

Lost wedding ring

Richard has lost his wedding ring three times. Once it was sent back from a hotel in Vegas. Once it was misplaced in the bathroom and never found again. He had to buy a new band. This time, it's somehow got lost somewhere in the holiday travels.
I get the message: you don't like jewelry!
Or are you trying to tell me something?

I'm back!

Conversation between two 20something's in the queue at Super Burger:
- So you're a vegetarian, and you don't eat fish? Do you eat egg? You do? So if you eat egg you can eat roe? And caviar? It's like....fish eggs, I guess.
Her partner i quiet for a while so she continuous:
- I guess you might have to kill the fish to get the roe. So it might not work.
There is another pause.
- So are you gonna order the hamburger, or go for something vegetarian?

Back from summer

It's scary how quickly those summer holiday weeks pass us by. While we're right inside them we decide to treasure every second, but when you're one the plane back home you have a distinct feeling you didn't make the most of it.
It was lovely, all the same.
Beautiful, relaxing and full of happiness.
Every second of it.
