It’s absolutely dreadful, deep-freezing really, to try start re-writing a blog after an unannounced radio-silence-for-a-break of over a year. With some run-of-the-mill blog that would be just a matter of finding the hottest new thing that’s related to whatever electronic cat-scratchers you write about, and picking up on that like nothing ever happened. But with Finnish [...]

All the Best Laid Plans
There are those days when you only have one thing in your mind from the beginning of it and yet you never get around to actually do it. Things that are inevitable just keep pouncing in front of you like a cougar in heat and you are totally screwed in regards to what you were [...]
“I want to move to Finland!”
It’s Thursday, not that long ago. Early morning for me, so it’s probably closer to noon out there. I think I am finally waking up. Slowly, but surely. Left eyelid. Right eyelid. That’s it. Wide awake. Feels like it’s been a long night of research. I look around, searching for clues to my location. After [...]
Moodswings, pt. 1
Maturing is a theme that’s going on. I aged a year the other day. And the blog is reaching the first turning point. I have a sort of a creeping feeling of the fact that I should move on to phase two with it soon. Would like to keep things the way they are sometimes. But [...]
Partying Without Moving
I had the perfect trifecta of nightmares the other night. First I had a horrible work-nightmare where I couldn’t understand one bit of the stuff I was supposed to do. Then there was a blog-nightmare in which they had hacked Finnish Beauty and turned it into an adult site about gay Moroccan soccer players. And [...]
Adventure
This is one of those cases where I just have to begin by apologizing. Been a while. It’s not really my fault or anyth… ah, screw it. Been lazy. Been a bit thoughtful about what I can write about. Making excuse after excuse of not to write about what’s been happening. Stopping that now and [...]
Srsly
The thing about writing this blog is that it forces me to a situation where I can’t stand still. I can’t get caught in any sort of status quo in my life. Even if that would be going out and partying, like it has pretty much been. A lot. Lately. So, need to go out [...]
Balance
It’s been a bit slow lately. Way too much work-related stuff in the way of actual time to be happy. And my social activity has been pretty much been limited to me scouting for locations for my upcoming birthday party. And while interesting, not something I want to blog about just yet. “You know… Your [...]
Crash and Burn, Live and Learn
This is actually a post that splintered from the Synchronicity one somewhere around halfway through writing it. I realized I was talking about two things and that I had a lot more to say about both of them than was practical for a single entry. So now there are two. It’s one of these days. [...]
Milestones
It’s funny how these things go. This is post number 20 of this blog. I’m not sure if I ever planned it to go this far or if I was expecting it to die way before now. I have this urge to read Transmetropolitan again, to get back into the “angry columnist” mode and start [...]
