Fredag

Which is really just regular old Friday, but I like the sound of free-day. Guess you can take the girl out of the US and all that! I guess I never realised before just how special our great constitution is to protect our right to think and say whatever we darn well please without hating and censorship. I guess I'm just a proud American! That is all I have to say about that.

After being so excited by days and days of sunshine (even if it was still pretty chilly), the last couple of days have been dull and depressing and reminding that we are still in the grips of winter for a little while yet. Winter in stockholm is just so loooooooong. I swear it has been more than just a few months since it was light and warm. I swear I've had at least two birthdays since then.

Actually I did have a birthday last week, yay me! It's not polite for a lady to tell her age, so let's just say it was a digit closer to Botox. Which actually I think I would be too scared to go through (I read it's actual poison - can anyone explain why it doesn't kill you through your skin???) but a digit closer to people smiling at me while thinking in their heads that I could use a little tweaking here and there. Although probably not so much in Sweden, you see a lot of "growing old gracefully" women here, I guess whatever floats your boat. I say whatever makes you look your best so you feel your best is a good thing. As long as it doesn't actually poison you, because there would be not much point in being hot and dead.
