blåmerke

Ouch. I rammed my left thigh into the corner of the couch this morning. It's gonna leave a really pretty blåmerke.

Happy New Year! I brought in 2007 with Panama, Hanne, Marjaana, chicken tandoori, red wine, and fireworks. It was a fun and fairly exhausting evening. There was a huge "2006" sign (made out of torches I would imagine) on the moutainside on the mainland that changed magically to "2007" at the stroke of midnight. I wondered about the people up there whose job it was to extinguish some of the torches so the 6 became a 7. Brrrrrrr.
I have spent a few New Year's Eves looking down from a mountaintop, but this time I was gazing up at one. If I choose to interpret that metaphorically, which I do, then I assume it means that I will face some challenges during the coming year. But to be honest, that sounds really good to me. Perhaps I've been cool-breezin' a little too much as of late. So, to my metaphoric fortune I say simply: bring it on.

Peace.
