I’m back at home again! Came home the day before yesterday, late in the evening. On monday evening my parents and I went to my grandparents who live pretty close to Stockholm. My grandmother gave me this lovely crochet quilt! I’ve been wanting one for a long time, and have been jealous of Suss’ one we have in the kitchen. And she also gave me  some other things (books, textiles and a very cute orange briefcase filled with oil paints!) but the uploading function of this blog just decided to not work. I’ll show you when it does again.

Then we went to Stockholm over the day. First my mom spoiled me and bought me stockings. Then I met up with my loved partner in crime and ex flatmate Adina. She had dyed her hair back to red which made me so nostalgic for when we were 15 I almost cried.
Mom, her and I went to the photography museum and took a peak at the Annie Leibovitz-exhibition. Which was pretty nic/ok/whatever. I didn’t care for it that much. Fun to have seen I guess but I am not really one of those photo appreciative people. We also ate a pretty great dinner at Hermans & I also drank a vegan latte later to see if caffeine would make me feel very weird since I hadn’t had caffeine in months. (it didn’t, I was surprised!) Adina showed me Goodstore where we got excellent vegan sausages that we ate waiting for the train back home. Aaand I found the Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood at a second hand book store! I was thrilled, since I finished Year of the Flood I had been contemplating ordering this one even though I barely have money for food these days. And I got another of Tora Dahls books; Brevet till Leonard. And I also bought a gorgeous dress which I will photograph when I’m wearing it out the next time. Couldn’t resist it, I had to change into it instantly, in the store because it was so great.

The train home was an hour delayed and on the train I had to listen to a seriously annoying american guy talk about his boring life to an unimpressed swedish girl answering in bad english. Painful hours, since it’s pretty impossible to focus on reading when someone is talking loud in english and you can’t escape and zone out.
Yesterday I read, did practical things like buy files for my company and was bored. I finished Dark Water by Joyce Carol Oates, an ok book I guess. Starting to think that maybe I don’t like her anymore and maybe should’t waste more time reading her books.
Right now I am waiting for Linnea and Tobias to come over and play cards with me for a while, then we’re having a dinner in the collective!
