Not awake

When flipping through iphoto this morning, I stumbled over these two pictures. I remember taking them in the subway on my way to work. It was one of those mornings where I felt very much like a foreigner, not at all in harmony with my environment and I had a 700 meter long to-do-list in my bag. Read the rest of this entry »

Cheaper when not in prison

Everyone is busy analyzing the Swedish election: A racist party made it into government.

Away with it

It is lunchtime and in between two meetings, planning the year 2011 and 2012.
