Traveling Thru Space and Time Simlutaneously

A Comic Sketch of an Old Dream

Me and my girlfriend are driving down the road, when I notice the mountain range to our left is attracting thousands of thunder bolts. They are blitzing down into the mountaintops, and going horizontally between the giant rocks. I'm so caught up in this spectacle, that I apparently forget to keep the car on the road.

I try to get back on the road, but overcorrect, and we end up plunging out from a cliff on the other side. We are about to crash onto the ground, where many other drivers have met the same fate as us, when my alarm goes off (!) and I'm brutally jerked out of the dream. The whole experience was quite unnerving.

Blogger.com seems to think I'm japanese, btw.

Fish Soup

I work at a dollar store in Lund, that keeps eight ten-gallon fish tanks for decoration. I've been hired as the tank guy for two years, it was a job for extra money that I got right after I started studying at the university there. It's interesting to spend four hours with fish, changing their water, trading them around the tanks (occasionally), and, as happened today, in the process dropping them on the floor (oops).

I guess you can get emotionally attached to fish in some way. I do feel sorry for their tiny lives inside their glass cages. I know from the fish tank 101 webpages I read after getting the job, that they do like to hang around their own kind. Certain fish dies if left alone. Yet they don't seem to take very big interest in each other, even if those two suckfish guys that eat algae always swim together.

Today I set loose ten Hemigrammus erythrozonus in the tank with the most shrubby undergrowth. I think that a couple of them are [insert aquarist term for pregnant], so I felt that they should have some shelter should they actually survive to lay their eggs. We'll see about that.

In its infacy

I need a purpose with my life. Work 8 hours, play 8 hours, sleep 8 hours doesn't quite cut it for me. I go to a college that I like and I have a loving girlfriend I adore. But there's something missing. I want to tell the world who I am! There's so many ideas inside my head that could come to use for someone else!

Actually, I don't get that many ideas on a daily basis, only when I sit down and consciously write down random ramblings, quite like this. I need more ideas. New ideas are a reason to live.

Solution: start blogging! It's the latest fad and all the kids are going wild about it, and it gives me a reason to think about the outside world. Maybe I will even meet some new friends. Blogger friends.

There's just no end to the possibilities. So here I am. Blog you!
