And so I return from a quest. The quest of hiking around this island, which I had taken upon myself to endeavour. On a bright and sunny morning (as are most mornings around here, but still) I walked out through the door of the telescope building, and set forth upon…

Quoth the raven: I can has ur sammich plz?
You’ll never believe what happened to me today! As I was sitting outside, eating my lunch, a raven landed on the telescope building. I recognised him (by the ring around his leg) as one of the two tame ravens around here, Carmelo. I tossed him a piece of my sandwich,…

I’ve got so much to say and life is so fantastic
And so once again I end up in a state where I’ve got so overwhelmingly much to say that nothing at all comes out. I just don’t know where to begin. So many wonderful, strange, chaotic, confusing, interesting, painful and joyous things have happened to and around me the past…

Sonata Arctica on a perfect Saturday
Still in a mellow sort of euphoric rush after having seen Sonata Arctica live in concert yesterday in Copenhagen, together with a loved one. The music, the energy, the joy. Headbanging, jumping up and down, and singing along to songs like this one: Ah, pure bliss. And we also had…

A new year: contemplations and resolutions
2013 is here, and after a monstrosity of a sleep-in (even by my standards), I thought this might be an appropriate time to reflect on the year that has come to an end, and perhaps share a few of my hopes for the new one. 2012 was a hell of…

Sunday, bloody Sunday
That feeling when you’ve been coding all day and your program is fucked up but you just can’t see what you did wrong and then there turns out to be a friggin’ minus sign missing in one of the equations which in some magical way solves everything when you put…
