And it has been raining all day. Some of yesterday as well. Perfect Danish summer weather.<\/p>\n<p>I have been feeling a little sick the last couple of days. Nothing horrible, though. Just some queasiness. I&#8217;ll be fine, fine.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight my dad is coming home from Greenland. And this time it&#8217;s not just for the vacation. He is back for good. He is retiring from his profession as a schoolteacher. He&#8217;s not quite old enough for retirement, but he shall be going on &#8220;efterl?n&#8221; which is some kind of early retirement thing I guess. So funnily enough we will both be retiring at the same time. Hah.  Who would have ever guessed that.<\/p>\n<p>In many ways it will be nice to have him home. I just hope there will be peace in the house, not too much arguing. And then hopefully I will be moving out soon anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of which, I got mailbombed today. No less than 14 letters from Brabrand Boligforening. The housing organization thing. So I have been offered 14 places. That doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;ll get them though. The 25 highest placed on the waiting list get offered the place. Because usually a lot of people turn down the offers, for various reasons. I&#8217;m listed 6-7 on several of them. That should give me a really good chance. But I have to check them out first. Some of them seem a little too expensive and some of them too small. And I don&#8217;t know if they accept pets yet. And so on and so forth. I might end up turning them all down. But if some of them are acceptable then.. *crosses fingers*.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not in the best neighbourhood though. It&#8217;s one of the &#8220;socially challenged&#8221; places with lots of immigrants and low-status families. I am low status myself of course, what with the disability retirement. My mother commented that they &#8220;turned night into day and day into night there&#8221;. Meaning that there&#8217;s a lot of noise at night I guess. And I think it&#8217;s up there that there has been some clashes between second-gen immigrants and police too. So I don&#8217;t know. Maybe I should hold out and wait for something better to come along. I am keen to move out soon though. We&#8217;ll see when I have researched the offers a little.<\/p>\n<p>It was just kinda funny, my mother brought in the mail and she was sitting at the dinner table, counting out loud all the letters for me. I usually don&#8217;t get <i>that<\/i> much mail. (Hint: mail address on the right, postcards accepted).<\/p>\n<p>I have a fun surprise coming up soon, hopefully. Might be a week or two. But I just wanted to tease you with it anyway. It&#8217;s something that I am willing to bet that none of you will see coming. Nothing nuclearly large, but fun I hope. Tickle tickle tease.<\/p>\n<p>Oh the nerve of me.<\/p>\n<p>PS. Mads on youtube: <a HREF=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/watch?v=y-9HWTYBaZU\">http:\/\/youtube.com\/watch?v=y-9HWTYBaZU<\/a>. Some fun scenes. Starting with a mighty chewing. There are these long stilky weeds growing close to where I live. I broke one off and brought it for the lambs and goats and they loved it. Juicy and crunchy, making for great chewing. And then some possessivenes as Mads chases the other goats away from me. And tries to intimidate the lambs. And then some baahing. He is quite a character.<\/p>\n<p>PPS. Watch out for lambs. I know they&#8217;re around somewhere.
