Update your bookmarks or favorites: skogsgaang.swe.name is a better way to get here. I’m going to search more actively for another bloghost since google-owned blogger is doing things I don’t like. I’ll just update mentioned url to point at the new location when I’ve found one.

We were out walking today. After my appointment with the psychlady we headed for Kyrkberget and the track behind the church. Labolina got her first leash-free run in the woods and some blueberries. As usual, she wouldn’t follow me when I moved away from Jenny but ran between us. When I called for her to come to me in the forest, she turned back to the track and had to be called back. I found a small path and decided to follow it a bit down the slope, then through the blueberry spigs back to Jenny, but Labolina thought it better to rush off into wilderness to search for her lost beloved mistress. I went back to the track, calling for her while doing so, and met Jenny. We slowly walked back up to where I left her and kept calling for her. After a minute or so we heard a high-pitched cry from far between the trees and I went back in to meet her. She came speeding like a gazelle towards and past me, with a big shiny smile.

We walked around Kyrkberget to Baksjön and back home and now I’m asleep again.

You scored as Satanism. Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Satanism! Before you scream, do a bit of research on it. To be a Satanist, you don’t actually have to believe in Satan. Satanism generally focuses upon the spiritual advancement of the self, rather than upon submission to a deity or a set of moral codes. Do some research if you immediately think of the satanic cult stereotype. Your beliefs may also resemble those of earth-based religions such as paganism.

I would have said I am more atheistic or pagan or agnostic but maybe this is true. True, as in it’s my direction of views, as I’m not religious (yet).

Preparing for war

21 augusti, 2006

Varmvattnet har varit borta hela dagen. Vattnet är inte helt kallt, det kan med bara lätt överdrift kallas ljummet. Jag väntade och väntade men märkte ingen skillnad så jag bestämde mig för att duscha ändå. Jag brukar aldrig vrida termostaten under 38° så jag kände mig modig när jag klev in. Efter några minuter blev vattnet rejält hett under några sekunder, för att sen variera mellan normalvärme och halvkallt. Jag blev klar på 20 minuter, så fort har jag inte duschat på evigheter. Det är ganska skönt att inte bli trött av att duscha, jag kanske ska försöka skynda mig med det oftare.

Det blev ingen sömn inatt, vi pratade filosofi istället. När diskussionerna var slut satte vi oss vid varsin dator och var läskigt sociala. Jag har läst, pratat och diskuterat hela dagen. Nu ska hunden ut.

I think autumn is coming. A few days ago we both felt it when we woke up. It had been cloudy during the night and rained when we slept.

Bär

We’ve picked some berries. We’ve bought rubberboots for me. We’ve ordered and received a waterboiler. I unpacked the old computer and installed Ubuntu in it. I’ve struggled with it for hours and can’t really understand it. I brushed the hound today. Depression took me a few hours ago and I’m not going to be able to do all the things I was going to.

I don’t want more unhappiness, I’m so sick and tired of it. No more, not now.

Labolina med boll. 10/8 2006, it was so warm and Labolina had lots of energy so we went out.

Possible connection issues, disconnected. Disconnected, disconnected.

Sommarlåten

I was so tired and so worn, I wanted to go to bed at seven. Now it’s six, eleven hours later, and I’m still awake. [] was very interesting reading. Now it is time and words have been spilled. ”Tomorrow”: to the library.

We rot in eternity! And when eternity has passed we are no more. He had visions but rejected them, calling them dreams. Are the trolls the pre-civilization humankind I have been looking for? Tell me.

The turn on

8 augusti, 2006

I just read. I read the novel Eleonora by Edgar Allan Poe, in a book, in Swedish. The first I’ve finished reading in a long time, and now I hope to speed through the other three librarybooks I got. Nico recommended it, said it was a sad story and that anyone reading it without sheding a tear is a machine. It didn’t move me but it was well told with fine descriptions. Good story, unexpectedly abrupt ending.

It’s been so hot lately.

Jenny read a book named Spökplatser på Gotland tonight, and told me about much of it’s contents. One story, the one about the evil Taksteinar and his glass-sailing banesman, made me very interested. I googled the name and found a publication from 1905 on the tale for sale on the SVAR library site. It’s rather inexpensive so I ordered it right away, a still remaining unsold copy.

I finished the undergroundblackmetalcompilation this evening, after working on it for several months. I named it Oväsen. Jenny helped me put the first tracks in good order.

I’ve used too much of our monthly transfer quota, I wonder if we’ll hit the cap even before Jenny has started contributing to the load. I unpacked her computer onto the kitchen table today after we got a delivery confirmation from IKEA with a preliminary delivery date 30/8. That’s too long to wait, we’ll use the cuttingboard for dinnertable until we get our desks.

No ha Jonsoknatta kome

2 augusti, 2006

I did rise from sleep of fire
To listen to the radio where educated Men spoke
of sleeping in the past.

Vak upp, vak upp både aker og eng!
No ha de søve so lengje i seng,
og no ha det vore både snjo or regn,
men no ha Jonsoknatta kome.

Statt no upp du Bjålandsmann
med dine late drengjer.
Soli skine på Kleivefjødd
og du have søve så lengje.

Soli skin ivi Honnåskleivan
og ned ivi Bjålands engjir.
Statt no upp du Bjålandsbonde
med dine late drengjir.

Vak upp, vak upp både aker og eng!
No ha de søve so lengje i seng,
og no ha det vore både snjo or regn,
men no ha Jonsoknatta kome.

Vak no upp du min Bjålands Mari!
Vak upp og mjølke din ku.
Soli skin yver bydunni,
og ennu søve du.

Soli skine nord og ned
yver Bjålands fjos.
Vak no upp du min Bjålands Mari,
no er dagen ljos.

Folque – No ha Jonsoknatta kome (trad.)
