The olympics...

What to say...
I'm not an athlete.
I don't do sports - simply because I don't like it.
I don't like football, I don't like swimming (unless it's in the ocean in the summer), I don't like wintersports of any kind...
I'm basically just not into sports.
So you can imagine my frustration when I sit down to watch a bit of TV at night, and all channels are showing reruns of last nights olympic activities.
I'm saying reruns because the olympics are in Canada and thus in a completely different timezone ... which also means that you can read everything in the news early morning and have the results without having to watch anything at all... So again -> frustrating.
I'd say that about the only thing even slightly interesting would be curling.
Norway has a pretty good team and was so so close to kicking some canadian ass last night. Sadly, the boys missed by a single point, but came so close.
I'll be keeping my eye on them, but thats about it. :)

Når ord blir fattige.

Når ord blir fattige og hjertet blør, da finner jeg det naturlig og greit å bruke ord som andre har skrevet. Et dikt som jeg selv har funnet styrke i mang en gang. Først da jeg som 15-åring mistet en betydelig person i mitt liv, og senere da jeg mistet mitt eget barn. Ord som er så sterke for meg at det bringer den smerten jeg dypt begraver til overflaten gjennom den første linjen. Jeg vet hvordan de har det nå, de som sitter igjen med et barn for lite. De som ikke kan forstå at de aldri mer skal høre stemmen til deres nære. Jeg vet hvor vanskelig det er å skulle åpne øynene og møte en ny dag. Og så en til. Og så en til. Jeg ble fortalt, gang på gang, at alt blir bedre etterhvert. Men ingen fortalte meg noen gang hvordan jeg skulle leve akkurat da. Ingen kunne si meg hvor jeg skulle hente styrke til å stå opp og ta den dusjen om morgenen, smøre ei skive til frokost og komme seg på jobb. Og ingen fortalte meg hvordan jeg skulle klare å takle demonene som fortsatt besøker meg når det er ...

Finally!!!

After what feels like forever, my wish has finally come true. Joey DeGraw is coming to Oslo to play! It's been a spring full of emailing, calling and a lot of organizing to try and get Joey a gig over here. It's felt like a ton of work, yet I didn't really get anywhere. Then my friend Monica stepped up and got Joey a gig at a small, but very cozy pub called Buckley's in Oslo. I'm exited. Thats an understatement! I get to see Joey in the city I live in. No fuzz with travelling and no stress what so ever. It will be amazing. All I need to do is to sit down with a drink and enjoy some great music. This summer is saved, no matter what happens, cuz I get to see Joey DeGraw LIVE! :)

Before.
