Dicipline (or lack thereof)

The other day I was concerned that my lack of dicipline would set me back in my quest for the two drivers liences that I am gunning for. This would prove to be a valid concern since I did indeed book a trip to Dublin just one day after the last entry. Cudos to Wonks who saw it coming btw.
In my defence I got very cheap seats on the plane and I have never been to Ireland so it was well past due. Guinness brewery here we come! Licences will not be set back too much I hope. It is still the plan that I will have that mc licence by this coming summer.


In other news, me Packe and Peder went off to Örebro the other day for the away game Örebro-GAIS. It was a miserable game in a miserable town, and we spent 10-11 hours on a bus getting there and back. I ventured to claim that that in itself takes dicipline to do, but the answer I got back was off course that it has nothing do to with dicipline and all to do with stupidity. But that was from someone living in Stockholm so what can you expect?

All in all it was a good day although a win would have made it sooo much better naturally.

In a last minute claim of dicipline I can at least report that I have in one day done the dishes, the laundry AND cleaned the flat. I felt very proud of the achievement. "Not very manly, is it?" was the answer from Stockholm...

Money,money,money. Moooney...

And now for the problem of the day. As you may know I save money for the distant goal of getting an mc and the neccesary licence. But I also am one of thoose people that has that sweet instinct to get rid of any money I manage to get my hands on.

So I am at just this moment fighing the urge to spend. What I will spend money on is not known. It changes constantly. This night alone I have gone through the following idéas:

  • Laptop (mainly so that I can play Football Manager in the sofa)
  • Digital Photoframe (For no reason whatsoever)
  • Planetickets to Dublin or some such (So that I can buy a pint of Guinness in an irish pub in ireland insead of an irish pub in Göteborg)
So far I have managed to withstand the urge to impulse buy something online, but I make no guarantees...

Pain to the Max!


"Sooner or later it was going to catch up with you. You'd find that lady luck was a whore and you were fresh out of cash"
-Max Payne (from the game, not the movie)

And there is a reason that I take a quote from the games and not the movie since it was way too little quality "Max Payne-feeling" in the movie. The games are all about the cool comments and the atmosphere.
The movie only ever gets that feeling right a couple of times towards the end.


Still a good enough movie, perfect for a hang-over choice. And Mila Kunis from That 70's Show acctually works pretty well in her femme fatale role in this movie. Took me a while to even realize it was her.

All in all I give it 3/5 and recommend that you watch it. Do it.... *shaking fist*

All Hail the 80's! (part one)

It has come to my attention that some people have no idea what Critters is. This is clearly unacceptable. But it gives me a perfect reason to start a new sub-section of the blog: The 80's Nostalgia Section! Because upon hearing of this borderline heretic admission regarding this cult classic*, and his lack of knowledge thereof, I naturally have to educate the public in this matter.
So here is the trailer for the first movie, enjoy!



And if you liked it I have the first three movies at home for you to watch. If you haven't seen any you had damn well better watch them regardless of your oppinions of the trailer.

And I do appologize for the color of the text but it can't be helped, it's an 80's entry after all...

* Well, some might claim this to be so, that is a fact since I am someone.
