Mental housekeeping
Watching a Norwegian movie called "Ti kniver i hjertet" right now, it’s running on national TV. There’s a kind of "Lynchian" feel to it. My neck hurts. I guess from sleeping too long… I just didn’t wanna get up, I was hugging my pillow dreaming of holding my dear fiancée in my arms. I miss you, baby.
I realized yesterday.. well over these last few days it has been becoming clearer I guess: I still have a tendency to get caught up in ideas, struggling with one thought blocking out all others. I wish I knew if there was a cure for this or not. The meds I’m taking sure didn’t fix the problem yet though. So I think I should make an appointment with the doc and discuss stopping the medication, as it isn’t working. It’s making me fat and sweaty instead (and to be honest, I’m not to crazy about that). These meds have the side effect that they make perspiration increase notably as well as weight gain. And, gaining weight also increase the perspiration (at least I think so), making the effect even worse. Gosh, this really sounds bad when I’m reading it, like I’m grossly overweight and sweating like a pig all the time LOL – it’s not that bad, but it is bad enough that I’m suddenly quite conscious about it, and that makes bad enough for me.
So, I’m going back to Taiwan in a couple of months, leaving on the 31st of August actually. I’ll be travelling with my fiancée, she’s coming here in a month or so and we can spend the summer together. As last time she was here I’ll still have to work, but this time I don’t have to spend a couple of hours driving back and forth in addition – and I think Åsane is slightly more exciting than Klokkarvik. I mean, Klokkarvik is the center of the world and all, obviously – but Åsane might be a pleasant change.
Seems like business is picking itself up at the store these days, although last summer seems to have been busier so far. We’ve been doing a lot of required changes lately, so Steffen and Thomas doesn’t work with us anymore. Steffen got a job at another Spaceworld store, Thomas is going to do his military service in a little bit and seemed happy to be able to enjoy his summer. Lisbeth is still with us and so far seems to be doing great. We’ve also moved around some of the stuff in the store, and I’m debating with myself wether or not to move the counter a little, too – actually, almost back to its former position.
Well, Poirot is on, and I’m feeling hungry. I’ll check back in before long, perhaps.
