MP3

I have just finished converting my CD collection over to the mp3 format. I contemplated a bit whether to use WMA or MP3 - but ended up with mp3 since I think it is more useful regarding the number of portable devices that support it.

I guess I have to buy myself a mp3 player now. But - am I the ONLY one who doesn't think that the white iPod looks good? The design is ok - but WHITE?

Oh, yeah - I ended up with 4289 elements on my playlist according to Windows Media Player.

What am I going to do with all my CD's now?

Skiing

We went skiing yesterday, and brought with us on of K's friends.

Mr Rabbit

We found a lot of rabbit tracks around the cabin this time. We also found some fox tracks, but by then we had left the camera in the cabin.

Winter vacation



This week K has her winter vacation and we have spent some days at our cabin in Sulitjelma. It has been pretty cold with around -12 C, but it has been sunny and nice. We have no electricity at this cabin so we have been reading in candlelight and keeping the fire going to stay warm at evenings.

"Beard"

Ever since I was a teenager I have shaved my face, and since then I have often wondered if there ever was any beard to talk about. Two weeks ago I decided to check – and I stopped shaving. Below is the result.
Not much compared to those who have a real beard. But now I know.
The whole thing went off only a few minutes after this picture was taken. Good to be myself again.

235.565

That is today’s latest official number of deaths caused by the Tsunami last Christmas.

It has been a while since I wrote my last entry in this blog. Hopefully I shall do better in the days to come. It is however impossible not to include a few words about the Tsunami disaster after such a long break. I did not have any close friends or family in the affected area, but at work we are missing one of our always happy and smiling hostesses. My thoughts go to her husband and family, and all others affected around the globe.
