Sauna
Friday, March 7th, 2008An important part of integrating into Scandinavia is ofcourse getting into the sauna culture…and the easiest way then is to have a sauna in house,so…a sauna it is! We picked it up tonight and found a suitable place in one of the uhhh, five spare rooms! 😉
It’s gonna be a HOT weekend!!
DSC & HitTest Live?
Thursday, March 6th, 2008Adam Curry is experimenting these days with so-called ‘DSC Live’ shows, basically a standard Daily Source Code with the possibility for people to join the show Live via Talkshoe (non audio in the chatroom, or audio by dialing in)…heaps of fun and the format is really working.
Although I still feel he needs a sidekick (I actually volunteered for that ;)) or at least someone to filter incoming calls and streamline the selection of topics/discussion.
One thing that definitely should happen is to add a live version of Jan Polet’s HitTest…I don’t see any technical obstruction. Just imagine all the peeps participating in the DSC Live show taking the HitTest simultaneously…yay!
Mouse arm
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008Just a short update on my RSI (?!) problems…short since I’m not able to write that much.
I went to see the doctor this morning, who confirmed that the pain is caused by irritation in the tendon soft tissue, located solely in my wrist and underarm (not coming from my neck/shoulder); it is a so-called mouse arm.
She was able to hit the right (=painful) spots at once (and even seemed to enjoy it? ;)), pretty painful to be honest.
Avoiding using the mouse with my righthand and overall giving the arm rest, along with some medication and gel to massage should get me over it. I’ll go for that!
RSI?
Tuesday, March 4th, 2008The pain in my right hand, wrist and arm didn’t decrease, it actually seemed to get worse overnight! 🙁
Am starting to believe this really might be RSI related…will see a doctor tomorrow morning, fingers crossed (well, that’s not really possible in my current condition to be honest…)
One year ago…
Monday, March 3rd, 2008Am not the type of guy to look back that often, still, last years March 3 was the first day of my (chosen) unemployment! It was a Saturday then, so it didn’t really feel like a day without a job, but it marked my new beginning, which brought me so far to Norway. No regrets on that decision!!
24, Season 4
Sunday, March 2nd, 2008We’ve started watching Season 4 of ‘24‘.
Hehe, will be a couch potato the coming week, trying to finish the season before my brother will visit us coming weekend!
Bunny, bunny, rabbit, rabbit
Saturday, March 1st, 2008New day of the month and since the first thing I said today was ‘rabbit, rabbit‘ I’ll receive good luck for the rest of March, great!
