Something that is very on topic as of now in my life. Spiritually as well as physically.
Hiya there. Hope everyone has had a great Wednesday.
* I'm tired.
* I should be cleaning up and making food
* That's why I sit in front of the tv with my laptop
* Watching some lame Finnish reality-tv, scrolling gossip-sites on the net
* According to the weather forecast we won't have sun for at least a week, but more snow, strong winds and temperatures around -20'C
* Thank you weather gods, I am your loyal supporter
* (But now you could go and screw yourself. Sincerely, Hannah)
* Vancouver has got on to a very lousy start for the insanely pressured Finnish atletes
* Tonight the Finnish hockeyteam plays its first game, against Belarus. I'm pessimistic about the outcome. The ugly truth is, that Finland hasn't succeeded in hockey since 1995, when we won the World Championship. Coming second, third, fourth, well, it doesn't really count. Not when we talk about Finnish icehockey and the pride that comes with it. Icehockey makes grown men cry, makes people depressed and suicidal. Well not everyone, but it involves a lot of feelings, a lot of passion around here. It's our national game. I choose to not care though, much easier that way, ;).
(as long as we beat Sweden, that is always a must).
Why...? There's always this rivalry between Finland and Sweden, a competition in the competition. If Finland doesn't win, the only consolation will be if Sweden is below us in the ranking. It's always been like this, in everything. Usually playful, not bloody serious, but... Icehockey.... that's serious stuff. Finns still remember that grand moment in 1995 when we won, and not only won, but actually beat the Swedes in the final. A double pleasure. And when we have lost against Sweden in other finals, it's a double defeat. We also tell jokes about Swedes, and they about Finns, in very stereotypical ways.
Do these "rivalries" occur between other countries as well? Is there something like this between Canada and the US for instance? Ireland and the UK? In other forms? Would be interesting to know, :).
* And now I'm actually sitting here talking about icehockey and all that, which I'm not usually even interested in.... *sigh*. Get your ass up from the couch this instance Hannah, start the cooking, get the vacuum cleaner out. Now.
I'll try to catch up with you all during this week, I haven't had much time in the last couple of days. I'm sorry for my abscence... Still decided to upload, because it makes me feel that I'm at least taking some part in the community, and helps me to get involved again. Yep....

Several years ago we found this in a collection of vintage toy soldiers in an antique store. Boomer immediately eed upon seeing it, "Look! An actuary!" So we had to have it. Last night we watched an episode of Columbo in which toy soldiers figured prominently, so in honor of that, we had a photoshoot with our toy actuary soldier.
Oh, and it should be noted that we had the following exchange today:
Schnookie: "blah blah blah, dinner planning" (It may have been more detailed than that.)
Pookie: "You should aim to have dinner ready at 8, so we can eat during the game."
That's right -- "eat during the game." Sure, it's just the Hall of Fame game, which means it's really lame and we'll turn it off after 10 minutes, but still! It's an actual interesting sport, in an actual live sporting event. A game!!! The end is in sight!
