According to WordPress, this is my 100th post. I wish I had something more substantial to say in it. I’ve spent most of the last 3 days huddled in bed drinking tons of water and taking ibuprofen. My Swedish hosts have been very kind and patient.
Yesterday, we had an an Alien movie marathon. Aliens is still the best one, because it’s that much more frightening seeing a crack marine squad get picked apart (“Game over, man, game over!”), plus Ripley becomes a total, uncompromising badass in that one.
My host also picked up some cool old phone equipment from a nearby electronics store to play around with. I tried to follow what was going on, but I’m really not feeling 100%. I hope tomorrow will be better, the local hackers are having a meeting at some coffee bar because their normal hackspace is being used for a punk show. I’m going to go if I feel up to it (to the hacker meeting, not the punk show. Definitely not up for a punk show.)
Feel better Brendan!
