.................I cant remember where I found it but true indeed.

I am so fucking jet lagged it hurts. Just got back from the States and then slept 18 hours straight just to spend the next 2 nights completely sleepless. So here I am in another hotelbed down south in Sweden. Sleep is no where near... Really need to cause getting up early for another day in the festival hazzle but here I am on myspace. I've told you already that Im feeling tired of the internet and its endless information stream but at this point there is actually nothing else to do.
Im debating life and its issues but non the wiser.
At the moment I just want to have a sex change and eat the world like an oyster. Have I told you this really is a mans world in many ways? Well non the wiser.

Female power.

Tickle me with a feather please miss Penelope Cruz.

Honeys. Just for the record, I'm not whining or complaining about my life on this blog or the others. I know for some people it may sound like that but believe me I'm not. I feel truly blessed to be alive and that my mind still floats like the ocean. It's just that I'm what you call Nordic and aware that the trees have scars and flaws. But I think its beatiful. Believe me, I'm not whining.

Tick tack, it's all fleeting and boom, I'm still alive. Baboom, still alive. Love is longing.

I long every minute of the day, but that don't mean I'm not living.

Hipsters and dipsters. The sun is shining and the flip flops are out. Back to the roots and back to the bottoms of bottoms where the sea is muddy. It’s not like I've only been swimming... I’m actually writing some well needed lyrics and thinking thinking thinking of the next step. All very mysterious and secret still... Anyways there is a lot going on and the summer has just begun...
