Sweden celebrated mothers day last weekend, and I surprised my mom with cake. Its not much of a surprise on mothers day but anyhow. Ill include a little film of the cake when I have downloaded it off the Flip.
INSERT MOVIE CLIP HERE
After having a cup of coffee we took a trip to see my grandmother and brought my mom along so we could spend mothers day with two generations of mothers. My grandmother was in good spirit and she was happy to see us all, she hadn’t seen my girlfriend in quite while. She wished us both good luck with the move and everything, so that was nice. Hopefully the weather is nice the next time we go and visit her so we can bring Loki with us as she likes cats and wanted to see him again. Also we need too bring one of the cookbooks with us, its one with classic Swedish recipes that we are planning on bringing with us when we move, and my grandmother wanted to have a look at it and see what new recipes there are.
We also had a nice conversations about when my mom moved away to work and got too here stories that I haven’t heard before which was nice. Especially one about an old record player and how my grandfather drove a long way to mail her a transistor radio so they could listen to popular music and not just old hymns and stuff like that.
This is turning out to be one off those crap days…again. Everybody keeps complaining about the weather but I can really care, its not that cold but given its windy. Lots of accidents in and around town because of the weather, might shoot a video of the storm if I go outside today and the lighting is still good.
But my main grief about today is that my freezer might have bought the farm, but hopefully its just a buildup of ice that kept it from closing properly and not something more serious. Its only ~18 months old so it shouldn’t break just yet, now to just find the warranty and all the papers from when I bought it. I probably put them somewhere safe, but cant remember where of course but the cat is helping me look for the papers by being on and around me because he feels that I’m stressed out at the moment.
Don’t know whats with this week just read on facebook that another friends cat got run over tonight and probably wont make it. That’s just depressing as hell, had to play with Loki and give him some GBF (Good Boy Food) just because, and show him I love him. Update: They just found him in the snow, and he didn’t make it. My thoughts go out to all who have lost a beloved family member this week.
Ok now its the last NFL games before the Superbowl and no I’m not counting the Pro Bowl!
The picks for winners is Saint and Colts, those are my mind picks. Those teams will probably win as they are the better teams on paper and have home field advantage. My heart picks are Vikings and Jets as I like to see them in the Superbowl as they have a lot more storyline possibilities. You have the young rookie QB vs. the old timer who is old enough to be his dad. The last hurrah for Favre going out and being the oldest QB to win a Superbowl and all that. As the Vikings put a beating on the Cowboys It would be nice to have lost to a team that would eventually play in the Superbowl, but that’s just me. Jets got my attention early in the season with some good and exiting games, and having a very confident coach, some would say overconfident, haven’t deminised the feat of making it into the playoffs. Another thing is the Colts resting their players and all the talk about throwing games just because they didn’t want the Steelers in the playoffs that ultimately lead to the Jets making it in. This would be poetic justice that the team that they let make the playoffs just because they didn’t want the Steelers, or so people have been saying, would ultimately beat them and make it to the Superbowl. If that would to happen there will be mayor represcusions in the Colts staff, throwing away a perfect season and then not making the Superbowl, being knocked out by the team they let into the playoffs would be monumental.
Saints and Colts although they are rivals they haven’t connected with me at a level that would make me care either way who would win a Superbowl.
So Saints vs. Colts in the Superbowl, the boring and safe choice. I’m going to be cheering for the Vikings and Jets, as that’s where my heart lies at the moment as the Cowboys have been eliminated from the playoffs.
Its not been a good week to be a cat this week, two off my friends had cats die this week. Although the cats where both over 12 years they had a good life, but losing a pet is never easy. I have had to put down my fair share of cats over the years and it never gets any easier, but at least they didn’t have to suffer and be neglected as many animals.
But on to something less depressing then, I recently found out about a epically bad film company called The Asylum which specializes in producing ripoffs of blockbuster movies, really bad movies at that. Some examples of this is are Snakes on a Train, The Da Vincie Treasure and the movie I have heard so much about Transmorphers.
The movie that caught my attention was Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus I always had a weak point for shark movies ever since watching Jaws as a kid.
There are some awfully epic scenes in this movie, particularly the one when the shark takes down a airliner, all the shark scenes are all ripoffs from Jaws, but designed to top them. The airline scene tops the Helicopter scene from Jaws II, taking out a full sized military frigate made me think off we need a bigger boat from the original Jaws.
They also said that Sharkzilla swam at a speed of 500 knots, and they are practically indestructible and they hate each other shark vs octopus. All common sense and laws of physics are thrown out the window in this movie, or so I though as this blogger explained the physics behind the shark killing the airplane.
Where to start…will probably get a kitten sometime during the holidays, if all goes as planned 
a fluffy ginger one 
Last Friday I went out too watch some of my mates perform at a local rock club, will publish some pictures from that night as well as some other pictures I have found. Had a slight breakdown with my cellphone, I updated the interface and haven’t bothered to set it up on the computer until this morning (Due too my WoW realm being down for maintenance).
I have been cheating with my workout schedule the last couple of weeks…but I have been losing some weight nonetheless. But my measurements have not been good too me. Lets just hope I will still fit into my suit for New years dinner 
I will give all you Horror Movie Freaks out there a tip, I know I have mentioned some of the movies before but…I know they have gotten bad reviews but don’t let that discourage you.
Speaking of horror stuff, watch the christmas special for Supernatural, its brilliant. Supernatural is my new favorite show currently running.
A day without sun shine is like, you know, night.
