Jag pratar inte Svenska

I am now in the Collaroy Castle with six people with the same surname as me.  My Swedish cousin is visiting with her Swedish husband and her three Swedish kids, and my uncle just arrived from the airport to the house he grew up in.  Seven of us sleeping in the house means not a lot of space, but it doesn't really bother me.

The kids don't bother me either.  Some kids do, but these ones don't.  My three year old nephew (or cousin once removed if you prefer) was having a great time singing the tune of the Imperial March in the scariest voice he could manage when we were putting the Family Guy version of The Empire Strikes Back on.    I'm not sure how I feel about having kids.  I am terrified about having the kind of kids that I see carrying on hysterically sometimes, but other kids I have no problems with.

Tomorrow is the Mardi Gras parade.  Anyone in Sydney is welcome to come down and watch the Convicts and I.  There is pretty much always an elevated level of horniness.  Last year someone stuck his hand down my shorts, so it's not all positive.

YW: Farmer's walk for the first time ever.  25kg in each hand.  6 flights of stairs upand down, 50 SDHP, 50 situps, 4 flights, 30 SDHP, 30 situps, 2 flights, 10 SDHP, 10 situps.  The farmer's walk is goooooood.

Lol! Well I guess you have to expect surprises at Mardi Gras.

Have fun!

If I wasn't in such a good mood, I would have punched the guy.

I think you would have liked it. Your friend Niko was there.

Normally crowds and overstimulation can get the better of me but I held up pretty well.

Any three year old who walks around singing any kind of Star Wars music is pretty much awesome in my books!

Looking forward to the Mardi Gras round up.

I'll write more tomorrow about Mardi Gras. It seemed shorter this year.

I was very impressed by their Star Wars expertise. They were watching it with Swedish subtitles.
