So I decided that I wanted to go to Amsterdam instead of going home to the US. There are many reasons, the most important one being that Amsterdam is closer than Boston, and my ticket was only SEK 1,500 (about $200), whereas the cheapest flight home was $600. And for the first time, I am using my Marriott points. And that is a good thing too, because I have 400,000 of them left to spend (even after a weekend at the hotel in August).

So I need to go and pack now. I have to be in Oslo tomorrow morning, and my flight leaves at 07.30am, so I need to be up and ready to go at 06.00, and I really don’t feel like not making these meetings again (although last week I felt sick and terrible, so it wasn’t my fault).

Anyway, off to the shower, then to pack, and then some good quality sleep. Have a good night everyone! 🙂

My questions from swedishchef79

1. What is your biggest weakness?
My biggest weakness is that I am impatient when I feel that progress is not being made at a rate appropriate to the task assigned.

2. Describe your favorite sound.
My favourite sound is the sound of a heart beating.

3. If money were no object, describe the perfect date, start to finish.
I would keep it simple. Just dinner at a really nice restaurant and movie, followed by coffee. Now, dinner would be in Paris, the movie would be in Holywood, and the coffee would be Italy, followed by some yatching off of a carribean coast, but it would be simple 🙂

4. You are down to your last $20 in life, with no way to get any more. How will you spend it?
Well, this is a difficult question, because I am making the assumption that despite this $20, I will be able to eat, have clothes, and somewhere to sleep. So assuming all of that is true, I would spend me last $20 probably buying paint and cheap canvas, so that I could create something that would last for ever.

5. Leather or upholstry (for a vehicle) — which is better?
Leather is better for a vehicle, as long as those automatic seat warmers are installed!

I was so productive today. I even impressed myself. Time to hit the sack. But first a little techno to get in the right frame of mind to get some sleep!
