Hello, hello. It's late, there's no time to waste. Hurry hurry.

First of all let's close the poll from yesterday, shall we? Alritey then. Your votes on whether Denmark will qualify from their Euro '04 group.

Of course they will (2) 17%
Don't be silly, they don't have a chance (1) 8%
I hope they will because I want Plumey to be happy (4) 33%
I don't know (2) 17%
Forza Italia olé olé pizza gorgonzala senorita (0) 0%
Soccer is a sport for suckers (3) 25%

I would like to see whoever said that we don't have a chance in my office after the entry is done. We need to have a serious talk. But the winner is "I hope they will because I want Plumey to be happy ". Aw you guys. I hope you're right.

In other news:

Oops. Baby did a bad bad thing. I couldn't help it. It's only because I have been saving a whole lot of money that I decided to spend such a fair amount. I saw on telly that Futurama season 4 was out. So I had to buy that. When I have it I will have in my possession every single Futurama episode on DVD. That is so cool. And no I don't mean "that is so geeky" or "that is so nerdy" or "that is such a waste of money". I mean "that is so cool". And I stand by that.

And I've been wanting the special edition of the Holy Grail so I can laugh uncontrollable at "Help, help! I'm being repressed!" again. And then the Evil Dead films. This is all stuff that I knew I was going to buy sooner or later, so might as well get it at once and save shipping costs. And I am not breaking any commandments, really I'm not.

My mother spent money too. She bought a pinball game for the computer. It was a deal a la "3 for the price of 2". She got me Dungeon Keeper Gold and Populous The Beginning. Nice of her. I don't have the heart to tell her that they're ancient games and that the pinball game looks like a shareware game, I could have probably downloaded one that was better for free somewhere. But as long as she's happy.

Work was uneventful apart from one thing. I was rolling this dumpster along on the bike track. I needed to get it down to the big containers so I could empty it. On the bike track there was a big sign blocking the way. So I rolled the dumpster out on the road and passed the sign. Then I wanted to pull the dumpster back up on the bike track. But it was too heavy. I couldn't pull it up. And cars started going by so I couldn't step out on the road and push the dumpster up. I figured I'd wait till all the cars had passed. But the last one passing was a huge truck. One of those with 20 wheels. Circa. And what happened? Because of roadworks on the other side there just wasn't space enough. The huge truck rammed into the dumpster. Nothing too serious happened. You can see on the picture that the left side is sort of bent out of shape. And the lid got a big dent too. And the dumpster went flying in the air spewing garbage out everywhere. Geez. It also made a bloody great carcrashing sound. And there were bottles in the dumpsters so the sound of smashing glass was there too. But no one got hurt at least. The truck stopped and the driver came out and walked towards me. I was afraid that he would be pissed at me because the end of the dumpster had been hanging down on the road. You know, I was picturing some huge trucker type with massive forearms and beer belly. And he would scream at me "YOU SCRATCHED MY CAR YOU LITTLE PISSANT". But instead it was some young asian type who helped me clean up some of the garbage mess. Until I told him everything was okay and I'd take care of it. He had stopped his truck and blocked traffic. So I figured it would be better to get him to leave.

Oh the fun I have.

Today is December 1st. How lovely. The christmas month. In Denmark we have two nice traditions. I think the first one is common other places. That's the christmas calendar. You know, you count down the days to christmas. Every day you open up a little door or gate or something on the picture. And underneath there's a surprise. A picture or if it's a chocolate calendar there's a piece of chocolate. Everybody has those right? I think not everybody has christmas candles though. It's a nice tradition. The candle has 24 marks and you let it burn down one mark per day and count down till christmas like that.

Yes, I'm going somewhere with this. I decided to combine those two things. With the help of my lovely Skye I created a christmas calendar light. Now every day you can click on the corresponding number on the candle to get a surprise. Don't expect chocolate or anything amazing. Just fun and games. Now today is the 1st so you may click on the 1st number. See how it goes? Tomorrow is the 2nd so when I update tomorrow you can click on number 2. But don't click ahead on any numbers. That's like a naughty boy who eats all the chocolate in the calendar on day one. Or sneaks a peak to see what's behind lid number 24. Like reading the end of the book first. Only look at the numbers that correspond to the number of days gone by.

Are you bored yet? Let's have the christmas calendar candle then.

I couldn't have done that without Skye. But I hope you'll like my little game. Go check out the prize for December 1st. Let me know what you think. And NO COMPLAINTS about the lack of chocolate. I shouldn't have mentioned chocolate. I should have used goat cheese as an example instead.

Phew. I'm done. Well done. It's getting quite late, I must go to bed.

Safety first.
