So, we've finally moved into our new house in Gentofte (an up-scale suburb of Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark). We were finally done moving stuff around at 2 in the morning. Then I got a few hours of much needed sleep, whereafter I had to get up to return the van we rented to move all our stuff in. Then off to work. Work was as it usually is. Chalenging, demanding, rewarding. Good.

So, now I'm in my new bed in my new room in our new house, working on my boss' laptop — I need to get it setup, so she can use it — she's not all that computer-savvy. So, I reinstalled Windows on this nice laptop yesterday. Typed in the product key from the sticker on the belly of the computer. Tried to “activate” it over the net. Then it told me that my key was invalid, and that I should call them instead. I tried to, but their phone system was apparently broken. All I got was this strange beep-sound, not at all like those you hear when you call some one or the line is busy. So I gave up for the day.

This is, of course, not Mac OS X, but instead gentoo linux. The likeness with OS X and more specifically the software thereon that goes by the name Exposé is not completely accidental.

Since linux apparently also has cool eye candy, it is getting rather embarrassing to our friends from Redmond that they've not yet managed to get their version of eye candy released yet. Especially considering that their new stuff doesn't show much promise. There's a comparison of the three big eye-candy-laden desktops here.

…when it goes? And why?

That is some of the questions I sometimes (pointlessly) ask myself. I just noticed that it's been more than a month since I last posted here. Here's a summary of what's happened since I last posted here:

From the 19^th to the 23^rd, I was in Holland with my pastor, his wife and two other boys of my own age. We drove down there the 19^th. It was really hot when we left Denmark, and when we came to Holland, it was about 37°C – I actually managed to get sunburns while driving the car.
When we finally arrived, we were lodged at my pastor's wife's sister's place, in De Baarsjes, a district in Amsterdam.
