An earthquake far far away...

So I hear that southern Sweden had an earthquake this morning - 4.7 on the richter scale. If that isn't proof enough that the gods are angry at the damn socialist tendencies of that country, I don't know what is. More will follow, trust me on that! Soon they will be begging on their knees for forgiveness.

Of course I am kidding. But they did have an earthquake. Which means that since I came to Japan, the most seismologically active country in the world, my family in Sweden have have experienced as many eartquakes as I have. And their's was stronger. How is that for a twist of fate?

I finally got my package today!! Many thanks to my parents for sending it! I am now sitting here eating the most Swedish candy I have tasted in months, and I love it! Some things Swedish I will never be able to get over, it seems. The candy is one of them. Kebab pizza is another. And gingerbread cookies, undoubtedly, is the third.
