Tell me about it...
Here in Norway there's a rush of holidays now in the spring and then there's nothing before it's christmas again.
Maybe we should save one or two and use them in November instead. Or even better, make new holidays in November.
*Starts daydreaming about st.Bumblebee's day, yeah!*
IIEM, refill please....

Hay it's a crazy day today. Apart from the lack of revision that I've done this morning I've allready booked a flight to Pisa with a load of Christian friends spir of the moment stile (roughing it and all), and now the printers are crashing so I can't print out my work.
I need a coffee. Mocha please IIEM.

Hi, everybody!
Busy-busy day 
The weather forecast tells that it'll snow tomorrow or even tonight. It can't be worse.
See you tomorrow. 
*and gone she is*

Hi all!
I trust all the Norwegians (that's you, Bumble
) survived 17th of May nicely? Except for all the cake, that is...
And everyone else? Fine, I hope?
IIEM, coffee please!
Speaking of short weeks, I've got 2 days left of this week (half a day on Wednesday, and I've got Friday off), then come Monday, I'm off to England for three days for a course on "determination of particle size by laser diffraction"(!)
Life is good! (Except that I'm broke after spending 3500,- NKR on drinking 16th and 17th...)

I want to go to England too! 
I'm soo jealous!
Do you think I could convince my employer that it is essential for my development as an accountant, that I go to London for an afternoon class with my qigong guru, and a three day shopping spree?

Hi everyone!

Dunno... Without having met your boss, still I must say I seriously doubt it...
Moonday
Bumblebee Posted May 21, 2001
Yeah, guess you're right...
*keeps an eye on IIEM, whitch has emitted strange sounds the last few minutes*

*the London special appears...a liquid of undefinable colour in a glas, decorated with such a little umbrella, you usually get with your ice-cream* 
...*sip* hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. That´s really delicious, anybody want a try?

*takes a sip*
I know what that is! It tastes almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea!

Feffi (Keeper of playground sunbaths on even days) Posted May 21, 2001
oh dear, are you alright IIEM? I hope I didn´t order something I shouldn´t have
But this drink is really great IIEM, if that cheers you up a bit.

Nevermind IIEM, it has gone far too long without a filter-change. Makes it uppity....
IIEM, come here and let me check those filters!
*Engaging it's tiny wheels IIEM starts whizzing around the room, just out of B.'s reach, making irritating bubbly noises..*
Come here!

*tries blocking the way, so that the IIEM, has to go to Bumble*

Bumblebee Posted May 21, 2001
*IIEM weirs to the left, deftly knocking over three chairs on it's way, positively giggling with mirth now.*
Lock the door!!

*dives over three tables, two sofas and five chairs, double sumersaults across the last stretch of floor, reaches the door and locks it just in time*
Moonday
Bumblebee Posted May 21, 2001
I got it! Phew!
Come here you, impossible machine you!
*Wheeling the giggling IIEM out to the back room to change the filters*
It won't take a minute!
