I think the standard greeting here should just be Good _____, lol, what with all the different time zones and such, lol.

I was saying to Ewen once that I think that's the reason for the Bar's success...it's driven at all times of day by folks all around the world (Europe, Australia, North America at least).

**Slams bar doors open**

Okay, let's cut the crap! I think it's time to ROCK!

**Jukebox starts playing the intro to "Dancing Queen"**




Sorry, I just always wanted to enter the bar like that...

How is everyone today?

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Hi Dorthe!

Thank god that backroom is soundproof... (Dave's feeling a bit under the weather today).


I'm doing great - work is so not stressing me out today, tomorrow's Friday and it's a holiday weekend, and my friend and her family will be up this weekend and I get to see them for the first time in a couple of years.

How are things in your neck of the woods?

 

[pax]

Three-day weekend!

It's raining - again!

I'm starting to get used to that though - When I go home I'll be all when it's not raining for several days in a row!

... and LB is busy and away, so I probably wont talk to him until monday...

Other than that I'm just as as always - looking forward to monday when I start to fill percriptions! I'm going to confuse all the customers at the pharmacy, 'cause they'll all be thinking I speak Norwegian, which I most certainly do not!

Okay, Merc, straighten me out on this...

--Where are you from?
--Where are you right now?
--Why are you there?

It's driving me nuts--I know generally where you are, but I have a bad (stupid American!) tendency to confuse several countries in your part of the world.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Oh, hell. I just passed 26000 without even realizing it. Laura would be so proud right now. *sniffles*

 

[pax]

"Bass Trap" just came on the ZooRadio...too bad Ewen's not around.

I'm going home to eat lunch, maybe throw in a quick load of laundry, and start defrosting the chicken I meant to start defrosting this morning.

for Ewen should he swing by

Oh Pax!

-- I'm Danish, from Denmark - born and raised in Copenhagen (capital) and lived there all my life, until now...

-- ...when I'm living in Stavanger, Norway for 6 months (have to be here for 2 more months)! It's a middle sized city on the south-west coast (which is why it's always raining!) of Norway...

-- Very good question! I'm here because of my pharmacy internship (I'm studying for a M.Sc. in pharmacy - finished next summer after 5 years at Uni )!

I wanted to do my internship at a hospital pharmacy, and it's very difficult to get those kind of internships in Copenhagen. So if I wated to stay in Denmark, I would have to move to the opposite end of the country - and I didn't want to do that! (I knew I wouldn't be able to live there for 6 months! )

So, I applied for a internship in Norway - I always wanted to try what it was like to live up here! I this country...


...and I'm obsessed with (telemark-)skiing, which was a very good reason to move up here - lots of snow and mountains! We dont have that in Denmark...
