Glad Påsk!

Easter weekend...everything is closed for a few days in advance and a few days following. Its just one more excuse for the Swedes not to work. I went someplace yesterday and I found that it was closed (as was everything else). Yesterday was Långfredag...hmm, ok. I am definately back in Scandinavia.

So today I was trying to come up with a funny hippy name for a kid...I was inspired by the 3000th time I saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers new video for the song "Dani California." The one rule was that it had to include the name "California" as a first or middle name. What happened, is that I accidently happened on a pretty cool one!!! The name is, now get this, Chrysanthemum California! First and middle name. We can see the hippy genesis of the name in its bearing the name of a flower.

I have decided that I will name my first daughter Chrysanthemum California (this should worry nobody since I will not have kid). It can be shortened to "Chrys" or "Cali." Basically, the only requirement I have in finding a wife is that she consent to my naming ideas...I have a first male name too, but we will save that for another post when nothing is going on in my life...so she has to give me full artistic freedom in naming the children. I also have to be allowed to start indoctrinating them at the first point they begin to demonstrate sentience. I have a pedagogical procedure laid out...and the substance...I refuse to edit this.
