Tjena!

Some things I am looking forward to:

1) Seeing my family
2) Working out
3) Getting my paperwork all handled to come back
4) Finishing my dissertation
5) Movie club with my little sister and buying new clothes with her...she is a hipster doofus so she can acquaint me with what the kids are wearing these days.
6) Working out with my brother if he has a membership...I am going to make you hurt! (and me too I think)
7) Going to College Station and using the library, having coffee at one of my favorite coffee shops in the world (and I have now had coffee in a lot of countries!), and eating at some places I like...maybe even an evening round of disc golf to wind down
8) Fresh salads...not having to hunt down food in Scandinavian grocery stores...I feel like a savage stalking his quarry in the darkened regions of a mystical wood
9) Hurricanes...while the rest of the country gets whipped into a frenzy by propaganda, I mean the news, I will paddle out and get a view from the angry sea
10) Seinfeld 6x a day with my dad
11) Eating lunch with my mom and half-listening to her never-ending pleas to turn me into a white collar zombie ;)
12) Having a phone and phone card again and maybe being able to talk to friends that I miss...including long lost surf buddies and the latest installment to the Norwegian Government outpost in Hungary!!
