March 5, 2002

Today I finally had enough, and walked out of a lecture because the room was too cold. People over here find it immensely funny that I—who am from Norway, a country they quite incorrectly link to Fimbul winter—absolutely cannot stand cold weather. It apparently does not sink in that you hardly choose the country you are born in. Additionally, it does not occur to people in this country that windows and doors can be closed, thereby keeping the heat on the inside where it belongs.

Dave found a treasure today while roaming the cupboards, namely eight half-litter cans of lager! What is especially good about it is that Dave rarely drink lager (he prefers bitter) which means more for me :)
