Allergies, football and work

Today I'll be working from home, on the quiz site where we made the design last week and the week before. Now I'll start programming some functions, like simple login and registration, accompanied by more advanced pages which need higher security, such as credit card check etc.

For once, I'll be working from home tomorrow as well, since S has a meeting until 11.30 it's not really worth the travel to only work about 3 hours...

As you may or may not know, the amount of pollen is record high this year. However, according to the experts, it will be a short season. I really hope they're right, because it's not always a lot of fun not being able to breathe. Around every fifth swedish adult has allergies against birch pollens, resulting in a lot of sneasing, itchy eyes and noses, and of course the constant tiredness. According to the news the levels are very high in Denmark, but they're still about five times as high in some parts of Sweden - which I find a bit odd for neighbouring conuntries.

Aristotle was famous for knowing everything. He taught that the brain exists merely to cool the blood and is not involved in the process of thinking. This is true only of certain persons.

So, tonight there's finally the biggest match of the year. The number one derby of Sweden. The so called football club of Malmö will be welcoming the heroes of Helsingborg. There's a good chance of the good triumphing against evil, the red-blues crushing the baby blue, and Malmö fans walking home in shame afterwards :) The reds of Bayern won the German league, the reds of Arsenal clinched the Champions League spot in the last match of the season and the last match ever on Highbury, and the heroes of Barca are completely superior to most others. This can of course only mean one thing: HIF victory tonight!

Realism...has no more to do with reality than anything else.
