Everyday wanderings

In contrast to my life as a visiting professor as chronicled on Facebook, much of everyday life involves more ordinary pursuits.  Take today, for instance, which was a quiet one for me.

I spent the morning in the apartment doing various adminsitrivia and writing tasks.

















Then went  out in the warner air that precipitated fog from the subliming snow and took the number 18 bus to the Varland stop on "The Avaneyn" (Avenue).  Here the snow has vanished completely


This is the main shopping street so I accomplished my errands: Booze from the government-run liquor shop
More money from the bank
 a few staples from the Coop (next door to MacDonalds - never been into this one)

 and top up my bus and tram card at the Seven Eleven.

By then it was time to head for the school of design and crafts (HDK or "Hor d co") to been Ulla, Marcius and Mina  for - you've guessed it - a lunch meeting.


Afterwards, I popped into the library to check in the current location of the stacks,

before Ulla and I headed for her office (and site of yesterday's successful glogg, egg nog and safranpancakes party) for an afternoon of writing followed by a quiet supper and evening in the apartment..

Oops, I forgot to do my exercises ....AGAIN!
