"big in japan"

i know, i know, i know i haven´t posted anything for a loong time here.

i´m sorry for that.

why? you ask?

i just had to much to do this week.

on monday the system went all crazy (or should i say the people in Sweden) cause it seemed as everybody was intrested in renting a car.

we had all of a sudden huge queue´s (people where waiting for almost 20 minutes sometimes). we (me and my co-workers) where used to more like 5 mins. queue or 10 mins. at the top.

and of top of all alot of people where sick or just not there for other reasons.

and because i had alot of people to take care of and late meetings i never got myself to write a new entry here, i thought of it often, but i never found the time or the energy.

at wednesday we had a meeting, i ended at 16.00 and the meeting started at 18.00...*sigh* 2 hours of nothing to do...

today (friday) we had another meeting (again), and i ended 16.00 today aswell, and there where also 2 hours of nothing to do.

the meeting at wednesday was kinda boring, it was all figures of how much we had sold and looking at previous years.

but the meeting today was more intresting since we had a guy coming all the way from the USA to us.

he told us of what they offer to their customers in the USA and so on.

we had some "competitions" too...and i won a red fleece jacket with my company logo on it (i rarely win so yay for me!)

then we went out to eat at Hard Rock Cafe here in Gothenburg.

i haven´t been before, so i didn´t know what to expect.

it looked kinda cool, kinda how i would imagine a Hard Rock Cafe would look like.

we got the food we had ordered (i had ordered baby back spare ribs with french fries), it looked really good, and it tasted good too...in the beginning.

after like 6 or 7 ribs the taste was starting to feel kinda yucky. i discovered it wasn´t that good at all.

my co-workers who had ordered chicken with mashed potatoes was really disappointed too, apparently it didn´t taste anything.

we had ordered dessert too, i had ordered some kind of ice cream sundae.

i looked good...until i tasted the "ice cream" and the whipped "cream".

the "ice cream" didn´t taste very good at all, it tasted cheap, very very cheap

and so did the whipped "cream" too.

my friends had ordered brownie with "alot of ice cream"...

apparently "alot" to the people at Hard Rock Cafe have a strange defining on what "alot" means.

all the ice cream they got was a small litte ball(!!!), and a brownie that tasted like regular chocolate cookie that you can buy in a regular store.

adding to all this the food for expensive, how expensive it was i don´t know since my company payed for it all (luckily).

so all in all:

Hard Rock Café in Gothenburg, Sweden gets a rating:

1+ (maybe a weak 2) (where 1 is the worst and 5 is the best).

the food was really really bad, and the volume was too high. you come there too eat good and want to have a nice time.

not to eat crappy cheap made food and have to (almost) scream to be heard when you are talking to your friends.

....

i don´t remember if i wrote about my grapichs card problem, that i couldn´t get any colour when i connected my PC to my TV.

anyway, i couldn´t. i tried with new drivers and all, but nothing worked so i talked to the store and they saied that i needed a S-VHS to Composite converter since my tv can´t understand that signal

i bought a cable today and tried it...and voilá! i now have colour! yay!

finally i can see all the movies i have on my PC!

....

it almost 02.30 and i need to go to bed and sleep some.

well, thanx for tuning in!
