Well it was a beautiful day to go for a coffe at the really old castle with their terrace that looks out over the ocean. There we were, my aunt, my sister, her husband and all the children, the teen daughter, the teen son and also the youngest addition, Emil, who is about six years old. The terrace is one of the more "touristy" places in the coastal town of Varberg where my aunt lives and, even if the coffe is so bad it should be used for some form of cleaning purpose than drinking.

Sometimes when I have a conversation with myself I ask me: "Not only are you one of the most crazy people in the western hemisphere, you are also one of the most uniqely creative. What, pray tell, would one such as yourself consider being the key to happiness?".
I always answer this: "My simple dream is to work hard and live a long an prosperous life that would leve me filthy stinking rich because this is the key to true happiness."
– "Money and work is the key to happiness?" I respond, sceptically.

Let me count the ways...
Today, I'm happy to report, the universe took an refreshing new approach to the whole reward-and-punishment system and it also told me in no uncertain terms how hard work is connected to getting money.
Usually, I need to do a lot of hard work of a degrading, menial and boring nature who also is of questionable morality. Society as a whole and females in particular generally also frowns upon people of my chosen profession. Most of the time I get a reward of some kind but that reward is, as luck would have it, never ever ever ever on par with the disgusting nature of theese tasks.
Actually I have earlier surmised that all this is likely because I must have been a God awful person in an earlier life, or actually several lives... Probably even thousands of lives, and this time around, I'm really gonna get it. So I work with computers...
