This is sure not what this area looked like when I played there as a kid!

Still a bit naked.

This is not a complete issue of Dansk Bridge! :@

I didn't know such a thing actually existed.

An orgie of gray.

Yeah

I've got the humor of a 12 year old.

Changing the Language of Blogger's Spell Checker

I usually write my posts on my Mac (hence the title of the blog) with the aid of the system wide spell checker build into OS X. However, right now I don't have access to my own computer so -- as a concerned speller -- I figured I would just use the spell checker that Blogger offers.

That would have been great. Except the language of the spell checker was Danish. I looked for a place to change this, but no luck. Considering everything in my account is displayed in English, I found this behaviour rather strange. I did a few Google searches but nothing useful turned up.

Finally I tried changing the browser's accept language. That did the trick. Quite a hassle just to get a spell checker in English.

As an Apple fan girl I should of course have noticed the easy solution quite a bit earlier: Just install Safari and use the spell checker as I always do ...

Mature

Nothing says "23 years old" like this hat!

It's going to be so clean!

Ready for football

Wee

My Roomba has arrived! :D

The nephew

Man of the match

Back at the stadium

Back in Denmark

And back at the office. I've been to China the last 3 weeks.

Balls

Apparently, when you get older the fun balls only have 2 colors.

Being Emotional

My latest post prompted more than one guy to ask me if I was talking about him. First off, if you actually take time to write me and ask, odds are I'm not talking about you. Second, the post was more emotional* than the posts I usually write.

I like to think my posts through and write them in a calm and rational fashion. While I did think a lot about my last post, it was not all that calm and rational. I considered if I should post it at all. But I decided that it's my blog and, as much as I try, I can't be calm, rational, or even just reasonable all the time.

I'm not really fond of the emotional side of myself. If I could, I would be reasonable and rational all the time. Or at the very least reasonable and rational about being unreasonable and irrational. But that's just not the case.

When I wrote the last post, I was angry, and writing it only made me more angry. I was in no mood to make sure I was being fair and reasonable. But instead of hiding that side of me, I chose to post and expose it. Because that's also part of who I am**.


*Emotional meaning "controlled by emotions" rather than "about emotions"
**This is already way too emotional for my taste!

Tiger and the nephew

Victory

Small stadium

Rules

Mmm ... Bacon!

Ready for the match

I'm back!

I finally get to see AGF play again. :D

Bloody cool!
