When It Rains It Snows

Last weekend I took it upon myself to travel "all the way" to Akureyri. It turned out to be a good thing. I staid for two night at a friends place (thanks Tóta & Palli) in Akureyri and on saturday night we had a very nice dinner (lobster as a starter and rudolf the reindeer as the main course). As the lobster was brought to the table I decided to have a piece of toast on the side; but then disaster struck! I broke a tooth! (on a piece of toast...think about that!) I excused myself from the table to assess the damage. The tooth had split almost in the middle but since I was not in any pain at that moment I decided not to say anything to my hosts so as not to spoil the dinner (which was, by the way, the best meal I have had in a long time). Now you are probably wondering what was the good thing about all this. Well, as I was in Akureyri (as opposed to Mývatnssveit) it was easier to get to a dentist which I did early monday morning. After three hours in the chair and som kind of a bloddy miracle the dentist managed removed the piece that had broke of and somehow made another piece in its' place, and she did this relatively without pain. RESPECT I say, respect! I took a couple of days of work which I survived mostly on mouthwash and painkillers but now I´m back to Mywater and it´s buisiness as usual.

Friday night was also "interesting". I got a call from two Erna & Silvia, who work at the hotel, and they asked if I wanted to join them at Kaffi Akureyri. As I am not the type to refuse and offer from two beautiful spanish girls (now I will surely get a comment;) I got a lift to town and joined them. Half an hour later we went to Sjallinn to dance. After little over an hour on the dance floor I had a very sobering experience. I realized that I was probably 20 years older than EVERYBODY in there. I getting flash backs from my highschool years! I would have had to drink alot to get drunk again so I opted for the less expensive option and left.

Well enough for you to chew on for now (no pun intended).
hasta la dentista

p.s. When it snows in August there is something seriously wrong!
