My apologies for highly infrequent updates of late. It’s all to do with my all-too busy schedule, alternatingly translating loads of Swedish articles into my native tongue (I appreciate that my surname gives cause for much confusion in that respect) and writing articles on women in science, IT and engineering – all due by weekend Friday noon. Needless to say it takes most of the nights and all of my daytime hours, rendering yours truly quite incapable of offering his usual insignificances. Luckily, however, that’s just what they are, which ought to make the absence endurable. And let’s face it; blogging isn’t very likely to make the workload go away (neither is tonight’s voluntary communal work in our daughter’s kindergarten, come to think of it).

Looking at my watch I realise I’ll just have to stop here. I have a Q&A waiting, so I’ll just find a pair of matches to pry my eyelids open, and get down to it, leaving you with a highly relevant tune (as the nights are currently just as crazy as my days) albeit not a favourite of mine. It could be yours, though, and I’m not in the habit of passing judgements. Please bang your head, too, if you’re so inclined. At your own discretion, of course:

    I just barely made the newspaper supplement deadline at noon yesterday, which I definitely wouldn’t if I hadn’t startet at four in the morning. Completely worn-out after hours of carrying heavy boxes and furniture over several storeys in daughter’s kindergarten the night before.

    Weekend schedule: More translations — and PDF layout proofreading. Man, I really do love weekends! On the other hand I count myself among the wicked, for whom there’s generally no rest.
