Went to the Autobahn Reunion Party - celebrating a now defunct bar I used to frequent (and where I celebrated my 40th birthday). Working through Facebook, party organizer Anita managed to assemble an impressive array of the regulars of this excellent place. And the evening managed to completely recreate the mood of Autobahn's heyday. Certainly a haven for post-punk weirdos and misfits - but also bustling with a certain nervous creative energy. Felt right at home - again.

I probably won't be updating much from now until we leave for Berlin on June 3. Zupa has hired me to help with a project (still confidential) with a stress-inducingly tight deadline. Fingers crossed.

For Birgitte's birthday, we skipped the tea we'd planned at Stockhultsgaardens Tebod (that'll be next time, then). Instead we drove back to Denmark - the summerhouse in Tollerup - in time to prepare for the evening's birthday dinner (including barbecued Swedish moose hamburgers) with our summerhouse neighbours. A good time was had by all.

Drove around the vicinity of the cabin: To the ever-expanding Annas Kuriosa (while Birgitte went browsing, I sat outside in the sun, reading my Will Self novel) and the museum village of Huseby Bruk. Then back to the cabin for an evening drink by the lake.

To escape the brouhaha, hullabaloo and whatever around Birgitte's birthday, we escaped to Småland, Sweden. To our surprise, the owners' description of the cabin's "view of the lake" was not an exaggeration. Very nice. We then drove off to the original IKEA in the company's hometown of Älmhult for some köttbullar and a bit of browsing.
