I hate it when it is this hot. The sweat is pouring as if I was in the shower. My glasses get impossible to look through, my clothes get soaked and shortly: This heat stinks. At least when I have to spend an hour or so on a train that obviously has noe air condition. These kind of conditions really drains me for positive energy. I dread the bicycle ride home today. But then I will at least have the wind to cool me off.

Aside from that i feel my life is quite great these days. I have a job I just love more and more, I have a wonderful wife, two lovely girls (even though one of them is at her fathers for the summer), outlooks of a good and steady income and a lot of energy I didn’t have before. That is quite strange, really. I was more tired in the evenings earlier when I was at home all day than I am at the evenings when i get home from work nowadays. I guess “they” are right; you get energy when you spend energy. Together with the job, the heat and the bicycling to the train station i hope to lose a LOT of weight this summer. I have started eating more healthy too, so I really hope to lose weight this summer.

I got a bit mad at NSB (the norwegian railroad company) today too. July is the month of summer vacation in Norway and therefore they decide that the train most commuters take home from work is canceled in july. Just lovely. That means that I either have to leave work early or take a later train. Leaving early is out of the question and taking a train later makes it impossible to reach the bus home, so I have to walk for 15 minutes and wait another 15 minutes for a bus to take home. This means that I get home an hour or more later than usual. But I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. The NSB guys do just what they want anyways. This is not really a big problem for me since I ride my bike to and from the station, but if this heat keeps I will probably get heat stroke or something if I continue cycling.

Jeg hater at det er så varmt som nå. Svetten siler som om jeg skulle vært i dusjen og brillene blir umulige å se gjennom når de blir våte av svette, tøyet blir gjennomvått og kort sagt: varmen stinker. I hvertfall så lenge jeg må tilbringe en drøy time på toget som tydeligvis ikke har noen form for air condition. Slike forhold som dette er virkelig en prøvelse for det gode humøret mitt for tiden. Jeg gruer meg til sykkelturen hjem i dag. Men da har jeg i det minste vinden til å kjøle meg ned.

Jeg ble litt sur på NSB i dag også. Juli er fellesferie-måned og derfor har de bestemt seg for å innstille det toget de aller fleste pendlerne tar hjem i juli måned. Kjempeflott, NSB! Det betyr at jeg enten må dra tidligere fra jobb for å rekke et tidligere tog eller bli lenger på jobb og ta et senere tog. Det er uaktuelt å gå tidligere og tar jeg et tog senere, så rekker jeg ikke bussen fra stasjonen og må gå 15 minutter og deretter vente minst 15 minutter på en buss som går hjem til meg. Det betyr at jeg kommer hjem minst en time senere enn vanlig. Men jeg burde vel ikke være overrasket. Idiotene i NSB gjør som de vil likevel uten hensyn til sine kunder. Dette er egentlig ikke et stort problem for meg siden jeg sykler for tiden, men fortsetter denne ekstreme varmen så blir jeg nødt til å ta bussen, eller så kommer jeg til å få heteslag eller noe.
