The SINISTER spinster is back

ok, enough with sloppy love searches and relationship confusion: time to get back to the sinistrous side of me.

been spending the week in Stockholm again, and somehow, irritations emerge ;-). but seriously, what can you say about a town that is UNHEALTHILY self-loving?? it's sometimes like Stockholm is constantly masturbating or having some sort of ego-centric self-mirroring. or what can you say about at town that has the following anal expressions for ego:

# Step1 - Arlanda: GIGANTIC pictures of half known or non-known "stockholmare" welcoming you to "their hometown". how cute.
# Step 2 - Arlanda Express (train to town): 1) Magazine with front page "Why I love Stockholm": tellings of another half-celebrity, 2) the voice telling us that the train is getting into the station from another bunch of Stockholm-lovers welcoming to town..
# Step 3 - Shopping in Central town: At least 3 clothes brands have some sort of reference to Stockholm in names as ... of Stockholm, or in the modern way: STHLM
# Step 4 - Restaurant visits: Same system as the clothes brand

... and to be honest, having now spent 4 days in this grey, cold, rainy and very empty and silent town, I must say that this LOOOOVE for the capital probably takes place only for tops 2 months per year, i.e. the summer, and maybe also some weeks in March when it's still snow, but not too desperately dark as the rest of the winter.

and the worst thing is that Stockholm claims to be "The Capital of Scandinavia": Are the neighbours agreed on this???

bah
