The (late) Finnish band Ultra Bra (“bra” as in good<\/i> in Swedish) sings in their song “Ilmiöitä” (quoting from memory, I’ll check it if I remember):<\/p>\n

\nI tend to go to the bus stop around the same time every morning (around 8:10) and there’s the same bus driver every time and he always starts his shift on the bus I’m getting on. So, last week I think, he started saying good morning. This morning he also said something else but I couldn’t make out what it was and didn’t start huh?-ing.<\/p>\n

The same band sings in the same song “if a girl doesn’t drink (alcohol), she’s probably pregnant”. Uh-oh… \":mrgreen:\" Maybe truth isn’t in songs after all.<\/p>\n

Sometimes people don’t need long “acquiantance(ship)” (whoa, I spelled it correctly the 1st time round), though. Yesterday on the way *from* work at the *tram* stop a woman told me about just coming from the hair dresser’s and taking the tram so that her hair wouldn’t get messy \":laugh:\" She had been at the hd<\/abbr>‘s just a week ago but a rain had ruined her hair that time (with all the sprays and things so it was all flat and funny) and she thought she’d have to wait for at least some time before going back. Dang<\/abbr>, I haven’t been at the hair dresser’s for a year!!<\/p>\n

Last night I woke up at 3:20 am because the rain was so loud. And the morning before that I woke up around 5 am for no reason. Apparently I’m getting enough sleep. But why am I so tired? \":???:\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
