Routine?

I would say that I'm in my routine now.  My bedtime has stabilized, I'm waking up before my alarms(!) and getting stuff done.  As you may have gathered from the last post, I'm getting quite a bit of work for the lit class (I'm finishing a book that we're hearing a lecture about, in Norwegian thank goodness, on tirsdag, or Tuesday as some call it) but it's going more or less well.  However, I suppose I'll really find that out later.  In sliding into my routine, it's also been nice to find that me and Christian (from Christiansand) eat breakfast about the same time a lot of mornings.  I was able to chat with him for a while last night and even longer this morning.  I learned some handy new words and phrases which is always great (I can now 'gjøre narr (av)' or 'make fun (of)' people or things, and learned some new emphasizing adjectives, because you always need more of those).  He thought it was particularly curious that I was involved with rodeo for 9 years and we proceeded to talk about country music and southern and western accents, always a good time.  I also learned that there is a difference between 'sur melk' and 'milk som er sur'; that is 'sour milk' and 'milk that is sour'.  Apparently there is a beverage called 'sur milk' which, according to Christian, old men drink and it is 'forferdelig', terrible.  If 'melken er sur', then you just have sour milk.
