Busy day….like hell…
I think I’ve had 30 different phone calls today. Some of them I didn’t even had time to pick up and haven’t returned…sick day.
I had lunch with Johan and Michael on PokerStars discussing Vegas, nice lunch and nice to say hi to the guys. Long time since I met them. Before this I quickly stopped by Casper’s father to pick up a paper. After the lunch I went to my poker agent to take some pictures so they have it for media in the future instead of borrowing from others.
Spring party on daycare today. Very nice. Sat there out in the grass listen to the kids performance and just relax in the sun. Very nice afternoon.
Mom came by just after we came home. I barely had time to talk to her because of all the phone calls. Then Noelia came, she lives here now for two months…nice to have someone looking after the apartment while I’m away and nice to be able to help her out.
Been sitting with my laptop since eight or something and with the cell phone continue to call. Finished the last phone call at eleven. Sick! I really hope tomorrow will be so much calmer.
Off to bed soon. So f***ing tired. Only a few hours of sleep and another long day tomorrow. Me, my father, his wife and Casper are going to Gröna Lund which is Sweden’s biggest amusement park. Will be nice!






Jack, Casper and Edgar

Lovely weekend
Friday was great. Saturday was spent with Cicci and taking like 600 pictures for the article I’m writing on her. Today we went out to sis to celebrate mom on mother’s day.
Only thing this weekend that sucked was the poker. Cold in the S&Gs. Even on them after playing a lot the last four days. I also played the WSOP qualifier today, also cold. Lost a big pot with KK. Ace on the flop of course. It was a rollercoaster the whole tournament when I busted out after 3,5 hours of play. Yuck!
Tomorrow will be calm. Nothing in the schedule. Tuesday is very busy though.
Today Cicci and me booked flights for the kids and us to Spain. Will go there late June for twelve days.
So one week left to Vegas, less than a week…

Junibacken
Have you heard of Astrid Lindgren? She is Sweden’s most famous author, she past away six years ago, which is sad because I think everyone in Sweden thinks of her when they look back at their childhood. Pippi Long stocking is probably the book you guys would have heard of. Except this one she wrote the most amazing stories about childhood, friendship, fairy tales and about the very sensitive subject death but in a nice way, a way that kids can understand.
Anyway. Today Peter asking me if I wanted to take Casper and go with him and Noah to Junibacken waked me up. Junibacken is a whole house built on and around her stories. The train is the most fantastic thing because you go around in her world with her telling all the stories. In ten minutes you got to be a kid again.
We had lunch outside in the sun. I think the summer is back again. At least I hope it is
After Junibacken we went back to their hotel. The kids played outside while we got a glass of wine (I got mineral water though) with Cicci who just finished work. On our way back I stopped by the “Three” store to buy a new cell. Mine is C-R-A-P and I really needed a new one. I bought a Blackberry. My friends keep telling me it’s da nuts so I felt for it.
At six me, Cicci and the kids went to a vernissage. The kids of course wasn’t very interested so me and Cicci (or actually I blame her) put the kids in this cinema “thing” where they showed a movie. When we came back they just say there all fascinated and calm. When the movie was done Noah came out telling us that some guy cut his heads off. Ha ha…great child movie.
When leaving Casper’s new friend we went over to my dad and Agneta to watch some Friday entertainment and just chill for a few hours. Very nice indeed, when leaving at ten both me and Casper was finished for today…I’m exhausted!
Tomorrow I’m going back to C&P to take pictures of Cicci for this article I’m writing for First Poker. Will be nice, specially with my new camera and lens. Can’t wait to test it!!!

Good girl
Today I’ve been a good girl. Took care of all the stuff I had to, went to the hair dresser and tonight me and mom went to my old apartment to clean it out before I return the key to my old landlord. After this we went home and I made us some salad. While cleaning Cas went to Kim&Fredrik. Went to get him at eight and got served another dinner. For desert Fredrik had baked a rhubarb pie which was awesome. I really miss to have a boyfriend who can cook and bake. Except the last ex all of them been great chefs.
My hair is INSANE! I actually like it even though I get a shock everytime I go to the mirror. The hair is just like my personality, wild and crazy. When I came to pick up Casper today he called me a clown

Salad with Halloumi


It’s curly…very curly…

A little bit better
Today was still bad but so much better than yesterday that was a nightmare from the beginning until the end.
My shoulder still hurt as hell but I have a meeting with my god on Thursday. I’m not kidding. He’s a true genius when it comes to fix my body.
Today all my shopping arrived with Fed Ex. Love it all. I got some stuff last week but turning those back. Apparently I forgot to write my name and address on the bag so I have to call them tomorrow and let them know it’s my stuff that arrives without a sender.
Tonight Kim&Fredrik came over to have dinner. Very nice the whole night. When they left I’ve been playing some online. Very, very cold grind but ended up just loosing a little anyway.
Off to bed. Tomorrow I’m going to my hairdresser to get my hair all curly. I really hope she will get it just like I want it to be.

Shitty day
Horrible day, or actually no, the horrible part started tonight. Poker was good, the short session I played before my shoulder said no. First my suspicious about something got confirmed. I’m not upset about it just that I think it’s so dirty that I probably won’t talk to one of my friends again…
Then my last three months got turned up side down (not the whole three months but something’s that happened in the past) when things were posted on the Internet. I really hate the forums sometimes.
Ah well. It’s soon time for Vegas that will be a great time I hope. Today I bought a new lens for my camera and a bad to have for my laptop and the camera equipment. Later this week I will also buy the new camera, a Canon 40D. Excited about it but and can’t wait for it to arrive
Tomorrow I have to stay at home waiting for my FedEx to arrive. Apparently they were here today but never heard the doorbell. I also wait for my stuff from Asos to arrive. Odd it hasn’t arrived yet. Normally they are quick. The stuff from Nelly.com will be returned. The dress was too expensive to be as transparent as it is. Shitty material. The bikini wasn’t a bikini; only the bottom and they don’t have the top anymore.
Off to bed after the last episode of Gossip Girl. Tomorrow must be so much better…

So close…
Two weeks to Vegas.
Played the 650 qualifier to WSOP tonight. Sooo close. Even though I didn’t have a hand through the whole night I stayed in until we were 91 left out of the 763 entrants. Then I found kings…of course they couldn’t hold up against 77. Ah well. I have my two packages to be proud of but a third would have been nice.
This weekend was spent at the casino. Played cashgames every day. Won A LOT yesterday. Today me and Noelia went there a few hours before heading off home to play the 650 qualifier on PS. I’ve had a lot of fun my last weekend without Casper. Next to weeks will be spent with my family and friends and probably with no poker at all. I really miss my little ghost. Can’t wait for him to come here tomorrow.
Have to call my massage therapeutic tomorrow. My back really hurts now…more than it usually does. I’m off to bed soon with some strong painkillers. Need to be able to sleep tonight. I also need the back to be fixed before the very long flight to Vegas in a few weeks.

Love is in the air…
This last days have been awkward. Something with my charisma that entices people around me. Not one, not two, a LOT. It’s nice but still. I’m not in that flirting mood at the moment. My sight is set on Vegas and it will be great. I will have a lot of fun with M and play a lot of poker. After 3,5 weeks I will move to another hotel and then the work part starts…
Vegas this year will be magnificent. I can feel it. I no longer have this guy in focus and I will just enjoy myself and something tells me this will be the best summer ever. I will miss Casper a lot but I will focus on work and play.
The poker the last few days have been cold. It started nice in the beginning of this week but yesterday and the day before have been cold but still very, very nice.
Back to my company here in the couch…

Girly night
First my father and his wife came over to have a coffee then I went to see Tove who had a surgery late last night. She was now moved from the corridor into the shower room (????). After an hour at the hospital I went into town, made some shopping and then I met Cicci and we took my car home to the suburb. Made some shopping, food and wine on our way.
A great dinner, Noelia joined us too. After some wine, two course dinner and a lot of poker talk me and N decided to go to play some at Casino Cosmopol when it was time for Cicci to go back to her hotel to get some rest before they head off to Madrid tomorrow to play a poker tournament.
Said and done. It was a great night there. I got a lot of laughs and a lot of great pots. Ended up winning six buy-ins. I staked Noelia and she won two. My rush continues
I just hope I will be in the same great shape in Vegas in a couple of weeks. My new poker agent will be there to make sure I get a lot of media attention if I do *s*.
Off to bed. Long day. It’s morning here in Sweden and “normal” people are on their way to work. Me and Noelia eat breakfast and consider to watch a movie, lol!

Rucola, figs, mozzarella, honey and crema di balsamico
