Story of a mediocre fan: chapter 3

It's Thursday in Stockholm, and I have some good news and some bad news for you, which I shall interleave in the following several bullet points:

• Good news: as the damned Norwegians promised, yesterday was cloudy and cooler than at the beginning of the week, peaking at around 24 degrees in the early evening.
• Bad news: the peak temperature yesterday coincided with Simon and I tucking into some really spicy curry and then starting an epic Guitar Hero session, so it felt like about a gazillion degrees in my apartment.
• Badder news: it's back to being sunny and hot now, and worse yet, when I look back at my screenshot of the Norwegians' forecast, I actually see that they predicted this, so now I have to apologise for calling them liars. Sorry, you damned smug Norwegians, sitting atop your pile of filthy oil-generated lucre!
• Good news: I wrote the 3000-4000 words required for chapter 3 of "Story of a mediocre fan".
• Bad news: I wrote nearly 5000 words in chapter 3, which is a bit longer than spec. Tim graciously told me that since he's verbose, he has no right to ask me not to be. I think he does actually have the right, since it's his blog, but I didn't want to argue with him on this point. ;)
• Good news: my friend, former coworker, and best Product person in the world Sajal is in town, and we're going out with our former boss Rafa to celebrate Sajal's new job!
• Bad news: the bus that I need to catch to be on time to meet the boys down on Södermalm is in less than 40 minutes, and I haven't gotten in the shower yet because I'm sitting here writing this!
• Badder news: my mean friend Ray (not to be confused with my mean friend Sen–maybe I need to get nicer friends!) will probably claim that this entry is "phoning it in", the jackass! I don't see him blogging daily, only complaining about the poor quality of my daily blog (which, to be honest, he kinda has a point about, but I'm following my friend Juan's advice and being brave enough to be awful until I'm not).
• Good news: I'm done phoning it in now, so you can stop reading this drivel and head on over to 7amkickoff to read my actual daily writing!
