I am currently sitting in the beautiful and relatively quiet Halifax airport waiting for my plane. I am situated right in front of the gate, I have free wireless internet access, a bounty bar, a coke zero and some episodes of a tv series on my computer as well as an electrical plug so I don’t run out of battery. Who needs fancy airport lounges anyways :)

(I reserve the right to get grumpy in 10 hours where I am supposed to be waiting three hours in Hearthrow for a connecting flight to Copenhagen, and then in 16 hours where I am supposed to wait for a connecting flight to Aarhus, and then in 18 hours where I am in the airport bus to Aarhus and then in 18½ hours where I am trying to find a bus or cab to take me to the dorms.)

Today was my last day at AT&T Research. Tomorrow I am flying to Halifax in Canada for a conference, I am currently scrambling to finish the slides for my presentation on Wednesday. I am looking forward to attending WADS and exploring what I can of Halifax during my four short days there. I fly back to Denmark immediately after the conference ends and will be back in Aarhus saturday – just in time for the MADALGO summer school which I will be attending (at least partially, I will need to go to Copenhagen that week as well).
I am procrastinating, I really need to finish these slides – it would also be nice to actually run through the talk at least once as well. I have to get up really early tomorrow, getting to La Guardia airport from New Jersey is not the easiest thing in the world.

Mette complained that I am bad at updating this blog, and I tend to agree :|. To make her, and all the rest of my countless readers, happy I am now doing yet another post while I am waiting for the guy across for me to finish what he is doing so we can go to lunch. Yes, Mike, I am waiting for YOU!

Anyways, we went to see Les Miserables on Saturday. The production was awesome and I enjoyed it very much, this also increases my total Broadway musical count to 3 over the last two months, not too shabby :). Other than that I haven’t done much interesting in the last week, we have gone to see quite a few movies at a local cinema. We have seen Simpsons, Bourne Ultimatum and the new Die Hard movie. The Bourne movie were a bit disappointing, but I would recommend the other two strongly. And when you go see the simpsons movie, be sure to stay through the credits :)

I read Mikkels rant and that motivated me to actually write something new on this blog thingie. The big news this week is that I am have a car. Yup, I have batman-black ’99 Toyota Corolla with a milage of 66k miles, not too bad :). The previous owner left his Garmin GPS navigation device for me to keep, so I have a toy to go with the car as well.

Having a car completely changes the way I live around here, we can now go to see a movie whenever we want to. We can easily get groceries when we need them, and we do not have to walk 45 minutes to get to the laundry place, yay.

Tonight I am going to a party in New Brunswick, we will probably spend the night in one of the dorms at Rutgers University, which is more or less right next door to the place we are going to. We will then probably go to New York Cite with some other interns on saturday and maybe get tickets to a Broadway show, we’ll see.

Now, Mikkel – it is your turn to blog again! (Or have Martin do it, it is about time he contributed :) )
