nuzzaci - an online journal

When I bought my current glasses about 2 years ago (or so) I had a very simple brief - big black square plastic glasses. Sounds easy. I wasn’t exactly looking for a pair of glasses made out of wood or a pair of glasses made out of 4 layers of old LP records. But the fashion at that time - tiny glasses with invisible frames - turned my big black square plastic glasses into a hard nut to crack. Eventually I gave up the “normal” section and headed over to the sunglasses where I found my Celebrity1 by Dior.

That’s me on the left, on the right is a photo found on Google of the Celebrity1 shades.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with them - it’s just that I’m getting a bit bored with them, and that I’m a bit worried they might break any day soon (due to old age). So instead of waiting til the day they get a heart-attack - fall of my nose and die, and put me in a situation when I desperately need to find a new pair; I’ve done some research. And I have found:

The Little Dog by WESC and, also by WESC:

The Mongolian Gazelle

The Little Dog looks quit similar to my current glasses, while The Mongolian Gazelle have a rounder shape. I like them both.

I haven’t found them anywhere in London yet, so I haven’t been able to try them on and decide which one (if any). The photos above is all I have at the moment…

But my good friend, Henrik Engdahl a.k.a Ginga Ninja, found them in Stockholm and said they look nice. So I bought them both, and they are in a few hours on the way over to London with Simon Kallgard.

So in a few days or so I might just have a new pair, or even two new pair of glasses… or… I guess… either way, tomorrow I will at least have two new pair of sunglasses.

As I said last week - I been to Skelleftea. Im now sitting in my sofa watching a recording of the Canadian grand prix, waiting for my parents to call from the airport saying; we are here now. Ferrari and Michael Schumacher are currently quickest… but as we all know - he didn’t win this past weekend.

Midsummer was good. It’s just so nice going back and meet all my lovely old friends. They all are truly an amazing bounce of people.

We (Willow, Mr Tall, Henrik and I), rented a car in Stockholm and drove up during Thursday night. I love driving. Especially during the night. And especially Swedish summer nights. It was a pure pleasure.

First thing on Friday morning was a lunch involving fish. I had fish. I just can’t eat it. I did my best. Thanks to the lovely company it went down alright. Then we were of to give my sister a warm hug before finally going to where we the last 4 years have celebrated the midsummer weekend - Olov Nilzens cabin in Boviken. HUGE amount of love and cred to Olov and Carina for putting up with everyone every year.
One of the highlights was definitely when Anders Norberg sang ‘far jag kan inte fÃ¥ upp min kokosnöt’ at the end of a long karaoke session.

On Sunday, we (Willow, Mr Tall, Henrik and I), drove to Burea to play Football Golf with my half brother other brother - Marcus Vaneryd, at Myggvalla (translates to Mosquito Valley).
Football Golf was very very fun. I definitely can suggest that to anyone in any age and any sex.
It is/was a lot more fun then Frisbee Golf, which we played on Monday evening before once again hitting the road to drive down to Stockholm again.

In Stockholm I had a tight schedule. During the day I had plans to visiting Vinh Kha, Simon Kallgard, Isak Wikstrom, Staffan Lamm, Karl Thyselius, Karl Ringman and my brother - Jonaz Vaneryd… turned out to be a bit to tight of a schedule (woke up way to late after the long drive down), so I never manage to get to Karl Thyselius and Karl Ringman =(.

Overall it was a very nice weekend.
And I’m looking forward to next year.
