Tidigare ikväll var jag på Nordiska Museet för föredraget 'Svartkonst mellan fakta och fiktion' där författaren Per Faxneld samtalade om sin bok 'Tre varv motsols' med två kuratorer från museet. Det var oerhört intressant. Det är det alltid när gränsen mellan verklighet och det trolska suddas ut.

There are a few European languages in which the word for 'world' comes from words and roots to do with light – the world being the place lit by the sun. Lithuanian pasaulis 'world' is especially etymologically nice, as literally the under-sun (pa-saulė).

We don't say "hygge" in Swedish. That's Danish. In Swedish, we say "mys" or, more commonly, that something is "mysig(t)".

The air is crisp, with an edge to it. And the colours of the few clouds in an otherwise clear sky are absolutely out of this world tonight, all different shades of purple against a pale, cold background of blue and fading orange. Autumn really is a season of beauty.

I made flat breads for the first time. They look a bit shit, but they're absolutely delicious (topped with oil, chilli and garlic). I need to work on the shape next time.

Yesterday I went to a dear friend's birthday party. I was seated at a table with total strangers and the night went on with more mingling afterwards. It took most of my energy. Few things are as demanding as socialising with strangers to me. It was nice but the only company I want now is Bilbo's.

Dinner is ready, but I'm not hungry. Now waiting for 'valvakan' to begin. No idea how to translate it into English, but you follow the results live as they come in with expert comments. (I wish I were a gibbon so that I could use my feet to grab the glass and bring it to my mouth, to be honest).

I dreamt that I was reading passages from "Das Nibelungenlied", which I sometimes do although it's been a while since now, so I'll take it as an inspirational dream.
