It´s in the mail
I seriously doubt this blog will be useful as a guide to become a Connecticut Yankee and it´s not really my aim. I just figured it would be a cool title for an Icelanders blog who´s eventually moving there and of course by naming it that, honor the great Mark Twain at the same time.
In October 2004 I met an American woman at Iceland Airwaves Music Festival. We got to talking and since she was travelling alone I invited her to join me and my friends when we changed venues which she accepted. She joined us the following night as well. Then we said goodbye and we thought that was it.
Months later I received an e-mail from her and we started corresponding. I think it took me not more than 2 weeks to fall in love with her, it took her somewhat longer to fall in love with me. Anyway we ended up in love, and together, engaged the 12th of April and in different countrys. We aim to change that and today Rebecca mailed the forms for a fiancé visa up to Vermont.
We hope it won´t take to much time to process and aim to get married in the US the 30th of September.
Other things, it´s apparently still winter here in Iceland and it´s been really cold lately. We thougt it was summer already after a few really warm days. I hope summer is not done with us already.
Today when driving home from work I discovered a fith gear in my car, I´ve had it for two years. That´s kind of embarrassing since I´m a bit of a car guy. In my defense I have to say that the gear stick says it´s only four gears and I just believed that. Hey if I wasn´t a bit of a car guy I probably wouldn´t have been messing around like that and wouldn´t have found the fifth gear.

Sæll, "Reykjandi Róni". Vá, flott indjánanafn, eða hvað?
Eru búinn að sjá "The Proposition" - Nick Cave skrifaði handritið. Þetta ku vera jafnvel blóðugri vestri en "Dead Man". Gerist m.a.s. í Ástralíu.
já ekki slæmt indjánanafn
Er byrjað að sýna myndina, ef svo er þá hefur hún farið alveg fram hjá mér.
You prick! Nice story about the car - I always knew it :)
