All the age categories are different sizes from one another and it’s hurting my brain after all the courses I’ve taken that involved doing studies.

Funnily enough Denmark ranks number 4 on the [Legatum Prosperity Index](http://www.prosperity.com/#!/ranking), so it’s one of the happier/more content countries on earth. 😛

You ought to have it nice and bright down there compared us up here in northern sweden.  
Sun comes up only to leave for another 20 hours…

Atleast it’s a little better than the Finnish winter.

So sunny in Sweden! In Fairbanks, Alaska around the winter it’s 20 hours of darkness, 4 hours of twilight in the afternoon when the sun isn’t blocked out by smog.

I’m 29, later this year I will officially become ‘establishment’.

Kinda the same latitude (think thats the right measurement), so I’d say it’s pretty much the same here as it is in alaska.

Do say, is the moose as bountiful over there than it is here?  
Can’t drive too long without ramming into one…

Yeah, it’s the same, but Fairbanks is special because it sits in a valley so the sun never comes up over the hills. Least at my house.

Lots of moose for sure, and they get bold and angry doing the winter. Had one totally block off a busy intersection downtown a month ago, just paced around and acted like it was going to charge if anybody scooted up to move through. Moose are assholes. They quit salting the roads here because too many cars were crashing into the creatures as they came out of the woods to lick the roads.

So when you stay in to play C:DDA, it’s actually like a real-life simulator, what with the wrecked cars and murdermoose everywhere.

Dear god I am actually glad I only life in Canada.

Thank you everyone for reminding me that Texas is awesome, and I am fully justified in believing it is so.

Live is great an earth an interesting place.  
Apart from times in my life when i was in extreme pain or one of my friends or family members died (which already happened a lot so the positive thing is it can t happen a lot more) i was pretty much always at least content.

I am happy to be happy .

Haha, yeah, Cata moose are fairly realistic in that regard. I like the Urban Dictionary definition for Fairbanks, it’s cata-related.

well thats just creepy. In case you arn’t aware, most people don’t have night terrors of the Old Ones every night. Most nights I go without memorable dreams at all, though sometimes I work on being able to control my dreaming, so I can dream nice things, or use my dreams to enhance creativity and then wake up and solve a problem.
