Developed country problem #1: My bread gets ruined when I try to butter it due to the butter being too cold.

I dreamt that someone was shooting at me. I was just dialling 911 when I woke up. You know, sometimes I really think I'm paranoid.
I'm not sure what triggered that dream, but I woke up to a sun shining very brightly in my face and noticing the location of it (the sun, not my face) I was fairly sure it was after 4pm in the afternoon. Great, another day ruined. I might aswell go back to sleep. And I tried. It's just very hard to sleep when you get energy injected straight into your head like that. So I gave up, stumbled to my couch where I left my mobile phone yesterday and checked what time it was. 9:18am. That meant a) 6 hours of sleep and b) I didn't ruin the day. Hooray! I continued to stumble out in my kitchen and grab a new book and for the past two and a half hours I've been reading it. (I've also done my dishes, but that isn't really relevant here. Yes, I know - nothing is ever really relevant here.)

Män som hatar kvinnor is directly translated to Men who hate women and it's such a fitting title for it. The funny thing about the movie is that a lot of people in it are very well-known in Sweden and the guy who's the worst of the bunch is usually portrayed as a really nice, genuine guy. When I grew up we had a Christmas calendar on TV about a guy who loved lots of girls and his family. The asshole played this guy's father and everyone who's around my age recognises him as it. Quite funny.
It was on my list over books I'd tell people I thought about reading but never actually planned to. I think almost every Swedish person who reads had heard of it long before the movie hit. I certainly had but I'm a bit prejudice, you see. I don't read Swedish authors. I don't really know why - but maybe it has something to do with school when you were forced to read all the time. Of course, that wouldn't explain why I don't mind reading books written by foreign authors. Maybe I'm just a bit of an idiot - surely wouldn't be the first time. Of course, this book is a crime-novel - a genre I'm not particularly fond of. It's like Fast Food Nation all over again - I'm reading another novel that I never planned on picking up in the first place. I have a feeling this will be an exciting year.
