%#JENS HAS SWINE FLU :( >}

Jens Lekman has swine flu?! Poor guy. Guess I won't bee seeing him in concert anytime soon.

This is what he said on his official website:

"I picked home one last souvenir from South America, it's called the H1N1 virus. Wrongfully known as the Swineflue.

I was crossing the Atlantic when things started getting really bad, the fever was hallucinogenic and shaking me like a leaf and I grabbed the sleeve of the Air France steward. "I'm not feeling well, I should see a doctor" I said and the reply came as a brilliant mix of death anxiety and french rudeness: "Uh, yes... Terminal D... go there maybe... when we land". After that the stewards and stewardesses took long detours. A ring of empty seats formed around me. Peoples eyes were kind but determined, they read "Poor you, I really wish you all the best but if you come near me or my kid I will have to stab you with this plastic fork". I got up and went to the bathroom where I fainted.

Now I'm in quarantine for ten days. I can see the summer through my window and it's just perfect. Summer is always best through a window.
"

LOL Great guy that Jens. 'Summer is always best through a window' Excellent. Hopefully this inspires him for new songs and some great new lyrics!

Thanks to Stereogum for mentioning this!

So apart from going to the supermarket downstairs to grab a bite I had not really left the house and walked the streets since Sunday. Have been too busy working on my thesis. So I was surprised how nice the weather is. I mean, I knew it was warm and I can see the sun shining from my room, but I had no idea it was so nice. Inside it's really hot, but when you go outside it's just perfect. Not too warm. It's not like you're covered in sweat after just 15 minutes out. So I was pleasantly surprised.
I ended up buying five DVDs after meeting up with my supervisor. I'll try to send him a new and final version by Monday. Afterwards it will be the start of my summer vacation! :D
First Ratatat tomorrow evening. Can't wait. Finally a gig again. I've been missing going to concerts. Wish it was May again :(
