Haaaaaaa, no more hot water and I failed to fix that. Cold shower, I hadn't missed you.

Blech, no fun. Cold showers have their place, but that place is after you've been mucking around in the heat on a sunny summer day. Not under other circumstances. ;p

Present circumstance will be "curling up in my blanket and sleep" because 1. it's far too late because of this problem and the time I tried to fix it without any result and 2. I feel cold now.

I'm feeling very sick and low-energy so that mean I'll have to miss school tomorrow, probably, and that is not fun. Ah well. I guess I may as well go to bed now.

Luth, feel better soon! Hope you're taking hot lemon and ginger tea, with honey; that's good for a whole range of respiratory and digestive problems, as well as general grunge and lurgy!

Apparently Burger King have added a sauna to one of their branches in Helsinki. Complete with branded towels.

Saunas are everywere in Finland. I have been told that it is the first thing that finnish peacekeepers build/bring in when they go on a mission. Others dig foxholes :)

According to some of my Finnish friends, when you build a house, the sauna is the first thing that gets put in.  (Which is why I wonder how Tuuri and Lalli are surviving out it the Silent World)

It is hard to do now with building regulations. But people still tend to start planning their house on where to place the sauna. In the old days sauna was a separete building and that could be built first.

And now I really want to go search for a place with a sauna nearby. Again. So I know I probably won't find anything.

I'm debating on whether or not I'd use the burger king sauna if I ever went to Helsinki. Part of me just wants to have the novelty of telling my friends in the states "why yes, I did go to the burger king spa !" and being in a sauna where you can order food does sound neat. On the other hand, I only associate burger king with gross greasyness that I only get when I'm on road trips, plus if I'm ever in Finland I'm sure with how common saunas are it wouldn't be the only sauna in all of Finland I could order food in and I'm sure I'd be able to find one with better food. Then again, maybe not, heat does kind of ruin my appetite usually so I'm wondering if eating in a sauna would give me a tummy ache =/
