I've got that damned nicotene monkey on my back again. Drooling in my hair and breathing down my neck, it's an ugly sight.



It's the stress. And of course K. is a terrible influence. She goes cigarette crazy whenever she's here. She keeps sending me monosyllabic e-mails (her desk is on the floor above mine) such as "cig?" or my personal favorite, "fag?"



The Swedish word for the day is apa. It means monkey.
