Anniversary
It's our fourth anniversary today. I've got a gift for Johanna and tomorrow we'll go and have a good meal in a restaurant. It's been a good year, and even better ones will come!
(On a side note, it's also the 84th anniversary of the Finnish goverment system.)

Finnish coffee mania
Finland is the world leader in coffee consumption. It's something like an average of nine cups per day per person. Which is a lot, considering that many people don't drink coffee at all. Finland must be full of caffeine addicts.
This mania of coffee drinking can be seen in various places. Today, I went shopping for groceries. Coffee was on sale - half a kilo packet of quality coffee was only 1,69 euros. Because of this amazingly cheap price (perhaps 50 cents less than usually), there was a sign that said "Only for households. No more than 10 packets/household."
And I was thinking about buying 11 packets! Darn. Then I just went on with my shopping, buying exactly one packet of different kind of coffee which cost me exactly two euros.

Another PayPal fraud
Once again I'm targeted by a PayPal fraud. This time they asked me to verify my e-mail address. The URL revealed it, though... They tried to use the old trick of using the right address as a username for a fraud site, so the URL looked like this:
https://www.paypal.com:[long string of mixed characters]@some.fraudsite.com
Nice try, but I didn't fall for it. Instead I forwarded both of the messages (which made it more obvious they were fakes, why would PayPal send me two similar requests...) to PayPal spoof checkers.
