Am I feeling like a girl, woman or crone?

Up selling?

OK, I wanted lip balm, my favorite, Blistex Lip Relief Cream. So you walk into your standard drug-store, in this case, an Etos and go to the register, where they have a nice little stand with all types of lip cream imaginable to man. You can’t find yours immediately and ask if they have it [...]


Big plans

Sometimes you have one of those days, where you just suddenly realize what you want to do about something, a bit of inspiration here, a little bit of time there, and before you know it, nothing comes of any of your good plans to do one thing or another and you’re working away on something [...]


Archery

Yesterday was the official last night of our archery course. I’ll admit that Muffin-Decapitating-Boy missed two more lessons than me because he had to work late , so theoreticallyI had a four hour practise head start. To my great surprise, I didn’t come in last, actually, I came in 5th! (6 points and one “place” [...]


As good as it gets?

So someone linked me to a speed typing test (also available in Dutch for those who don’t want to have to think about English spelling) Your score: 363 CPM (that is 73 WPM) Congratulations! You typed all 56 words correctly! (CPM is characters per minute and WPM is words per minute) I must admit, this [...]


I…

I… don’t blog enough… Plenty that frustrates me, or excites me, or moves me… But hardly any time to sit down and blog about it… Next week I’m starting two courses, so I don’t know how much time I’ll have after, but it should be good fun, perhaps all the extra activity will give me [...]


Exciting weekend…

Last weekend was exciting to say the least… Piercing out, earring down the drain, minor nervous breakdown, MRI done, more nervous breakdown, good night’s sleep, piercing in, lovely dinner, surprisingly good movie… That just about sums it up. Other than that, I really don’t have anything to say.


Beauty

You cannot perceive beauty but with a serene mind. – Henry David Thoreau I pondered on that for a little while. I just realized that my life is so good right now, it’s the little things that make you see it. Someone was wining on IRC tonight, like this person had been doing all week, [...]


Coffee hell

I’m in coffee hell! This morning around 10, our old coffee machine was turned off, it wasn’t till 11 that an email was sent to notify us that our new machine was ready for use. Of course the lack of coffee in that particular hour is bad, very bad… I longed for a nice freshly [...]


Argh!

So my cat walks in, I can still feel the cold outside air in her fur as she walks past my head and wakes me up by gently limiting my breathing as she pushes a soft hairy blanket in my nose and mouth. I realize I’m thirsty, wake up completely and turn on the bedroom [...]


Is happiness a warm gun?

I’m happy today, I helped my brother with his first linux install, he needed xmms and little things like that. Lost in Amsterdam needed a little help finding the right flag for his purpose, the world was pretty and all is well… I realised how incredibly content everything made me, and I remembered the lyrics [...]
