I have cleaned up my apartment, that is to say, my bedroom is a semi mess, but that’s just because of the amount of unfolded laundry, should only take me one evening to sort that out as well (probably tomorrow night, as tonight is the last sunny evening in a while) I have had two [...]

I have just decided that I’ll throw my life around. I’ll clean up my apartment, starting tonight. I’m going to entertain people at my place more often again, I loved doing that, and I just never get around to it anymore. I might change the setup of the living room. I might close off the [...]

I’m sitting in a very comfortable kitchen, capuchino maker close by, laptop with Skype to muffin decapitating boy whom I missed dearly as he left for NYC on Wednesday (and I’m only returning from Switzerland on Monday!). On the table is a book, Northern lights, by Philip Pullman. Next to it, a coffee cup, my [...]

I wanted to write a post about my great weekend, my finished jeans and my awesome cabdriver Eduardo… However, nothing came of it, y’all can take a rain check, I’m too busy! ;-)

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 [...]
