*Yawn* It’s 7:15am now and I’m still tired but I can’t sleep. Wow, see how long it takes me to get just this far, from “Time” in the list above to writing this. I’m such a multitasker. The last week or so has been strange for me. After speaking to this Dutch guy who is living in Halifax and asking …

I’m stocked up to my eyeballs with doubt about moving home. I’m sure anyone who knows me and is reading this is thinking “FFS MAKE UP YOUR MIND!” but I’m really really confused. I’ve been back and forth like a ping-pong ball about the whole stay in Holland/move to Canada issue. I thought I was 100% sure about moving home, …

Our friend Alan just left. He was here visiting for the afternoon and evening, which was great because we haven’t seen him in a while. I love when we have him over because he’s British, so I can speak English without having to make sure to speak extra clearly etc. Not all Dutch people need that but most do. We …

Dutch weather, they say if you don’t like it just wait five minutes and it will change. They are so right. Today was hot. Not really hot as in 40 degrees hot but more like mid-high 20’s and so fucking humid. It’s been like that the last few days. It’s like you can’t tell if you’re sweating or if the …

Well we found a washer. It didn’t really take long, we went to two different stores and bought the cheapest one we could find. It cost us 314 euros (That’s $388 American/$513 Canadian), which is about 314 euros more than I would have liked to spend. It’s going to be delivered on Friday, so I can look forward to heaps …

Yup, the washer can’t be fixed. So now we have to buy a new one, which SUCKS!! We actually had a new washer that we bought when I moved over here, but when we moved to our new apartment the guy who lived here before us was selling his appliances. They were a better make than ours but we didn’t …

Now if only I could magically lose weight, make money, fix household appliances, stop cat shedding, clean litter and a million other things, life would be good.ARGH!  My washer is broken! I swear to god, just my luck. *sigh* I finally start getting some money saved towards moving home and my washer breaks. It couldn’t just hold out until I …

Man, what a world we live in. Am I the only one who thinks about the world and how fucked up it really is? OK so I don’t think about it all the time, actually I try to avoid thinking about it at all. I don’t read the paper, I don’t watch the news, I’m certainly not glued to CNN …

I’m still sick! Argh! I have this lingering cough that doesn’t plague me all day but just enough to make me feel more crap than well. At night it’s especially bad because it yanks me out of my sleep and I cough so hard I gag. Fun huh? Xander keeps telling me I should go to the doc but it’s …

Oh yeeeeaaah, the European Beta signups started today for World of Warcraft! You can still sign up here. Ok so I know I said I wasn’t going to game again after arsing around with City of Heroes but I just couldn’t help myself. I had to sign up.. Which was probably stupid because what if I try it and like …

Ok having a cold sucks.. and yes I’m whining, deal with it! My throat isn’t as sore anymore but god, who knew my little nose could produce so much snot! I was really kidding myself when I only bought ONE box of tissues at the supermarket yesterday.I just realized I don’t have much to talk about other than complaining. I …
