With all the great TV shows on nowadays I can’t help but wonder how long this apparent underdog is going to last and if anyone else is watching it besides me and my mother. There must be some though, because it managed to make it to a second season. I belong to many different BitTorrent websites (which I use to …

Ik Wil Mijn Rijbewijs!
This piece of pink paper has been causing me serious anxiety lately. It’s a Dutch drivers license and dammit I want one! When I first moved to the Netherlands I had my Canadian DL for almost 10 years already. Before moving here I got an international DL which was good for 6 months after moving here. We didn’t have a …

Oh my god… You have not lived until you’ve slept on fleece sheets. Before you think (as I did) “No fucking way, too warm!“, bear with me. When my parents were here in May, they brought us over a set of fleece sheets. The first thing I thought was, “oh gawd I’ll never sleep on those and they will take …
Read More »I Talk Too Little
Or, talk about my life in the Netherlands to little, according to my second blog review that just came in from Avitable at IT2M, owwie! I’m braindead and can’t figure out how the heck to get a link to my specific review so I’ll quote it here, even though it pains me to do so. Can you imagine if Dorothy Gale kept a …

Day 82 on 25peeps and once again I’m surrounded by slores. What is a slore? Well, according to my friend Darryn it’s a cross between a slut and a whore. I’ve decided I like that word because it brings together the utter desperation of both the slut and the whore. It also works perfectly to describe these women surrounding me …
Read More »Home Alone
It’s been a week since my darling hubby ran off to the South of France to visit his family. Like the times when he goes away for work, I’m weird before he leaves and just after he leaves, but then I’m fine. The week has gone by quite quickly and other than some shopping, a haircut and a visit to the …
Read More »BAM!’s First Hate Mail
Today we at BAM! got our first hate mail! I expected this of course, since people who put music on their blogs obviously know how much people hate it and keep it there anyway, so they will have some absurd inner rationalization about how we are all nuts and they are like the underdog ‘artists’ of the blog world. Umm.. …

Grab the Scavenger Hunt code. Photo Theme. Join the blogroll. Visit participants. The Photo Hunt this week is sleeping. I wasn’t sure what photo to post, since I have some nice photos of all my pets sleeping and I’m sure I have 1-2 of my hubby as well. So I went through my photos and when I found this, I …
Read More »Slightly Drunk
If the header in this post didn’t give it all away already, you must be living under a rock. My visitor for this week is the dude from Slightlydrunk.com, I say ‘the dude’ because I have no idea what his name is, nor do I care. All I know is he’s as funny as HELL! Basically, he’s this guy who …
Read More »BAM! – I’ve Had Enough! – FOAD
After bitching about them and blaming things on them, I’ve decided enough was enough and it was time to stop talking and do something about it! That is how BAM! was born. After bitching and moaning, growling, groaning and being generally discontent over people and their stupid fucking music blaring uninvitedly out of my speakers, I have started a protest. …
Read More »Molly & Cleo
Well since they have been living with us for almost two weeks, it’s probably time to introduce them! Molly (on the left) and Cleo are our baby dumbo eared rats. We bought them two weeks ago after falling in love with them in one of our local pet stores. They are almost three months old and are very very cute! …
