Do you remember ages ago when I made a post about Fox News and their opinions on the Netherlands?  Well, the bastards are at it again!  Recently a video has come out where Bill O’Reilly gave his backwards opinions on Amsterdam.  FU Bill O’Reilly, FU!!! Sometimes I think this is more home than even I realize because when I see …

Growing up the child of a musician, I know how much their instruments mean to them.   When I was younger I would never have dreamed of taking out my father’s guitar and playing with it, although I’m sure he would have loved if I’d wanted to later on.   It’s their creative outlet and they choose their instruments with great care …

If you are a friend of mine on Facebook or have followed me on Twitter, you’re fully aware that my anxiety levels were through the roof this year during the holidays.  Mainly between Christmas and New Years. Why?  – Because of the firecrackers, bangers, fireworks and everything else that went off causing my dogs to spin circles.  It’s not just …

If you had asked me a month ago if I had any space in my house I would have laughed.  Between me, the pets, my husband and all our furniture I felt like we were completely crowded. I SO wish I felt that way again right now. My parents left this morning and if I’m honest, I thought I’d be …

Ok so we had contacted the company that hosts my domain and they said they were going to monitor the servers and see what was going on.   This is what they sent to my husband the other day: We were able to resolve your website without any latency. We suggest you to try with other browsers like Flock, Mozilla or …

There is something that’s been bugging me for a while, and I’m so about to rant about it. At the moment the walkway in front of our building is like a minefield of dog shit.   When we are going to the car or walking the dogs we have to watch every step we take because there is dog shit everywhere… …

This is me. This is me counting to ten. This is me killing everyone in my immediate surroundings in a PMS Rage. Today I am home having my turn to be with the plumbers and welders that are working on the pipes in the building.   What started out as a leak in our bathroom has turned into a leak in …

One (more) thing I love about where I work is the view.   On the 10th floor in the middle of the city, I can see quite a lot.   So if I have a minute it’s nice to watch people out and about doing their thing.   It’s also nice when the sun is going down and we all know it’s almost …

Ok, enough is enough.   This ongoing strike of the Writers Guild of America has got to stop!  They are driving the viewers to desperate lengths, making us watch shows we might ordinarily avoid IF there was something better on to watch.   Not only that, but they canceled our Golden Globes! Bastards! Ok, I’m not totally unsympathetic to their cause.  I …

This week I want Eneco (our current, and soon to be former, energy company) to FUCK OFF AND DIE!  Argh, I hate them to the very core of my existence!! When we got back from Canada we got a huge bill from them that we weren’t expecting, and the entire amount was taken out of our account in one huge …

Living outside of my home country, I download TV shows daily via Bit Torrent.   There are a number of sites I belong to, some private, some public… and I depend on them to keep me up to date with the shows I am missing.   Dutch TV leaves a lot to be desired so I’m thankful to be able to do …
