New! Nuevo! Nouveau!

 

Is it the working DSL connection, the boring jobless life or a combination of both? Anyhow, the (few) frequent visitors of this site must have noticed: my blog’s lay-out has changed completely. A little bit by Blogskins and a lot by me!

So: do you like it? Or not? Please comment! The “old” lay-out can be reviewed in the archives section.

GOOOOAAAAL!!!

 

I can imagine that this Indian soccer team tried to make the sport (sorry, men) less boring, but I think they over-did it just a little…. It must have been a great to watch for the supporters (of the winning teams, that is), though I think the stadion speakers might have lost their voices.

Personally, I only watch soccer games between Australia and any Polynesian country (LOL).

Return of the Queen

 

Here’s…. Solly!

Do I need to say more?! I am back, and hopefully for good! As long as the hardware keeps doing its job… It is great to live in the fast lane again (can you imagine that I had not seen the Paris Hilton thing yet?! Snap fingers for Punkeydotcom)

Deaf, numb and blind

 

I have been silent for a while and I will remain silent for a little bit longer… Of course, totally against my will!

I’ll cut the drama and tell y’all my shores: my DSL is not working. Yet it took 5 days of 0900-phone calls, a lot of “hold please” and several referrals to others (until I returned to the first person…), before I found out on my own that the culprit was in fact my modem. So, I sent it off to its manufacturer and they will repair it – thank god for a 5 year warranty! A bit of a downer is that I now have to work with an analogue modem… Back to the stone age, that slow!

So, be patient. Bare with me, cross your fingers, light a candle and pray for the fast recovery of my DSL modem!

Your milk or your life!

 

A cow went for a stroll in a German bank…

I.M.

 

One of my parent’s cats has been put to sleep last night. He was 18 years old. He suffered from braindamage, paralyzed back paws… Old age in general, I suppose.

Kraak (in English: Crow) had lived with my parents since 1992 and got his name because he was black and his inability to meow properly. Instead, he produced a “Kraa-ouw” sound.

I’ll definately miss him!

Just the three (?!) of us

 

Yesterday I was depressed about the (temporal) absence of my love, today I am about his presence. Why, you ask?

Well, the past couple of days, he was physically here, but his mind was not. When I asked him what was the matter, he just sighed. Yesterday, he admitted to me, there’s another, he’s in love with… And it gets even worse! This morning, the phone rang. My love picked it up, gave one-syllable answers and rushed out of the apartment. I checked the number. Local, but unfamiliar to me. I dialed it: a woman’s voice at the other end. I hung up. Half an hour later, my love returned, big smile on his face. He said:”I would like you to meet my new love.” He took her to my apartment and now he’s in my wintergarden, touching her… I can hear her excited noises…

I know this is only a temporal fling, he will eventually return to me. But until then, I’ll have to accept his new lover! I have secretly taken a photo of my rival, see how pretty she is? I can’t compete with that?!

Silence, my dear!

 

Funny how fast you can get used to someone around again… I had the house for myself for 6 months, but my love returned from Asia (not one of the chickenflu countries!) last Sunday. Today, he is at school and I actually think it’s quiet…. (However: I do have both computers to myself again.)

Nipplegate

 

After they gave the most talked-about show ;-) at the Superbowl, Justin and Janet have admitted that it was not an accident… They thought it up after the final rehearsals and it is said, that a red lace garment was supposed to remain when Timberlake tore off the bustier. But widespread questions remain about the intent… Why wear such a cool piercing, if you’re not gonna show it?
