Two turntables and a laptop

 

My Love has two passions (three, if you include me, yet I think my place is behind the two): dj-ing and computers. And now he has found a way too combine them… and I have definately dropped off his list! Native Traktor DJ studio 2 the evil-doer is called… The “ultimate tool for advanced dj mixing” can be translated to: “your Love will be behind YOUR computer all till past the wee-hours, sleep till midmorning and return to the computer – that has been downloading new music in the meantime… ” I can only acces the computer when he’s asleep, yet I had to promise I did not terminate the downloading…

What’s the thing with ‘men and computers’?

It’s a small world after all

 

Thanks to Punkey‘s follow-up game, a friend from way back – when I still had long hair, no tatoos and no degree – has found me. Fun.

Let’s have a beer, Djasp!

OMG

 

How pathetic is this:

“The British sitcom ‘Are You Being Served?‘ faces being toned down or even axed because of the double entendre jokes, reports The Sun. Typical lines from the 30-year-old show set in a department store include Molly Sugden as Mrs Slocombe, saying: “It’s a wonder I’m here at all. My pussy got soaking wet. I had to dry it out in front of the fire.” The moral clampdown follows Janet Jackson’s nipple-revealing performance at the 2004 Superbowl.”

Have they gone back to Victorian prudence?! The average American child will witness over 200,000 acts of violence on television including 16,000 murders before age 18 (source), yet Mrs Slocombe gets banned?!

Frankenstein

 

Hi! I am Dory, Solly’s computer. My memory is very bad. I keep forgetting stuff… Today I am getting a bigger and better brain. Cool, huh?!

Who are you? Do I know you? What are you doing here? Are you following me around? Go away!

Four weddings and a handbag

 

I have to shop today. For a new outfit. Or three. (By the way: not the shop-aholic “have to”, but the “I don’t like to do it, but there are several reasons why I- have to”). I have a big party on Saturday, the Four Day Marches next week and a wedding next month. (No, not mine. My brother-in-law’s wedding – technically: My Love’s brother’s wedding, ’cause were not married. Yet.) Anyway, this means I need three different pants, 4 tops (one spare), shoes, earrings, … And a new handbag. I don’t like to buy clothes – they never sell what I like – but I like – no, love, no, crave – to buy handbags. To make sure that I return with 3 outfits and only one handbag, and not the other way around, I take my friend Elle with me. She likes – no, loves, no, craves – clothes, not handbags. We neutralise each others’ addictions…

Controversy

 

Dave Kopel claims to have found 59 deceits in Michael Moore ´s controversial movie Farenheit 911… Even if this is true, the movie remains a very powerful statement against the Bush administration, yet Moore does lose a (tiny?) bit of his credibility…

Sporting is bad for your body!

 

Friday-night I discovered I don’t fit into my favorite party-pants anymore. I can’t pull them higher than halfway up my thighs. Apparently, my thighs have grown bigger in the past couple of months.

I am shocked. I am puzzled. How could this have happened? I do Pilates, I am walking a lot – 40 km every Saturday… I have a six-pack, a waist, my body is sculpted, it’s just the thighs.

I mentioned this little drama to my dad, while we were halfway our weekly 40 km walk – walking this distance takes about 6.5 hours, so you talk a lot, about anything: serious stuff, fun stuff, I know about his life and work, he knows everything about my life, my friends, their lives… He looked at me and laughed. I told him, that it was not funny. Now I have to buy new pants or consider Reduce-Fat-Fast or liposuction! He said: “You walk a lot more often and further than you did before. Have you ever considered the fact that with long-distance walking you increase the muscular tissue in your legs. Especially in the calves, upper-legs, thighs and lower-bum. ..”

*sigh* That’s why I never sported: unwanted side-effects…
