Not a very active day: I really enjoyed the weekend;) Did do some tasks around the house today: wash dishes, recycle glass, clean staircase and entrance (every neighbor has to do this every six weeks), but mostly had a lot of fun:
Went to see Lemony Snicket in the afternoon (after finishing book 3) and had some time to stroll along the market before that (bought a new pocketwatch:) Loved the film btw (zie bioslog)!
Spent night in front of tv (CSI) and computer (mail and CSI;0). Went to bed really really late, it was after three...

Another fairly normal day, was a little late for work, 'cause on the way I made a stop in the cardshop and got a bit carried away;) Had a lot to do the rest of the day and decided to take a later bus, so I could go hunt the shops for an orange wastepaperbasket mum wants for her bathroom. Didn't find it of course, so I had to compensate and bought a lot of tasty stuff instead;) (didn't want to go home empty-handed;) Got sick on the bus, after eating a couple (or more) of 'fantasy'(=fake) chocolates, but at home I calmed my stomach down by filling it up with a lot of warm meatballs (small sized, don't worry;). I felt a lot better:-)
Spent the evening in front of the tv and reading on the computer (found a very interesting CSI fanfiction-site this week... don't ask;)

Okay.... yesterday, when I said I was gonna watch some DVD's, I lied! Instead I took a long shower and went to bed: I can be such a grown-up sometimes;)
But tonight after eating a very sensible warm meal (6 vegetables-mash with bratwurst;) I did sit down for my dose of Seinfeld. It really never gets boring, I could watch these episodes a million times and they would still make me laugh:)
Halfway through the fourth episode mum popped in* to tell me all about her afternoon with my grandparents, who came to admire her new appartment. Of course I made her sit down and watch the rest of Seinfeld, before I would listen;-) (I was very nice, even turned on the subtitles for her;)
A great evening at the end of a pretty average day.

*) a very clever reference to Seinfeld Episode 10 - The Apartment :o)

Finally finished my long weblog-entry in my 'normal' log, so it's time to update this corner of my world;)
Work is slowly building up. These past few weeks with Xmas and NewYears have been unusually quiet. For the first time in a year I had time to clean up our archives and it has been over seven years since I spent more than 2 days between all those old files. I got a little nostalgic between the folders and found it to be very relaxing to not sit in front of a computer all day;)
A very good thing, since the days before the Holiday-season were very busy and stessfull. Not only because of the workload, but also thanks to the annoying changes in the bussystem, that forced me to make a lot of phonecalls to buscompanies and other 'authorities'. I do not want to get into that again, I've just been writing it all down in Dutch and that was depressing enough, so here I'll just type that I finally got my new buspass today and will be able to show the hilarious picture to busdrivers from tomorrow...;)

I started a new work-out schedule tonight, got a little bored with the old exercises and machines, after two years of using more and more weights and repetitions it was time for a new challenge:) Tried the rowing-machine again, which was a little intimidating after my first experience about 3 years ago. The idiot-substitute trainer didn't give any instructions then and I hurt my weak back after only two strokes. Have been avoiding the machine ever since. But now my back is stong enough to try it again, so I told Carolien to write it down on my new schedule:)
I did kind of okay, still a bit wobbly, but I'm sure I will be much better next time (and the week after that and the weeks after that;)

More big news: I'm learning to handle my regular dvd-player! (as opposed to the one on my computer, that I figured out a long time ago;) Thanks to the Seinfeld Series 1-3 my mum and her boyfriend got me for my birthday I'm starting to get used to actually using the video/dvd combination for more than just recording (which reminds me: forgot to tape 'De Band' tonight, grumble) and am discovering more and more useful buttons, woohoo.
Also managed to make my DVD/DivX player work for all regions, so in my Attic-turned-Cinema I'm able to watch discs from all over the world:-)

Enough with the log, I'm gonna play with my DVD-collection!

Yes, my computer is working again and I almost figured out all the new stuff and programs that are on it now. Updated my movielog (BeeLikeJ's Bios) and will definatly start this blog again soon;)
