Let's keep this short

I have so much to write about but I'm kinda over it but in the spirit of keeping my 3 readers up-to-date on what's going on in my life, here we go:

1. I'm moving next Friday. The building was my first choice in Forssa so something's going my way! It's a one bedroom apartment and I think it will be awesome! Elviira and Mikko donated me some of their old furniture and they are also gonna be my moving help along with my family. Much appreciated guys!

2. I have a job interview on the 7th for project manager job. It's few months with the possibility for it to continue till next fall, if funding comes through. It's 100m from my apartment so it would be a rough commute to work each day but if they pay me enough I guess I could suffer it for a few! ;-)

3. Happy Birthday Mikko!

4. Elviira is making me blueberry pie on our independence day and I believe it'll be the final straw that'll make sure I get the job! And if not, I guess we will have to continue this until I get a job. Me getting blueberry pie the day before interview, not necessarily only on independence day!

5. It's is COLD! I mean COLD! and my winter clothes are still in Brooklyn! Gotta love me some idiotic me! It was very important to have many shorts and T-shirts for the month that it was actually warm in Finland after I get back instead of thinking ahead to the future for the cold winter. I couldn't have seen the break up though so I guess I shouldn't kick myself too hard. I mean I thought I'd have a job by now and could have gone there for a long weekend or something...and get more of my stuff from there.

6. I'm still waiting for my lottery win! I will be a lottery winner some day, I know it! In the meantime...

7.I'm still addicted to Grey's anatomy and will try to live by: the world is your oyster, make lemonade! Even though I don;t think I like either...but others might enjoy the lemonade so I'll offer it to someone. And lime's can be used for Corona's and guacamole.

8. I have a cat fever. And it's not just because I miss Sox and B and their company during the day. I guess in a way me having something that would sort of tie me to Finland will make this break up and me staying in Finland/Europe for awhile more real. Like not talking to Tiffany every day doesn't make it real but this would be a concrete touchable thing...my cat! I have been on websites that have cats looking for homes. OYG! there are some cuties out there and they are just waiting for me to come get them! As soon as I get my finances in order I am adopting a cat! or 2. I will keep you updated.

9. I love smoked fish! There was a fish seller at the Joulutori today and my mom brought some rye bread with her and bought some smoked salmon. It is heaven on earth! mmmmm! Even though I miss some american foods and customs, there are some awesome finnish foods that I couldn't find in USA. I have been taking advantage as much as I can, first because I thought maybe I would be going back and now just for the hell of it! Life's short, make lemonade!

10. I have some interesting readers out there. Or places where they pop up. I have someone from Russia reading my blog and I'd like to know how people end up here. I guess it would be too much to ask to have them introduce themselves. The reoccurring ones I'd like to know how they ended up on my blog BUT you don't have to... and welcome! and please come back! At some point I noticed that if people googled Päivi Räsänen and gay rights and Finland, my blog was quite high up there! And for some reason people are still googling Jenny Sheckter and my blog apparently pops up there too. I'd still want to know though: who killed her?

11. Adriana is turning into a cutie pie! All I see is few pictures here and there on FB but she is starting to look like herself. She was a one month old when I left so I will not see her in person again and she was just a baby then but she is starting to look like her and you can see Johnny in her. Or I think she is looking like Johnny. Maybe little bit like Tiffany. And maybe she has some Carly in her too. I don;t see so much JoJo in her yet. I might be wrong though. Carly is just as cute as she was in the summer and she is gonna be a stunner! I miss them. But like I said, Adriana will never know that I was in her life and Carly will forget soon enough.

12. I need to either win this week on Fantasy Football or have one of 3 people lose and I'll secure my place in the play offs! Go Illegal Gayliens! Speaking off...gotta check out my line up one more time!

Later!
