I got on a scale few days ago and got the proof first hand that my life preserver in my mid section has in deed gotten bigger. I've only gained +/- 2kg as weight and my pants still fit fine but I'm getting softer, if you know what I mean. Maybe as a result of that I've taken on a new hobby; evening stroll. It also is a useful tool to run some errands. Anyway...I'm now at a weight where I can actually donate blood so it's not like I'm heavy or anything...
So, yesterday I went to take a walk. I was so pissed off that I just had to go outside and take it out on something, so what better than to put on some great motivating music and go pound the pavement. On my walk I had to pass this older couple, maybe in their late 60's or early 70's who were holding hands. It was so cute! I was like "I want that when I'm old" (sooner wouldn't hurt either), to still be in love with someone when your old and grey and smelly enough to want to show that to the world.
Then today I found and ally in the city center that I've never seen before in my life! And mind you, I've lived in this city 24 years of my life so you'd think I'd seen it before. And what's more bizarre, it's about 100 meters from my apartment. Next to the kindergarden I went to when I was a kid. Crazy! And as I came home from said evening stroll, my Facebook newsfeed was full of EARTHQUAKE! Apparently there was an earthquake on the east coast of US of A and everybody is talking about it. Brent Celek, the Tight End for Philadelphia Eagles said on twitter that he dropped a dumbbell...he apologized for it though. But damn, it was felt all the way from DC to NY. That's a lot of land to cover. Mother Earth is pissed!
Speaking of Facebook...it has this new annoying feature that announces your status update from a year ago if you made one. A year ago I was looking forward to my birthday and the ex to arrive to celebrate it with me so I had a countdown. So every day now when I go on to Facebook on the upper right hand side corner I see a number flashing. Annoying, to say the least!
I woke up this morning from a dream that was a little disturbing. In my dream I was in my bed when the front door opened and the landlord came in announcing that the TV license inspector was on his way and I should be prepared. When he leaves, I get out of bed, go to my living room to remove the TV that I don't own, and hide it in the walk-in closet. I get that done but before I'm able to move the digibox or playstation or even dust the TV table, the front door opens again and my landlord and the inspector walk in. I'm trying to explain that I don't own a TV and that the PS and digibox are not really mine but it doesn't fly. And as I really don't have ~500 euros for TV license fees and the interest that not paying it have incurred, I'm in deep shit. But then the Inspector says "How about you pay for 2 weeks and then cancel?" Like he sees this every day and knows how little money people have and just can't come up with the money for it. And I'm like Awww, that's so nice.
Till next time!
