Dang Compute Us
Last night I dreamt that I was going mad. it was quite convincing. At one point I was screaming at the mirror because I couldn’t see my reflection. Maybe I was just a vampire, I don’t know.
I am tired of being sick. And sick of being tired etc.
Tomorrow is my birthday. Wednesday. You are all invited. Probably. Well, not really. It won’t be a big party. Me and my mother will be having cake. My brother might be there unless he’s working. Then we’ll have chicken for dinner because that’s my favourite food. And that is how all of my birthdays have been for many years. I wouldn’t mind, some day in the future, to actually have a party. Or gathering. Or something. Something with friends. If I will ever have them.
Tomorrow I will bring home my Tina Dickow live DVD and my 19 inch flatscreen monitor. Presents for myself. Not too shabby. I will also swing by Musikhuset and get tickets for Tina’s concert. It’s in December, but this time I won’t put it off. The concert in May was sold out when I finally pulled myself out of depression and self-pity to go and get tickets. Tsk.
Speaking of Tina Dickow, she had a song featured in Grey’s Anatomy. Kewl. Although I don’t watch that show. She had a song in Tru Calling too. So even if you’re an American with no access to Danish music you might still have heard a couple of her songs. And her album, In The Red, is available in stores too. Not to mention the fact that she is touring the US and UK. dates here. Support the good cause and go see her if you can.
I have made an appointment with my therapist from the group sessions. I don’t know if I explained it all properly, but we were going to have that followup meeting with the group. I was sick and missed it. But now I’ll go see her on my own. I am not particularly looking forward to it. I haven’t really lived up to the plan we made. But maybe seeing her will be just the thing I need to get back on track. Let’s hope so.
I am watching Degrassi Junior High. The original series. It’s like reliving my childhood. And I still have a crush on Caitlin. Which is a little creepy now that I’m old enough to be her dad. But true love waits.
Must again send out a thank you to Lindsay who sent me a Mutts comicbook. You shouldn’t have! Oh who am I kidding, you definitely should. Hehe. I love it. I love Mutts, as you might have guessed from the Suicidal Fish dedications. It makes me smile. And I have discovered that I never read the first strips before. So this book was absolutely perfect. Thank you.
I think that about covers it for today. Oh no, animals too. Yesterday I went to the playground. Not too bright of me, being sick and all. But I hadn’t seen the goats since last Wednesday. On Thursday I came back from the Photoshop course so late that the playground was closed. It was closed on Friday too, because of some course. That’s what the note in the window said anyway. And on Saturday and Sunday I was feeling so bad that even the thought of seeing the goats couldn’t get me to go out. So on Monday I popped up for a quick hello.
And of course that made me happy. They always do.
And then Moomincat came around. He was a little wet. It was raining outside. Just a little drizzle though. He seemed tired, didn’t want to walk around the house. He just lied down on my bed, next to me. His breathing was sort of raspy. But I could hear him calming. His breath evening out. Getting softer. His head falling slowly down. Until he was just a big ball of fur sleeping next to me. So sweet.
He did get up again though. And followed me around a little.
Signs of my soda addiction. I always fall back.
He’s good at posing for the camera.
And he sat down at our old computer.
Where my brother usually sits while he waits for me to get off our new one so he can go online. I should set up a network sometime so we can all be online. Some time.
He came by today too, but not through my window. I heard my mother in the living room going “get out, you”. I went in there and Moomincat was hiding under the couch while my mother was shooshing him. I had to pull him out from under there and let him out. I hope he won’t be mad at me.
So there you go. Now I must go rest before the big day.
