Did my shopping today. Eggs and bakey potatoes and pork slices. All set for dindin.

Made nice omelette. I saw this cooking show the other day, wherein they made omelettes. And they sort of turned half of it over. Like a taco? Or something, almost. Anyway, I would have never thought of that myself. How exotic. So I tried that. Turned out excellente. Had salad with it. When I first moved out I bought lots of salad to eat with my dinners, in an effort to eat right and be responsible. Then little by little I forgot about that and stopped. Maybe I’ll try and get into the hang of things again.

PS. Here is a song what I like: Why Does My Heart. I hated the video the first time I saw it, now I love it. What a metaphor for life. No wait, not a metaphor: That other thing. A palindrome. A palindrome for life. Yes.

What have I been doing?

On Friday I slept a lot. Too much. As I sometimes do. On the plus side I had a nice dream wherein I was in love with a sweet girl. What the heart is full of. It had a funny ending too. In the dream I was still living with my parents. My dad had turned on the water and was getting ready to take a shower. I said “I have to use the bath room”. He said “but I’m going to take a shower now” and I said “but I REALLY have to use the bath room”. Then I woke up. And I REALLY had to use the bath room. I always find it interesting when real life infects the dream like that. Like the time I dreamt of the ocean and woke up to the sound of the wind moving the leaves in the tree outside my window. It sounded like waves against the shore.

On Saturday I fed the animals. Nice as always. There were several visitors there. A woman asked me “are you always open in the weekend?” and I said “no, only for the feeding of the animals, otherwise it’s closed” and she said to her little girl “oh we were lucky then”. That happens regularly. People coming to see the animals and just happening to be there when I’m there. It’s nice when people feel lucky because you’re there. Well, I know they don’t feel lucky because it’s ME who’s there. But still.

The mother and girl watched me feed the goats as well. Thor was burying his head in the trough and the girl asked her mother what that goat was called. I turned around and said that it was Thor. And then she asked what the other goats were called. And I told her. I like when I get to introduce or talk about the goats.

Thor himself. It almost looks like we’re embracing, maybe dancing. But there is a door between us.

Also on Saturday I bought a lamp. And then I returned it. There were several parts missing. Instead of getting it exchanged I decided to get my money back. Which turned out to be a good idea since later that day my dad was visiting and casually mentioned that my brother had a surplus lamp that he was getting rid off. Exactly what I was needing. And free is the best price there is.

Today has been quite quiet. The Euro 2008 final was the highlight. Spain beat Germany 1-0 to take the title. Well deserved and long overdue. Spain always has an exciting team but it’s been a long time since they got any results for it. But tonight they are campeones.

I have been watching a fair bit of the footie with my dad. The evening games. He’ll come around and we’ll watch the first half. Then he catches a bus at half time and watches the second half at home. It’s been nice watching some games with him. Football is a shared interest.

And that’s about it. I have a funny craving for omelette. And baked potatoes. And pork roast. It’s the middle of the night now, but I feel like having dinner. I’lll have to go shopping tomorrow. Since I currently have no eggs, no bakey potaties and no pork.

Dinner will have to wait.
