At one point I was screaming at the mirror because I couldn&#8217;t see my reflection. Maybe I was just a vampire, I don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n<p>I am tired of being sick. And sick of being tired etc.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow is my birthday. Wednesday. You are all invited. Probably. Well, not really. It won&#8217;t be a big party. Me and my mother will be having cake. My brother might be there unless he&#8217;s working. Then we&#8217;ll have chicken for dinner because that&#8217;s my favourite food. And that is how all of my birthdays have been for many years. I wouldn&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;s concert. It&#8217;s in December, but this time I won&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of Tina Dickow, she had a song featured in Grey&#8217;s Anatomy. Kewl. Although I don&#8217;t watch that show. She had a song in Tru Calling too. So even if you&#8217;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. <a HREF=\"http:\/\/tinadico.com\/tours_dates\/upcoming_dates\/\">dates here<\/a>. Support the good cause and go see her if you can.<\/p>\n<p>I have made an appointment with my therapist from the group sessions. I don&#8217;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&#8217;ll go see her on my own. I am not particularly looking forward to it. I haven&#8217;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&#8217;s hope so.<\/p>\n<p>I am watching Degrassi Junior High. The original series. It&#8217;s like reliving my childhood. And I still have a crush on Caitlin. Which is a little creepy now that I&#8217;m old enough to be her dad. But true love waits.<\/p>\n<p>Must again send out a thank you to <a HREF=\"http:\/\/weepandsing.livejournal.com\/\">Lindsay<\/a> who sent me a Mutts comicbook. You shouldn&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;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&#8217;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&#8217;t get me to go out. So on Monday I popped up for a quick hello.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-2923\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2006\/060313_magnethe_th.jpg\" ALT=\"Magnethe\" TITLE=\"Magnethe\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And of course that made me happy. They always do.<\/p>\n<p>And then Moomincat came around. He was a little wet. It was raining outside. Just a little drizzle though. He seemed tired, didn&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>He did get up again though. And followed me around a little.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-2924\"><img WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=400 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2006\/060313_moomincat1_th.jpg\" ALT=\"moomincat\" TITLE=\"moomin cat\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Signs of my soda addiction. I always fall back.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s good at posing for the camera.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-2925\"><img WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=400 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2006\/060313_moomincat2_th.jpg\" ALT=\"moomincat\" TITLE=\"moomin cat\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And he sat down at our old computer. <\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-2926\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2006\/060313_moomincat3_th.jpg\" ALT=\"moomincat\" TITLE=\"moomin cat\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>He came by today too, but not through my window. I heard my mother in the living room going &#8220;get out, you&#8221;. 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&#8217;t be mad at me.<\/p>\n<p>So there you go. Now I must go rest before the big day. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night I dreamt that I was going mad. it was quite convincing.
