Holy Fuck

S was wrong! She was over the moon about me actually posting something, but then said that she`ll now see that Boombox post for the next few months. Well I`m proving her wrong.  There is something else.. My mum really wants the pictures I took at the naming party and I looked for my memory stick for ages without finding it, and along the way I found our old keyboard (not wireless) and our old wireless mouse.. I wanted to test them out on the Tab. WTF and holy crap - they both work! This is so awesome! I`m actually typing with this old keyboard at this very moment! Obviously the mouse and the keyboard don`t work at the same time, but there is a simple solution - adapter with two usb ports.

I had a job interview today. I`m not leaving my current job, I`m just looking to get some more work for the winter months when it`s really quiet. I really hope I get this job, because for One
- I would have something else to do than sit at home doing nothing AND get paid for it
And Two
- I would be surrounded by BEAUTIFUL things all day long AND get paid for it

It wasn`t as busy today as it was yesterday.. There`s this competition going on and yesterday we won it. I don`t think anyone won today.. But there is always tomorrow. We didn`t clean today. We should really do it tomorrow, when there is still 3 of us working - less to do for one person and also faster clean up.

I told S, I would post about the naming party, but this became about something else entirely. I shall post twice today. The decision has been made.

PS. The picture is me playing with this new app I found - Cartoon Camera.

Boombox

I'm addicted to this song by Lonely Island. Every since I heard it, I've listened to it like every day. Lonely Island is all together one of my favorite bands. I know what you're thinking, 'this post will be about some fucking bands' - but it's not. I just don't know what I'm going to blog about yet, and thought this kind of boring stuff would spark some inspiration..

                                           
                                              Everyone was wearing fingerless gloves..

I'm at work right now. There's been some people in, but not enough to actually make it busy at any point, and now I'm bored coz there's no people what so ever. How can a Saturday afternoon be this slow?

The answer is - Venetsialaiset a.k.a End of Cabin Season celebration. There's a lot of people outside, especially at the Market Square for some kind of kids thing. Later on there'll be stuff for adults, like pole dancing (?) and fireworks maybe. I haven't checked it out or anything, so don't really know what's happening tonight but I know there is music and drinking. That's all you really need to know right? And being a true Finnish drunk, I'll be celebrating the End of Cabin Season at our cabin - with music and drinking. Although now there is a baby, and every time I think I'm going to get absolutely drunk out of my mind, I just end up holding the baby all night. Hmm. Why would today be any different?



Every day in work I'm amazed at how stupid people can be. It's not a nice thing to say, but I don't understand why people think we can make contracts and what not without any ID. The customers are always surprised when you tell them you need to see some ID - 'don't you believe me when I tell you who I am and give you my social security number?'. Well, no. I could walk into any shop and buy shit with my sisters social security number if it was that easy. Idiots.

I already ate. I've done some work and cleaned a little. I told S I was bored, and she told me to blog.. An amazing idea - but I'm nearly done now. Shit.



The weather was nice for a few hours today.. Actually it has been good all day - sunshine and lollipops. And now? - Raindrops and fuckedy fucks. I was really annoyed about being in work instead of being in the country, but now I'm not so sure.. It really looks like it'll rain like a motherfucker in a little while. Fuck this shit.



I'll go do something useful for a little while, but if I run out of things to do, I'll try and come up with something else I could blog about.. Like this shit was interesting. Haha.

Blogs

It was a slow day in work, so I read blogs between doing actual work. There's an equal amount of interesting and non-interesting ones, but they all had one thing in common.. The person writing the blog, updated it every few days if not every day. Now I've been a complete a-hole for being awol.

So now I'm actually BWOP - Blogging WithOut Purpose. I have literally nothing on my mind right now.

I've got to do some laundry. And some exercise would be good. Also, need to think about curling my hair the old fashioned way - with tissue paper. It's the only way my hair will stay curly. But that would mean waking up earlier. Hmm. Shit. But I have to dye my hair. And help Emma. And eat. Hmm. Nice.

I've been using twitter again. I only set the account up to follow some celebs and shit but I never really used it. Now I've actually got more familiar with the whole concept and it's great. Mostly it's the perfect source for funny shit you want to laugh at. I haven't come across any of those funny celeb fights though.. Hmm. Maybe I should follow some drama queens. Or maybe not.

Need to do some laundry now, and probably go help emma before my food is ready. Then, HAIR!

Long time coming

It's embarrassing how long it's been since my last post. A lot has happened. I've had more than enough time to post an update almost every day, but never did. That must really suck. Especially for S and E, who check it constantly and always get disappointed. By gones.

S had a baby. It is the cutest baby I've ever seen in my life. There is nothing as adorable and lovable as her, J. Officially she's getting "named" on Friday, and there'll be a party to go to. I'm working but I'll leave early to be there for S and J. I'll have the perfect opportunity to use my camera again. This same shit that is happening with the blog, is also happening with the camera - I have all the time in the world to use it, but just lazy out and don't. I'll blog more about the baby this weekend, when I have pretty pictures to post.

B turned 30 this month. We planned this big day for him with loads to do. He had an amazing time and it was so cool - but no pictures. Seriously! Fucking idiot. There could be such great photos of everyone who came and everything we did. Fuck. He'll never turn 30 again. Shit. I'll blog more about that some other day.

I've got so many ideas and things I want to blog about but then never do, which then means that when I haven't blogged for a while, there's even more stuff lined up. Fuckedy fuck.

We went to Kilta with E on Monday. It was just like the old days! It was so amazing just to sit down and have an old-fashioned talk - no phones, no computers. We should definitely make it into a thing. Like Tuesday Talks or something. We used to sit down for a talk at this coffee shop, but now we're older and really should sit down somewhere you can buy alcohol from - if we feel like it.

I've been waiting for Hell's Kitchen and Masterchef to come back on, and today FINALLY they're on! Just about finished with Masterchef now. I really only watch these programs because of Gordon Ramsay. Just kidding. But he really makes these programs amazing, and I think I'm on the brink of joining numerous Gordon Ramsay Fan Pages or something. I'm just so in love with his temper. OK, enough of this lovefest.

Last night we went to my parents house for like an hour or so. We brought our two lovely cats with us. We decided to leave the kitten at my parents, so they could enjoy her company for a while longer. All was well and we went to bed at around 00.30. Slept like babies until 3 - then the crying started. She cried and cried and cried and cried. I seriously wanted to kill her. Finally after three hours, I went to get Emi. Then B left for work and I slept for two hours. I can't really blame her, we took her baby away and she's a cat, so can't understand why or where her baby has gone. Taking all that in count - I still loved Miisu a little less for a second this morning, when she went to sleep on the soft carpet and I got ready for work. But it's all good now.

After only sleeping for a few hours last night, I'm really looking forward to falling back on my bed and not getting up for at least 8 hours. Good night!

Secret Diary of a Call Girl

I've nearly watched every episode. Why is it, that every program I fall in love with, ends up only having 3 seasons? And then some shitty soap like Bold and the Beautiful, last for 25 years or something.. That's like a million seasons! Such bullshit. Thankfully I've missed so many episodes of Medium, that I have to watch every episode of every season to follow the story. Fantastic. That'll give me about a years worth of episodes. Holy crap.

Work was a bit slow today. It was busy in the morning, but after that - only individual drop-ins. But that made it possible for me to do some cleaning. Did the hoovering and washed the floors. I also dusted. I'm gonna clean the backroom tomorrow - if it's slow I mean.

After work, we went to the shop and bought some food. We decided to do 10 weeks of diet and exercise, so today it was diet and yesterday exercise. Hahaha. I had every intention of do exercise today as well, but after food I started watching Secret Diary of a Call Girl, and only just finished. Now I'm watching House on TV, while Emi suckles and Miisu sleeps. B is taking a shower and then it's time for sleep. I'll try and do something interesting tomorrow, or at least think of something interesting to write about. Good night.

Plans.

I've got a million and one plans for what I want to do this year. Half of it has already been lost, and I'm not about to waste the rest of it. Along with the plans, there are also things I want to learn and change - can't forget about those things either. So there is going to be a lot to try and fit in these months remaning, but I'll do my best.

Holiday in England
-It's not your average holiday, or a very popular holiday destination (where we're going at least), but we've been planning for this for over a year now. Or maybe since the day we landed in Finland. I guess it was more like; Imagine when we've been living in Finland for a year or so, and come back to England for a holiday. Well, it's happening now. No, not now as in this moment or this month, but soon.. Very soon. I've planned as far as how to get there, and to our final destination, but I haven't planned anything else. I still need to get my shit together as far as planning some activities for us to do there.. Hmm.

Losing some weight
-There has been a lot of talk and not so much action from my part in trying to reach this particular goal. I don't know what it is about this one.. How can it be this hard to stick to one way, and not leave the trail of getting skinny? Today I will start. At least the exercise. And give up everything fattening. So crisps, candy, pop etc. I will at least try my best to leave most of it out of my diet..

Keeping the house clean
-This is something I struggle with. B is such a clean freak, and would prefer a model house (you know, one of those models of houses, that don't have any stuff in them) or a house that is always clean (no clutter). But since we do work and have a social life, we can't spend every moment cleaning. And we can't afford a cleaning lady.. I have decided to help B out, and do my part. That means, doing the dishes and hoover and put away all the stuff I take out etc. I've been doing this for a few weeks now, and it's going great. I still have those days when I really can't be asked, but those days have gone from 80% to about 20% of the time. Need to just keep it up.

Been in work today. Had a nice sale in the morning and also sold quite a lot of expensive stuff, but all the people vanished in the late afternoon - the last 3  hours of work.. murder. It was so quiet, I literally thought I'd either die of boredom or fall into a coma. Luckily, neither of those happened, and I made it through the day. I got some food - which is nearly ready - and after dinner, I will do some exercise. Not straight after. Maybe watch some Secret Diary of a Call Girl first. I think that's the name of the show. I just started watching it, so couldn't be sure..

Fucking Virus

I've been quite busy lately - Friday and Saturday at work and sick since Friday. I had nothing wrong with me Thursday going to bed, and woke up with a very sore throat Friday morning. I worked for 8 hours on Friday and 13 on Saturday. Sunday we went to the doctors, drove to Kärkkäinen and went to the movies with E and S, to watch Snow White and the Huntsman. The sore throat stilled bugged me, and today I found out there is a viral infection in there. Fucking viral infection. That basically means - no meds, no help. Just have to wait it out. The doctor offered sick leave, but this wont get any better whether I'm at home or at work. Fucking virus.

We bought some stuff from Kärkkäinen.. Not a lot. There wasn't a lot we wanted or needed, so we just got stuff we thought we might need one day. The one thing I wanted was the usb/sd adapter for the tab, and we got that. The salesperson was the nicest ever! I don't remember the last time someone was that helpful for the only purpose of being helpful. Thank you Kärkkäinen, and whoever that guy was.

Miisu has been ill. We are not quite sure what was/is wrong with her.. She wouldn't eat, didn't go to the toilet, lost a lot of weight.. We gave her love and affection, as well as Reiki and some meds, and she seems to be getting better now. We think she might still be a little sick though, because she tries so hard to keep Emi away from her. Obviously she lets Emi near every now and then, and even let her suckle, but now she is staying away from her most of the time.

Hopefully she gets better and they go back to loving each other. I also hope this virus moves on to someone else (once more - pass it along), that would make Saturdays 12 hour shift much more fun :) Now it's time for House to put me asleep. Not that it's a boring program - I love love love house- but I've seen all the episodes, and will probably fall asleep because of the tablet I took.

Anyway, good night and have a prosperous Wednesday!
