Oh gawd. I have done so much laundry today it ain't even funny. We can FINALLY access our laundry-room now. It just took them two bloody months to finish renovating it. :-P It was supposed to only take one month. I R not amused. But now my epic pile off laundry from doom is done. Thank gawd. Tomorrow I'll grab the iron and watch the Chess-DVD I borrowed from
spicehobbit and do some serious ironing as well. And digg out those advent candle holders, stars and what not. It is that time off year again. ;-)
demon_kyo really like meme's, don't she? ;-) Well, she had another fun one in her LJ the other day, and I decided to join in. Your free to do that as well, if you feel like it. :-)
Words meme- Ask and I will give you five words that remind me of you.
- Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.
Well, she gave me these words:
SwedenMy country. My home. :-) I do like visiting other countries, but with the words off Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, there is no place like home. :-) I like our long, long colourful history (even if it does have some really, really dark spots during WWII...). I like our varying nature from the warm south with long summers and short winters to the cold north with the really short summers and long winters (and the sun never raising during winter or setting during the summer). I like the farm-land. I like the woods. I like the cities. :-) I like the fact that people from other countries think we are a cold and distanced people when in fact we are just a little reserved. ;-) Don't be afraid to start talking to a swede! Of course there are things I don't like about Sweden to. Like the
Jante Law... Oh, gawd do I hate that one. But overall, the good outweighs the bad. :-)
Peting73My one true love. :-) Yeah, that sounds kinda cliche, don't it? But it is true. We were friends quite some time before it became us. We have both been involved in the Student Union Pub and the Student Union Politics here at the University in town. First time I meet him, he actually scared me. When he got his student-overall on, he's got quite the dominating presence... Anyway, I soon found out he was a very nice guy underneath that and together with Kiltfan they were the two to arrange the best parties and dinners at the Student Union Pub. Also, to figure out the more kinky pop quizzes.... *cough* The gang of Sexmasters and Ex-Sexmasters and friends off the same that formed around them was one hell off a group of people and we had a lot off fun together and helped each other with school-stuff. :-) So, we were friends for quite some time. One evening
peting73 and his friend Cola had decided to drink them selfs into a stupor or close to it. (They are both quite big men that could take there alcohol, so... yeah.) Lets just say they were both INSANELY wasted.
peting73 always walk home after a night off drinking (30min walk). But this night he was so drunk he didn't want to. He knew I lived close by, so he started nagging me about that he wanted to sleep in my bed (since I was almost a neighbor to the Student Union Pub). X-D Me, I was going oh hell no the entire evening. So, the pub closed down, some off us helped the staff clean up since well.... if you have once worked behind the bar in the Student Union Pub you know it is hell to clean the place. Afterwards we all hung out outside talking. And when I was about to leave,
peting73 grabbed me, pushed me up against the wall, gave me one of those kisses that you feel all over your body and told me he wanted to sleep in my bed.... o.O Well. When I had gathered my wits, I told him no, since... well, he was crazy drunk. Cola on the other looked like a cat with the biggest rat in town. I had never seen him so pleased (and haven't since). It ended up with
peting73 walking/staggering home, hitting his nose on a table so badly he got a scar (still there), me walking home being crazy horny, and Cola the day after working his ass off over ICQ to get me to visit
peting73 to watch a movie (he had apparently been a little interested in me before this and told Cola so...). It worked. And the rest as they say, is history... ;-) Now I can't see my life without him. :-)
CatsSame thing as with
peting73 actually. I can't live without them. :-) I have lived with cats my entire life. No wait. Now I am lying. From the age off six and then there were four or five years when I lived on my own here in town that I didn't have cats. But the rest off my life, yeah. I have lived with cats. Cats are just awesome. They can be ditzy idiotic and funny. And at the same time they can be graceful, majestic and gorgeous. :-) They have a will off there own, oh hell yes. But dammit, they all have such a personality. So far I have lived with five cats. 3 off them are dead, Pyret, Ida and Pelle. The current black beauties I live with are Verdandi and Skuld. :-) All off them different. All off them wonderful. All off them have put a mark on my life. And all off them have snatched a piece off my heart. Gladly
peting73 is a cat-lover to (he has grown up with both cats and a dog), so it wasn't hard to talk him into the fact we needed cats once I moved in. ;-) My mom is a crazy cat lady as well, as is
peting73s mom. I think I'll be living with cats my entire life. I can't see it any other way. :-)
LibraryMy sanctuary and, hopefully, future work-place. ;-) When I was in school, I was badly bullied. But there was one place where I could be at peace. The library. :-) And I befriended a really awesome librarian there that I really really liked. She was not like the other librarians at said library. Crazy stockings, fun glasses and wild hair and wild personality. :-) So, when I didn't make it to the Police Academy (can't have glasses as a police officer can you?) I decided to become a librarian instead. :-) I now have the education, but not the job. Yet. ;-) I am working on it.
LARPingAh. Yes. ;-) I blame
kaijn. No seriously. This is his fault. As well. *laugh* When I moved here to this city, I didn't know a soul. But I got to know
kaijn during those first weeks off school. We both got involved with the Student Union Pub. He told me about LARPing, since he was doing that in his home-town and also told me he knew a couple off LARPers in this city... Me, I had always been curious about LARPing, but in my tiny home town there was nothing like it (that I knew off).
kaijn then promptly talked me into going to try it. I did. I was hooked after the first night. *laugh* I have now been involved with this vampire-LARP since 2001. The last five years or so I have been in the board to. :-) The constant secretary. *laugh* I doubt I'll stop doing this. It just to much fun, and I have gotten so many, many good friends. No one cares if your young or old. The youngest girl is 16 and the oldest one is me and
peting73 (yes, I dragged him into it to...) with our 30+ years. :-)
