drowning out the voices in my head: Top Gear rerun on TV
Tags: real life goings on
So how are y'all doing? I feel like I've been living in a plastic bubble the past month - and I miss y'all guys like WHOA!
I have a couple of things going on at the moment - one being the ever on going job hunt. Just finishing up application for a couple of librarian jobs and I'm also sending out resumes and applications to various museums even if they aren't offiicially hirering at the moment.
I also got a call from the people who handle my unemployment check today, just to let me know that they've processed the applicaation I send in about the HR-class I won't be allowed to take after all due to misinformation from the JobCenter - it just... Yeah. I was nice to vent (in a non-Queen-T-like fashion) to someone who actually understood my frustration and I also found out why I hadn't gotten any money last month - it was a paperwork thing - so now that should all get taken care of. All in all I'm feeling rather good about the whole paying to get paid deal I've got going with them. (you can't get the 'large' unemployment check unless you've got an unemployment insureance). Unlike with the JobCenter where I felt just like another lazy unemployed number in the line I actually got called by my name - it's really such a TINY thing that can help you feel less of a lowlife.
What else? Oh yeah Boyfriend is out sick again. This time it's a fun stomach bug - same thing I had last week it seems, but whereas I bounced back in 24hours he's now on day 3 and he's getting a little sick of it.
Tonight will be the 3rd night where Princess I will go to bed without her bottle. The past two have gone remarkably well! I really thought we'd get Hell about it - because lets face it, she's got a temper that one and yeah she's never gone to bed without some kind of 'snack' in her life before, but so far... yeah she's just laying down and going to sleep after telling a small story to her stuffed animals. I'm kinda wondering WHEN the other shoe will drop on this one. Because really this is just entirely TOO smooth! I have a feeling it might be when Boyfriend starts to become the one who puts her to bed as well, because so far i've been the one to do it and thus it's been done the same way. I dunno - maybe I'm overthinking it.
Hey how's the weather with y'all? Here it's COLD! I can't remember the last time it was this cold for this long! Here in Aarhus we haven't even been as hard hit by the snow as further North - or heck even back home in Viborg, but we've still got some left, even if it's turning rather gray along the roads but outside in the yard it's still pretty and white as it's been since... well December LOL speaking of snow I'm finding it kinda epic that they are lacking in the snow department down there in Vancouver where they are gonna have the Olympics in a few days, whereas we're freezing our asses off and are running out of road salt AND money on the city budgets to pay to have the roads cleared. No seriously - it's the kind of thing that I get a good giggle about.
So now i'm gonna go make myself some coffee - COFFEEEEEEEEEE - and I'm also craving a grilled cheese sandwich (no seriously if I didn't know 100% for sure better I'd think I was pregnant again!) so I'm gonna make me one of those as well and do some laundry before I go pick up Her Highness in 2 hours time. Think tonight I'm finally gonna do my nails as well - I think I need some girly-time-out-time

We're on night two of mission 'princess I going to bed without her bottle' and unlike last night where we had 2 hours of crying but tonight....
brushed her teeth
went to her room
put away the last of her toys
read a bedtime story
sung her a lullaby
tucked her in
turned off the light
said 'good night love see you in the morning'
walked out the room
closed the door
sat down in couch and waited for all hell to break loose and
so far NADA!
I know I'm totally jinxing myself, but really after last night I expected she'd be PISSED!
OH and my plan for the night - writing application for an open spot as a librarian...

Tags: geek boy, geek girl, star wars
so Boyfriend is out at some work related social event (he earned that privelege by taking care of me earlier this week when I was hit by the nastiest stomach bug in history which may or may not have been food poisoning)
which means I'm home alone on a Friday night, in my jammie bottoms (WITH underwear thank you very much, I'm not THAT crazy) and my 'Joss Whedon is my master now' tee AND I'm actually watching 'The Empire Strikes Back' on tv.... WHAT?
Yeah I know... Also yeah much as it pains me becaues I've always thought that Luke Skywalker is rather annoying, but yeah My Boy is totally Luke Skywalker-like.
Man if I wasn't so frigging tired (Her Highness spend the best part of last night coughing so hard she made herself vomit - i really hope the last part of this cold passes QUICKLY because this is getting old!) I would totally get up from the couch and dig out 'Serenity' from the drawer and put that on instead because yeah that one I actually LOVE!

So I just came back from the JobCenter and low and behold... It was a big fat NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Basicly I got told to sit around for 13 weeks (from jan 6th) where I just apply to jobs and wait for them to contact me to create a plan for my jobhunt after the first 13 weeks.
Now if I'd been 30, without and any kind of education and unwilling to show any kind of initiative THEN I would be handed the world on a silver platter.
HOW DOES THAT MAKE ANY FRIGGING SENSE?
So now I'm drowning my sorrows in my coffee cup.
In happier news I got an email this morning from one of the museums i applied to last week, and though they don't have an opening right now they will keep me in mind for when they do.So that's something atleast I guess. Also my visit to the gym today was really good! I wore the short tights that I haven't been willing to wear in over a year and actually got checked out!

Well that's just GREAT!
a week ago I was called to the MOST generic meeting EVER for people between the age of 25 and 30 who's unimployed and was told about classes that I could take for free in HR and Coaching, thus helping me get a job quicker hopefully
So ofcourse I jumped at that and applied to one of those
cut to today where I'm told that nope I'm not allowed to take those classes because I've been through HIGHER EDUCATION!
WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!?!? So now I'm being punished for having been fast at getting my MA? Is that it?
I think I actually feel the steam coming out of my ears over this - so tomorrow i have the joy of going to the jobcenter and try and talk one of those Donuts who informed me wrongly in the first place to foot the bill so that I can take the classes after all.
Oh the joys of unimployment!

Last night I once again found out just how much I'll go through to get George - this time around it was a blizzard AND having only slept 3-4 hours the night before due to Her Highness having one of those nights...
Anyhow I still found myself at the cinema at 9.30 ready for this;

And yeah where last time the George-movie was one of those really WEIRD ones of those this one is an wonderfully easy to digest rom-com AND a really GOOD one of those too!
Know I loves me some serious!George, and Goofball!George is also very much a win for me, but yeah RomCom!George is just so CUTE! No seriously one of my fave George films is STILL 'One Fine Day' so yeah!
Now I don't want to give away the plottwist because yeah I don't want to spoil anyone who'd want to go see - I'm just gonna say i was uhhh-ing and awww-ing in my seat and I really really hope that I was able to keep it on the inside because yeah I had people sitting right next to me LOL





OH and just a few tiny details about 'Up in The Air' well for one thing. barefoot!George a couple of scenes... GUH Then there are a few times during the film where he packs a suitcase with such skill that me being a pack-geek (no really I can't pack SO much stuff into tiny bags!) I got kinda turned on and last but not least; wearing a suit or (Hollywood)nekkid.... George is just; Mr Sex on Legs!

Yeah this will really only be of interest for G and myself...
So G and I had planned to take the Boyfriends to Le Mans with us this summer, but real life has gotten in the way so that plan have been nixed for 2010 - doesn't mean however I won't be following the preparations for Le Mans (or New!Denmark as G and I have named it LOL 25.000 danes going there every year is the reason for that)
Today I got an email from K-rejser, (car race travel agency owned by Tom Kristensen's brother - ( TK being the dude in the icon) with the latest news from Team!Audi about who's gonna be in the cars and the HAPPY news I got from that was the fact that once again Tom will be teaming up with Dindo and McNish! that's just AWESOME! Those 3 are just amazing and balance each other out perfectly!
Hmmm if it wasn't for the fact that tonight is a VERY important Handball night (what? it's january thus making it men's handball championship month and YUM Michael V. Knudsen is as YUMMY as ever!) i would TOTALLY be watching "Truth in 24" tonight to get a Le Mans fix. (how serious as I about the whole handball thing? well 'Up in Air' opens tonight and i'm NOT going tonight because we're playing Croatia that's how invested I am!)

I think the gym hated me this morning....
Dropped off Her Highness at DayCare at 8.45am-ish as per usual, then went home to get my gym bag and then across the street for the gym.
Now the last time I'd gone I'd felt really good about it, sure some of it hurt like a sonnovabitch because it's supposed to but today.... Yeah I pretty much hated every single second of it.
Oh well hopefully it will be better next time. But hey atleast it's kinda paying off since my stomach is already looking slimmer and less pot-belly-ish already so there's a motivation to keep going.
and on a fun note *sarcasme* I've somehow managed to contact myself a fun little blatter infection. JOY! So as of yesterday I've been popping 2 pills 3 times a day (on top of the 3 regular pills I already take every day for my PCOS, now if only it was the fun kind of pills then I could feel spectaculacular!) for it to hopefully clear up soon. Fun right?

GUH! It's always nice with a blast from the past if you ask me - especially when said blast looks like this;

Now I'm not much of a Gun!porn person, because yeah they kinda scare me, but when the RIGHT man is holding a gun then yeah even I get all tingly....
Oh yeah that's right! 3+ is randomly showing "From Dusk Till Dawn" tonight (come on it's a total classic!) and yeah I do actually have the DVD (duh!) but I'm still watching it commercials and all because yeah y'all know... Wonder if I can stay awake for SPN at 1am too I mean it's "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and R I know how you feel about nu!Ruby but yeah it's SERA and nekkid Sammy! and GUH!
fun fact about "From Dusk Till Dawn"? My brother and I once tried to count the 'fuck's.... and it only took us about 20 mins to loose count LOVE IT! Also love the fact that my brother will STILL to this day know what I'm talking about if I stretch out my arms and declared; "This is MY kind of place!"

OH and does somebody have the song that starts the episode called 'The Song Remains The Same' (or atleast I think that's the title anyway it's the first ep where Jensen shows up) because yeah it's a pretty song and yeah Joey/Dawson is really kinda BLAH but yeah I like the song ok?

I'm sick - no like really sick as in snot and sore throat and what makes it even worse is that Princess I has been hit by said bug as well.
So much so that Boyfriend actually stayed home today to take care of us and I actually caved and called my Mommy to talk her into coming down here tomorrow. Yep that's right I'm a few days shy of my 27th birthday and I want my Mommy!
EDIT: My Mom really is the best! first she agreed to come babysit AND then when she showed up this morning she ALSO had along with her the makings for my favourite meatloaf and thus stayed to cook us all dinners and watch the Handball match afterwards. I'm calling BEST MOM EVER!

- You wanna know the true-true reason why it took Denny so long to show up when Izzie was trying to will him out to figure out where the tumore was in "What a Difference a Day Makes"? Well it turns out that he forgot that he was supposed to be playing dead Denny style and instead thought he was playing dead Poppa W style and thus stuck around in the ER with Young!Mary.... What? Don't tell me y'all don't play mixy-verses too because that's the only way I can keep from throwing things at my TV OR once again hurt myself by rolling my eyes so hard when I see Denny. But I guess that's what I get for being rewatch girl with SO many reruns making their way around my TV

that's right y'all I have joined a gym! Yep I actually followed through on my plan and today I had my first appointment with an instructor to get on with it.
Right now I'm feeling the after effect, it's a slight buzz I gotta tell you. Pretty sure I'm gonna be feeling it in the morning too.
I'm actually also thinking about picking up swimming again because I kinda miss that.
