Come out, come out wherever you are

[beelikej]

Well, I've been a very good girl this weekend (due to my very well planned day off today, I still consider this Monday part of The Weekend;). Granted, I didn't complete all the tasks on my to-do-list, but I've tackled the most important issues, so I'm pretty pleased at the moment:)

Yesterday I spent all day at my moms, who had invited a lot of family to celebrate her birthday, but the people she really wanted to come cancelled on her, bastards! So it was just the brothers plus one girlfriend (the other one is in Australia atm, a valid excuse;) and the grandparents, (my dad's parents, so they are my moms ex-inlaws). Before they showed up it was quite awesome to be with the family-unit again, there was a lot of rude and dirty talking. Once the religious couple showed, we had to tone that down a bit, but we still had plenty of opportunity for snickering (what can I say, we are very fond of the double -and single- entendres;). Don't get me wrong, I think the grandparents are very nice to visit my mom (no matter they only do it for the reward they're expecting to get from some higher power) but the conversation is limited to rather boring subjects (plus you get to hear most stories more than once, since they both tend to forget stuff they already told you). Still, at least they showed up;) And even though my mom was really bummed her sister and mom "couldn't" make it, she was really pleased to have all her kids around. Here are some pictures. Brother J. experimented with his old fashioned camera, as soon as he develops and scans those pictures, you'll get a link to those;)



Today I finally decided on another insurance after my current one sent me one letter too many with changes concerning my policy, their policy or name and rules. Seriously, people: you can only fuck me over this much before I say screw you. It may take more than ten years before I finally find the time to do it, but a two finger-salute to you. HA! I bravely faced all the hurdles and applied online for all the policies I need. Go me. I also did the dishes. *takes a bow*


WOW This evening I noticed I was friended by some people I've never spoken too. Well, at least I don't think I've talked to you before: hello! *waves* Now, if you've already spent some time here, you will have learned I'm not really a people person. So if I friend someone it is a pretty big deal. I only put someone on my flist if I intend to actually read the journal and comment on it. Maybe you friended me by accident or you're still trying to find the courage to leave a message, that's why I don't specifically name you here. But I really would like to know why you put my journal on your flist. Not because I worry about being stalked, but I'm seriously curious why you would have an interest in me. So: tell me, please! "Old" friends are of course welcome to share their feelings as well.

I have a feeling I know who just friended you. I just checked your info to see your list of friends, and my suspicions were right: you have probably been friended by the same person as just added me to his/her flist without ever talking to me.

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I noticed I wasn't the only one newly friended, so I guess I'm not that special:) And I don't mind, but it made me extremely curious;)

[thejazzter.livejournal.com]

Well, I added you because you seemed like a really nice person (even though you're not a people person) and because we both like CSI so much ^^
And since it's a big deal if you add someone, I've gotta say I feel flattered because you added me ^^

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Hey, everyone who's a friend of Nick and Greg is a friend of mine;) The feeling of being flattered is mutual, by the way:)

[thejazzter.livejournal.com]

Aww, that's really nice to hear <333

[sillie]

what can I say, we are very fond of the double -and single- entendres;)

Heh. Sounds like my family. XD

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

It's great, isn't it? Brother Jaap is the best at it though, it's almost a good thing he's not always there to complete the group. We could injure ourselves laughing so hard;)

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Heh, your family sounds like mine, too. And we have no religious family members to tone us down ;). Just once, I'd like to have a family dinner that doesn't involve sex talk *facepalm*. And if I say that, it must be scary ;).

Love the pictures! And oo, I'm very jealous of that old-fashioned camera!

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

That does sound a bit intimidating, 'cause I know how dirty your mind is;)

I love having both brothers together, in combination with the mother and yours truely, it's always a laugh:)

Brother J does spend a lot of money on his equipment, but it's well worth it. Seeing him grow from the aweful pictures he took while he was traveling with his big sister years ago to the artful shots he's making now, is a bit overwhelming.

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Yep, there's been more than one horrible mindfuck moment *shudder*.

And wow, those are gorgeous. I love the black and white one by the shop window!

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Aren't they just totally artsyfartsy? I'm tempted to show you the pictures he used to make, so you can see the progress, but since the old photo's are mostly fucked up shots of meeeee, I've decided not to look back;)

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Oh dude; now you have to show me those!

Do eeeeet!

hallo, maybe i'm the culprit mentioned in dagdrommer's post. i think we did used to chat before, on other lists ... forgive me, i'm just trying to add folks that i remember from wmtdb. you might remember me as alex morgan.

i'm not meaning to stalk, so if it came off that way, i apologize.

best,

a.j.

Hey hi, I think you might be *g*. You were not the only new friend I didn't recognize - apparently I'm popular and didn't even know it! I remember your name and I feel honoured you even remember me, especially since I haven't been in The Desert in ages (bad fangirl).
But even if you only want to lurk, you're welcome to hang here, don't worry about the stalking bit, I really didn't mind. I read in your journal we have some things in common and I noticed you also friended Silly and Dagdrommer, so I figured you were good people;)

Feel free to come back anytime! I liked the rants in your journal, so I do see potential mutual friending possibilities, if you want;)

[wildecountry.livejournal.com]

hee. thanks. i kinda panicked and took off the friend thing. but mebbe i'll put it back. yes, i'm weird.

apparently popular! that's always fun. and i'm still hooked on The Love, so we'll always have that in common. :))

hugs and n/g lurv to ya,
a.j.

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Ahw, don't be scared, I'm sometimes a little harsh, but I mean well;)

I will never give up on Nick & Greg. NEVER!

Back at ya, babe!
