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.

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 ^^

Heh. Sounds like my family. XD

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!

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.
