Dare to be different and learn to be lonely

Okay, so I didn't get to put Brendon and Spencer in my pocket and feed them M&M's, but Zack did allow me to give them chocolate <3

I had an awesome day and it was well worth the long journey and missing out on the holiday at home. Thank you, Peggy, Isabel and Janina for letting me hang with you. Thank you, Panic! at the Disco for making this possibly the best Sinterklaas ever :)

If you want, you can read about my whole travelexperience in my photoblog;)

The work was supposed to be done in a week: the window in the attic was going to be replaced and asbestos would be removed. Since I didn't find my key in the mailbox as promised, I decided to take a look upstairs. It seems they removed part of the window frame and stuffed it with a bit of crumbled up paper. Which of course isn't waterproof, so there was water dripping on my carpet. Good job, guys. They also apparently used my attic as storage space. I hope to talk to the contractor on Monday. It's a good thing I emptied out the area and covered all my precious equipment...

On a happier note: only two more weeks until Sinterklaas-festivities! This morning the neighbourhood version of our St. Nick did his rounds together with his musical Petes:)

More good stuff: I already got a birthdaypresent! To comfort me after reading Thursday's sick and tired post rispacooper surprised me with Nick/Greg fic! It made me feel so much better and you should all go and read it and tell her how awesome she is: Truth And Dare

My throat still hurts and I have a serious case of the sniffles, which looks like it will grow into the barking cough over the next few days. But this afternoon I will let myself be pampered by Mom: I'm going over to her for dinner and tonight we are going to the Art house for 'Amazing Grace' with Ioan Gruffud. Mmmm.
