Fredagsmys

, , , ...

It’s weird how I think about blogging pretty much every day, but never get around to it. It’s tempting to say that I don’t have time for it, but that’s only partly true. It’s not like I don’t waste any time online … I should be blogging instead of playing FarmVille, for example. FarmVille is oddly addictive, though. I can’t for the life of me say what makes one stick to it, and I never thought that I would get caught when my sister sent me an invite as she needed more neighbours, but … I got hooked. I guess that it might be partly because my former addiction, FluffFriends, don’t work very well anymore … it’s too slow to be any fun at all, even though I love the cute critters there. Hm, but it’s not like FarmVille is without bugs. In fact, the whole of FaceBook drives me crazy right now, with everything that goes wrong all the time … not to mention the fact that the network at work really suck and kicks one out all the time. I realize that giving us Internet access for leisure isn’t a priority, but also the programs we use for work itself load and work extremely slowly and tend to bug … annoying, to say the least!

Today we have a bit of sunshine in Göteborg, but there sure hasn’t been a lot of that lately. They said on the news today that we’ve had 3,3 hours of sunshine in the whole of November … Is it any wonder that people feel tired and depressed? I really shouldn’t blog today, as that is what I feel, and considering my low amount of entries these days, it’s kind of sad if I write a negative one when my life in general is positive and I feel good most of the time. However, today I feel low. I can’t really put my finger on it, but the feeling hit me some time last night, and now it won’t let go. I just feel small and insignificant … and I am so tired. I hardly slept at all tonight, and when I did, I slept badly. I had a hard time falling asleep, as those dark feelings had taken a hold of me, and when I finally did, I dreamt that I was moving into a small, damp, lonely and cramped space that looked a lot like the room where I park my bike at home. A small, concrete room … and I had to try to squeeze some things in there … and I felt so utterly lonely. So I woke with that feeling, and my back was aching so much and I felt so uncomfortable both in flesh and mind that I couldn’t get back to sleep … Argh! I hate nights like this. They don’t come often anymore, though … thanks to my sweetheart. Him putting his arms around me in the morning, holding me tight and telling me that he wanted me to stay there with him instead of going to work made me feel a bit better, but … I still feel … I don’t know. Small.

There is a commercial whose jingle everyone sings around here, especially on Fridays … it talks about making Fridays cosy (“fredagsmys”) … but, seriously, why should we just be cosy and snuggle and enjoy ourselves on Fridays? A. and I decided against that, and have been talking about “onsdagsmys”, “torsdagsmys” etc. I suppose that noone will be surprised if I say that we belive in cuddling and trying to make the evening cosy every day, and not just on Fridays?! :smile: In general I think that people focus too much on the weekends. I mean, it’s nice to have two full days off, not having to get up early and all that … but it’s sad when people seem to live only for the weekends, making the other five days not really count … like they are insignificant and just a piece of road that you need to travel to get to your goal, while every day should be a goal in itself, right? It’s sad if we only two out of seven days a week, right? That would, after all, mean that we spend 71,5 % of our lives longing for the other 28,5%. Hm. This said, the commercial is for snacks, such as crisps … so you’re not supposed to be healthy while cuddling :wink: Me, I certainly prefer a nice dinner and then a cup of tea with cookies. What about you?

(And the Opera editing tools still don't work for me - what is up with this site?:frown:)

I am complete now that I found you

I’ve grown tired of trying to be useful now … it's to no use anyway. I tried to do some tidying, and the result was pretty much the usual one, which means that there is next to no difference at all. I tried to cook dinner, but it didn't turn out very tasty at all … and having to eat it alone did not make it better. Eating alone sucks … especially when the food is no good. But A. is visiting his parents tonight, so I had no choice but to eat alone. To not eat at all isn't exactly an option. I just hope that he doesn't come home too late, as I really miss his arms around me, and also it's nice to see a bit of him before going to bed, if you know what I mean? It's nice to do a bit more than just sleep together, even if that is nice enough.

He met my parents for the first time yesterday :smile: And I suppose that it went well … I never really thought that it wouldn't. It's not like my parents would have any reason to dislike him … and my parents are rather easy-going, so … But still, it's not like my parents have ever been in this situation before, so who could tell? Hihi. Like my sister said, I don't think there was any matter of them checking him out to see if he's okay … I think they figured that out already … if not by the fact that I am crazy about him, so by the fact that my sister approves of him :wink: And mom had cooked a delicious dinner, as always!

The whole weekend was very grey weatherwise, and we were rather lazy. Watched movies, snuggled, went to a birthday party for his niece (she turned seven), went for coffee and a short walk in the botanic garden … and not much more than that. As for the movie watching, on Friday night A. did most of it on his own (he watched “Poseidon”) as I fell asleep on the couch. I was very tired after a busy day at work and an early morning, and having a glass of wine at dinner didn't help :wink: They also showed “True lies” on TV, a movie that I enjoy a lot, but I was really too tired to stay up to watch it. We did watch a couple of movies that I actually saw too, “Rallybrudar” and “The mummy: The tomb of the dragon emperor” … It was perfect weather of that kind of activity … the sky was so grey and it never really grew light even during the day. Depressing really … true November weather … I hate this month! It's the worst of the year, I think. It's a good thing that I have someone who brightens it up for me.

My sister found the coolest t-shirt on Sweden Rock Shop today … another Cookie monster one. Unfortunately they only have it in men's sizes - so unfair! There was also a really, really cool one with the A-team, that I would've wanted to have … but I am way too small to be able to buy anything that is not sold in girl sizes. This said, I wonder what on Earth I should get A. for Christmas … and he's already been bugging me for a while about what I want … but I really don't know! I really wouldn't lie if I said that all I really want for Christmas is him … I don't really need anything else :smile: It might sound cheesy, but … it's true.

I'm listening to beautiful love songs here, so who can really blame me if I go all cheesy? (Even though I really don't the fact that we end up calling anything that is cute or romantic or something like that “cheesy”, it's kind of sad, no?) … “I am complete now that I found you” I hear Savage Garden singing … that is how I feel. And A. often tells me that I complete him, so … It's such a lovely feeling. I am so lucky to have found this beautiful, lovely guy to share my life!

PS. Would anyone care to tell me why the My Opera editing tools won't work anymore when I use Internet Explorer? I've never had any problems with it before, but now nothing happens when I click the buttons :frown: Is this a trick to force me to use Opera? Firefox worked a bit better than IE the other day when I tried it, but ... not perfectly either, as the codes kept ending up at the end of the entry, no matter where I wanted to place them ... *annoyed*
