Good evening everyone,
Today is real slumberness, all rain and greyness outside.
*
This afternoon was for annoying fellow clients at de Boed for winning the Bingo quiz all the time. We play bingo with quiz elements at de Boed every two weeks on Tuesday, and other weeks we sing and do music quiz. It's really fun playing games on Tuesday and stick them all their eyes out with my basic common intelligence. But it's enough to leave them far behind, and win prices. I often pick chocolate for a price.
Next week is an open office day for public at de Boed, and I'm going to sing. I'm going to sing a few songs for the audience. They think my voice is really good for singing. And They have the perfect sound boxes and microphones for it. It's something to feel a bit nervous about, but also to look out for. A performance in public. But I think it will work out well, and singing is real fun. I think people should sing more often. To empty their heart and their mind. Sing your heart out! And my mom will come to the open office day, so she will see me singing. It's really cool.
'The temptation, the lust, the attraction- It sounds like you're really into it for the 'Real Thing.' with that man.' You know, that ever lasting real thing where it's just about physicall attraction, you don't really talk, and nothing else matters? Perfect for a sane marriage! Well, I don't think so. Just lust and the physicall can be nice, but it's not reliable. No matter what Mustang he actually is. He is just 'gazing, gazing, gazing.' And then it probably fades. That would be healthy. Not following the butterflies all head over heels. That would be dumb. Sometimes I think about a fresh box off strawberries and a valentine's card if I would know where, who and how. Even a strict vegan man would appreciate those as romantic. But I don't even know that. If he's vegan, and where those strawberries are supposed to go, and the receptionist to his job would hold them behind to eat them herself. 'Thank you, dear. That is utmost sweet. I'll make sure he gets them...' *Omnomnomnomnom.* And honest, I should not see a man who could be a young grandpa as a mustang. That's unhealthy. And really, a box off fresh strawberries in February? It's not easy to have lost my mind in 2023 over the dragonslayer. Edo the dragonslayer, real cute mustang and the best off the best. But a waste off my time.
Yesterday I said I think it will be peace in 2028, now I'm doubting if it's 2026 again. It's either one off those. It's in the short term, but it's not easy. I hope you can get by. Got your bills paid, and food on the table. I hope most off you can cook a meal. It's important these days to know how to cook the basics. It's difficult. This year won't be for relief. Not because it's what I want, but because I got insights about that. It's very cruel, but people have to take it. It will become all better in the short term. But it's gritting our teeth for now. We can better be brave with it. I don't know how stupid I am if I'm not right. I also think it's a bit stupid telling the Rolling Stones will get a number one hit with Angie again, and it will become the massive number one hit off this era. But it also comes from an insight. Yes, the Stones will be numer one again. If you wish to listen to it for cheap, go after it today. Tomorrow you will pay the head price for their albums.
It's all dark and hailing outside. It's enough to wish to lay in bed. It will be weeks and weeks off winter in the Netherlands, with little to do. And it's forecasted to become real winter weather. I became fan off Wham's Club Tropicana, due to a New Year's Eve show on Dutch TV where it was performed really well. It's always fun to discover a good oldie. And re-discover, if they got on TV really impressive. Those 80's hits really lend themselves well for that, still. To tell you a secret: A lot off ladies in their 60's here still got a crush on George Michael, despite him being gay and death. In their youth, he was really their stud. I think they never got over with it deep inside. And yes, their music picks me up this year, like A-ha's Take on Me did so a few years ago. A good oldie from the 80's or 70's always does it with me. It does so ever since I was 16. It's been my parent's music and it's with me, either. My parents spend whole days listening to it. And I loved it better than my own youth's hits. What is mature youth to listen to in 40 years when music nowadays stays this bad? We don't have much idols or big sensations ourselves. We're not leaving them anything good this way. It's not something to be proud off. I just hope they understand how deep this crisis was.
Something good to end this weblog with, before I make heads burst:
Maybe I will make heart-shaped potato cake, with chocolate chips and orange for de Boed's valentine's day. With potato mash. Something from a cookbook from the potato company, except that it's in an ordinairy mold in their receipe, I'm going to try a heart. I think mister Ed does not like the idea off potato cake, but I'm going to pretend I baked it for him. It's with real sugar, so it's supposed to become sweet and tasty. It's just that I'm about to mash potatoes for it. Instead off buying expensive potatoes for it, like the receipe book intends. Cute mustangs might think me weird. De Boed loves a new try out for a baking with their valentine's coffee. I'm going to try to make it for this year's valentine's day.
Allright, that's about it for now-
Thank you for reading.
