It’s almost like I’m living in “Tom Traubert’s Blues”. Okay, maybe not, but – everything’s broken. But I believe there’s still an improvement compared to 2006. My things apparently still breaks down, but not as hard as earlier: my portable computer is once more going in for repair (don’t ever buy computers named “Vega” – they suck!). But this time it almost work some of the time (not like last time, when all it could do was making a funny noise while trying to get all the stuff inside to communicate with each other).
This morning I found my mobile phone lying dead! My phone/sms/camera/alarm clock/calendar gizmo had turned into a cold piece of dead electronics during the night. Sniff. But it’s not 2006 anymore, so there might still be hope: it may just be the battery that won’t feed the phone anymore. Connected to a power cord I was able to bring it back to life – not as mobile, having to stay close to the electrical socket – but still.

A fantastic blog with a simple concept: a Dutchman “running away from different Places” in Holland:
Running from Camera
In his own words: “The rules are simple: I put the self-timer on 2 seconds, push the button and try to get as far from the camera as I can”
I must admit: I love the idea! 🙂

When this weekend is over (and it soon is) I can look forward to a 12 day workweek.
Plus there are still a billion years till August and my trip to China.
Also an internet purchase has gone wrong, so I haven’t got the damn ting, but the shop still demands that I pay (which I obviously don’t).

But I don’t care, because the snow is gone, the sun is shining (through clouds some of the time) and I really think the winter is over!

The melting snow
The shining sun
 The first flowers

– It must be spring!
