The Bitter Sweet Life…

Cat hell (to be stuck with me) October 28, 2009

I know it’s a horrrible thing to say, but sometimes, I would quite honestly like to strangle my cat. Anyone got any tips on how to get a whiny cat to shut the hell up!?

Atleast I know what the other one wants when that one whines… most of the time.

SHUT UP!

 

To Sound Like an Alcoholic…. September 7, 2008

Last night me and the Bear were invited to two parties and neither of us were in the mood to drink, thus we went to the first one for a couple of hours and drank alcoholfree cider. I’m pretty talkative in my sober, everyday state of mind so it wasn’t really a problem but I found it was hard to find things to talk about or discussions for me to be part of. I’m finding that I have less and less stuff that I like to share with people face-to-face. Or rather, that I’m so self-involved that I can’t imagine it being interesting. I miss talking to people with the same background as I have. My boarding school friends whom I miss enormously… quite simply, other people who don’t mind talking about themselves! ;)  I know it’s not the swedish way to share more than neccessary. Maybe that’s why alkohol is so popular here. I should add though, so there’s wont be any missunderstandings, that it was a very pleasant and calm get together that I think I would have utterly enjoyed if I had been more relaxed.

After a couple of hours there we moved on to party #2 where the partying had gone overboard. There we dropped of the present to a very happy hostess and then bicycled homewards. 

As a whole, I enjoyed being sober, but I didn’t enjoy feeling like the bore. Although, not having the possibilty of running out to the balcony to have a cigarette every now and then to give me the chance totalk new people (even if it would just be an “excuse me, could I get through”) and give my restless soul some movement and a break between discussions, was, I think the hardest part.

It’s a new world for me to learn to handle! New habits to internalise after having relied on alcohol and cigarettes for so long. (note: I don’t want to become a soberist, I just want to teach my mind not to over think situations just because I don’t have alcohol in my system.)

The fact that I felt the way I did, proved to me that I needed to get used to not having alcohol in my system at these kinds of events, more than I thought. My only worry is that I’ll stop being invited in the process of getting comfortable in my own sober skin.

Sweet kisses to all!

Osiris, Little God of Cuteness! July 15, 2008

My new little cutie pie. :) Funny how things work out for the better so often.

From the start I actually wanted a so-called norwegian forest cat, but, that being a cat of pure race, would be hella expensive! Now, with the disapointments of the last cat (which was a regular mixed race cat and a cute one at that) we now are getting this cute one to the left. It’s 75% norwegian forest cat and we’ve decided to call it Osiris (Osis).

On top of that Osis won’t be old enough to move in with us until the end of august, which is when school starts and I have more time to give it. (Pretty much what I wanted from the start as well)

God he’s adorable! Wish I could take him in already! Heh (…and you guys should have seen the Bears face melt when these devilishly cute little mini-monsters wanted to play with him. ;) )

Sweet kisses to all!

 

Life is Good July 14, 2008

What a wonderful day I had yesterday. First I realized that I could button up my working pants all the way for the first time in months! Yay! …and this after just 1 1/2 weeks of training. Awesome! Ofcourse this makes it all the more enjoyable to go training. ;)

After a super short day at work I hang around with the Bear and have such good laughs, tears start rolling down my eyes. (The Bear thinks I cry for everything and he’s probably right! Heh) After much fun at Dunkers we bike up to André, watch a movie (“devils backbone”, same director as “pan’s labyrinth”, which I love) and eat some good food. On top of all this goodness I only had two cigarettes that day. I came home in the best mood I’d been in for ages. :)

Today, I’ve just come home from training and after some hopefully good food (waiting for the Bear to be done with his training) we’re going to take a look at a few new kittens that Björn has tried to fix up, and later I’m gonna watch another movie with another friend.

Life is good. :)

Sweet kisses to all!

 

The Bear and a Cat July 12, 2008

After I wrote the last blogg I was hugely dissapointed and quite frusterated (which for me means that big giant tears start falling and my bear takes the crap for it). ;) None the less, a sign of love: taking the load of me and trying to fix another cat to make me happy. Love you baby.

Sweet kisses to my bear. :)

 

F***ing Cat Lady Bitch! July 12, 2008

F***ing cat lady bitch! I called her yesterday to say that I can take care of the cat as soon as possible when I get back from my 5-day vacation and I find out that she wants me to pay extra for the time she’s been taking care of the cat, food and all that because the mother no longer took care of it. She got pissed at me because I said, just like I did from the start, that I wouldn’t be able to pick it up until the beginning of August as soon as I can. She got pissed at me that I couldn’t pick it up before that because I was going on vacation… “you said nothing about takign vacation, you said you were working” (as if it matters what reason I can’t pick it up earlier than the date I gave that we both agreed on).

This lady’s been changing the “rules” from day one. On the advertisment it says that the cat should be picked up at 12 weeks, and then the day I met her she said that she wanted to get rid of them at 10 weeks. A few weeks later she nuders the mom and thus wants to get rid of the cat even earlier, PLUS get more money for it.

Anyway, I called her today to try and settle it but in the end, we’re not getting a cat anymore, atleast not that cutie that I showed you guys a photo of a few weeks ago.

Bitter kisses to all.

 

Something Old, Something New. July 8, 2008

I’m a little ticked. The lady we’re buying the cat from nuddered the kittens mother, which means that the mother no longer cares for her little kittens any more. So, now that the mother isn’t taking care of the kittens, the lady wants to get rid of them as fast as possible. I hope the kitten had learnt to take care of itself before the lady nuddered the mom.

So, anyway, it seems we’re getting the kitten a few weeks earlier than planned. Let’s hope it works out! ;)

Oh, btw, remember the friend I met for the first time in 8 years a couple of months ago? Well, today a friend of that friend and my own came by to visit for a night with her girlfriend. Haven’t met him in 8 years either. Heh. Nowhere close to as crazy of a night as last time, but pleasant all the same.

It’s been a nice summer I have to say! Even with me working as much as I am. :) The kitten will hopefully just be the cherry on top. :)

Cheers!

 

Much Kitten Love! June 13, 2008

I’m adopting a little baby…. cat. :) So much talk, back and forth about if we’re ready for a little kitten or not, but today, i finally took the step to look at a couple. Not just on the net.
Now here’s my problem, I have two to choose from. which one to get? Does the so called personality of a cat matter when it’s a baby? Cuz one has such an adorably playful and curious natur whilst its sister just wanted to go back to sleep but was without question the cutest one of the bunch. 
Another thing, by default i’m more interested by the one that not everyone else chooses, and thus far everyone I’ve shown these pictures to has agreed on one cat… which more and more makes me want the other one. 
Anyway, I’d like some feedback on this. Which one to choose!? The more answers the better! :)
(aren’t they just the cutest little things??)
Sweet kitten licks to all!
 

Italia January 16, 2008

Funny how just before a ca 18 hour buss ride to Italy I get a cold, again. ;) But what the hell, this whole trip is gonna be interesting! First of all, I’m planning to drug myself up on motionsickness tablets to survive the trip there and back. Secondly I’m gonna spend 8 days snowboarding… something I haven’t done in 8 years.

Heh, ah well, I’m gonna have two great chefs cooking for me and I’ll be visiting a part of Italy for the first time in my life and hopefully snowboarding is like riding a bike! I promise to take lots of photos and share atleast one ones I’ve returned.

On a completely different note: Keep an eye open for little kittens that are looking for a new home. :) Yes , I’m looking for a cat.

Alrighty, I’m off to buy some of those lovely tablets for the ride and clean up my apartment and pack my bag .

Kisses to all!
