What killed the cat?


Music: “Fooled Again” by RK  (repeat-mode)
Mood: upset
In my glass: would need a shot of... er... anything!
I’m so upset.  Why, why, why???  I shouldn’t be.  I know I should not be.  
Feeling like a stupid idiot.  
Grrrrr.....   OK, I’d better stop it now.  I’ll have to see if I’m feeling the same tomorrow.  If so, I’ll think about it again... why and how.
--------
I’m not feeling well anyway, am under the weather :(  Stayed home today, did some housekeeping duties.  
It was also a bad-hair-day.  Need a hair cut (and yes, colour!!!) very soon, very very soon :(
--------
UGH!!!!

Crisis


Music: Playlist “Top rated”, now playing “Who’s Going to Shoe Your Pretty Feet” by Richard Hawley
Mood: on the edge
In my glass: “Kirin”
Oooh.. I’m so sleepy, almost falling asleep at the computer.  Now I’m going only to type out my memos to keep it as a draft.  I’ll work it out later.
...
So,
I’m not that Yes/No or Black/White.  I’m just in between (except for one thing...  :(  ).
It’s easy for you to tell me to set my course as I want, just straight to my own will.  
It’s not fair for you to say I’m not trying to do my best or to do what I’m supposed to do.  It’s not that simple.  Especially when I’m between two different cultures.  And especially now.  
Where am I?  Why am I here?  What am I doing?  Who am I??
Now I think I know why I like the southern part of the NL so much.  The Dutch in general are very rational and, I don’t know if it’s the right word... but... “hard” as well.  But people in the South are, I think, yes, they are rational just like the - standard - Dutch but also milder than the - standard - Dutch and more emotional.  
The Dutch in general do, of course, have emotions.  But it’s not their “virtue” to show or follow their emotions.
As for me... rational, yes.  I mean, I know how I should be, what I’m supposed to do.  But also too emotional to be like that or to do that without any struggle. 
The Japanese, I think, are more emotional than rational... But they are supposed to obey the rules.  That’s very much different from being rational and hard.  
...Er... I’m too tired and sleepy to make sense.  
Anyways, it was not my day... days.  I’m.. er... dragging and crawling.  
And.... “I have to tell the world that I...”. ..”I’ve got to shout from the rooftop that I...”.. but I can’t (and I’m not supposed to do that).  And that is so...  uugh...  so tough and really killing me.  
Wish I had not promised to be quiet :( 
Uhm... well, guess it’s not important.

Falling...


Music: “Blue Train” by John Coltrane, right now playing “Moment’s Notice”
Mood: “Kind Of Blue”
In my glass: "Kirin"
It was a beautiful day.  Clear blue sky, lots of sunshine.  Nice n warm.  But it’s different than what it was a month ago.  The sky, the air, the colours, the smell, the light... all different.
It’s going to be a colder season again.  
I’m in a far away land.  Long way from home.. where it once was my home.  An empty space.
I’m falling.  ...Asleep.

Tune now playing: “Lazy Bird”  (...hm... me?)

I'll do anythang, just to be loved by you...”
...“Anythang”..

Could one think of anything better?

P.S.
I love you.

Cheers!


Music: “Way Out West” by Sonny Rollins, now playing “Wagon Wheels”
Mood: :)
In my glass: Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon
I keep forgetting.  There’s nothing to “crawl” about right now. I’d better enjoy every small happiness.  Cherish the moments.
I am smiling now.  And, in fact, it’s a big smile :))  
Feeling warm inside on a very cold rainy day.  
How simple I can be... Well, don’t they say “simple is the best”? 
Hm.. or.. it’s a matter of “perspective”.  It’s all how you look at it, how you see it.  
In a way... I haven’t been this “happy” for a long time.  
Cheers!

Nap


Music: Playlist “Top rated”, now playing “Fast Money Fast Cars” by RK
Mood: #%$#&(*&)$#@~~~~!!!!!!!
In my glass: French red (Pays d’Oc)


I was having a nap this afternoon and dreamed of Pippie.
The front door was open.  Pippie was sitting at the door, looking outside.  I picked her up, held her in my arms and said, “Don’t go away or Kym. will be sad, will cry”.  She purred.   She was very soft.

Too bad


Music: Playlist “P3”, now playing “Blue Jean Blues” by ZZ Top
Mood: ...er....
In my glass: “Kirin”

Mom was feeling better the other day and we - she, me, two friends - went to the karaoke bar again.  I was there only to take pics - at least, that was my intention.  But in fact, it’s very hard to keep saying, “no, thank you, but I’m not going to sing”.
So, alright, I sang a song.. yes I did.  ..Eeew..  :(
One of Mom’s friends asked if the song was meant for somebody.  I said, “yes.”
Then... he (this friend) started to sing a song.. it was “Diana” by Paul Anka.  Ha!  I think - I am very certain - he was singing the song to my mom.  But alas, Mom was not really listening.
It’s quite clear to see he’s got warm feelings for her.  I think she knows that, too.  But she says, “...too bad.”

Hm... right...
I hear that, too.  Too bad.
