Mischief
Although Reinout had supposedly a bad back he couldn’t keep away from the winebar.
Some pictures from last night’s rendez vous with MJ and followed by an unexpected visit to the local sex shop. I found these cute little surprise packages which I decided to buy for Reinout’s staff. Quite silly, but a lot of [...]

Meeting with the past
It was with a certain dread, excitement and anticipation I installed myself in a cab to take me from Copenhagen to Malmo. It’s one of those few occasions, when you really have no clue how things will turn out. There will be people you haven’t met since your early teens, a period which for most [...]
Reinout has a wild evening
It’s been a strange day. Apart from a lingering headache, the result of my 3 hours of sleep last night, the day has not turned out as anticipated. It started at 2 am. I woke up, but Reinout was not there. I tried to call him a few times, but as I couldn’t reach him [...]
Change of plans
To my dismay there was no salsa lesson tonight. The last half an hour had been a rush job, getting dressed, practice a few of those moves and turns and downing a steak that turned out raw, in just under 5 minutes.
So there I was, standing in front of closed doors. But I am not [...]
Selling dreams
I love the creations of Els Hillenius, and everytime I walk past I have to make a stop to just get a glimpse of their display. They sell much more than gorgeous dresses, they sell dreams. The kind, well assorted shops did 50 years ago when the masses could rarely afford their content. Today, when [...]
A new hobby
I’ve discovered the perfect new hobby - frog hunting. Our pond is full of them, most being relatively small still, but some have become quite a decent size over the summer. Yesterday evening, as I was waiting for Reinout to come home, I got this brilliant idea to go frog hunting. One became two which [...]
Champagne, Wasteland and going sway
I have the mother of all headaches. Now I regularly suffers from a minor, almost constant headache, centred around my left temple. But this is something else. I suspect I only have myself to blame as last night became both unexpectedly late as well as wet. First we had B over for dinner and lots [...]
Living without eating. Is it possible?
For the first time in months I start to feel hungry. An orange for breakfast is not meeting my food requirements. I use all the will power I have to extend my morning without eating. Orange before 10 am means that I will be hungry again before lunch. It’s true that after rapid weight loss [...]
Easter weekend with friends & family
Once in a while, you need one of those long weekends to catch up on sleep, family and friends. They are perfect battery chargers, boosting your energy, breaking those bad patterns and eliminating negative vibes.
Easter turned out in many ways to be a mini-life saver. After weeks of struggling with sleep, completely draining my [...]
