Fracas Noir || Susanne Waldau - te Brake I swear to tell the truth as I know it…

My husband is in an excellent mood! Needless to say it makes me very happy too! I don’t know if it’s because of a clean house, a clean admin or a clean conscious. Perhaps it’s all three. My husband is, what you could call, a periodic administrator. Just like the periodic alcoholic abstaining from alcohol, [...]

I just woke up having the weirdest of dreams. I was working in an old building which was a cross between the office in Amsterdam and the local cigar shop in Haarlem. I had my own little room in the office where I was sitting working away when I lost my eye. Yes my right [...]

Who said the days between Christmas and New Year where lazy? Earlier this morning I got a call from my husband just checking in on how I was doing. “Fine”, I replied and with that we continued to chit chat about what the day had in store for both of us. My husband had a [...]

When I saw you there on the street, I realized how much I love you. My heart took a leap and for a moment it was like it was only the two of us. It was one of those defining moments when I knew why I want to spend the rest of my life with [...]

Last night, as Reinout came home, I was just wrapping up my dinner, stressed as in half an hour I had my appointment with my hairdresser. Reinout asked me why I was so stressed. I looked at him with an almost (I imagine) blank face. I had just made dinner, emptied the laundry and put [...]

The house is empty. Reinout left this evening. His Prada aftershave lingering for a few more moments, as to gently ease the void he’s left behind. Again I feel cheated on the promise we once made to eachother, never to go one night without going to bed and waking up together. But one night becomes [...]

Why is it that men can’t be relied upon to find a good movie? Reinout had already selected a film for us to see, and it was no idea to protest, so I went along with it….Lost City Raiders. It was one of the worst movies I’ve seen since… well a few months back when [...]

Yes, what can go wrong will go wrong! We were suppose to leave early in the morning. But one of our appointments got cancelled for today so we are left with only two (I know I’m being somewhat secretive about these appointments but it shall be disclosed soon). In any case we left later in [...]

It’s a fart party this morning. I don’t know what my husband ate last night, but it’s not good I can tell you that. Fortunately I slept so deep that I didn’t notice anything but this morning is another story. I sprayed my heaviest perfume, Iris Nobile by Aqua di Parma to mitigate the effect. [...]

I just woke up. My alarm clock was staring back at me with a clear message that it was already 12 o’clock. Fantastic! Every bit of extra sleep I catch right now is welcome.

It wasn’t a particularly busy day yesterday. Apart from having to go and file a report at the police for a [...]
