Be cool, sodapop
New obsession: Veronica Mars. I actually bought the first season DVDs, so I’ve got it that bad. If you know me, you’ll also know that I don’t often spend money on stuff like that, cause I’m a regular Scrooge. I’m sort of getting over my Scrooge-y tendencies now though.
So… I got the DVDs on tuesday and finished watching all the episodes tonight. I’m now desperate for TVN to start showing season 2. DESPERATE!! I’d pre-order the DVDs if I could, but I’d have to pre-order from abroad, which would cause them to get a bit too expensive for my liking, what with the customs and all.
Anyway… I guess part of why I like it is because I can relate to it. Even though I went to a small elementary/junior high school, I had my share of cool, dorky, weirdo and just-plain-not-cool crowds. I like to think that I was somewhat cool when I first started elementary school. At least everyone were nice to me. But that quickly changed… When I started fourth grade, a new girl moved to town, and I was quickly moved from cool to social pariah. Ah yes, so many memories that I won’t share, because I’m sort of trying to forget a lot of what happened. I never quite regained my cool either. I’ve got these bitter memories from confirmation camp and high school as well. Bygones, bygones. Sort of, but not really. Had I not been in a steady relationship, I probably would end up a bitter old cat-lady. Of course, there’s still plenty of time for that to happen, but I’ll try my best not to let it.
Bottom line is that I really enjoy watching Veronica Mars.
Håkon, about the house-building… We sort of HAVE to take one of the Systemhus houses, or we’ll have to pay a lot more… So, sorry. :(
So, next week will be hectic for me. First off, it’s my turn to do the coffee making at work, so I obviously need to figure out how that works. You might think that making coffee is something everyone would know how to do, but I haven’t done it since I was little and used to serve my parents coffee in bed. As I don’t drink coffee myself, I have no idea how to make it so that people will actually want to drink it.
Then wednesday, there’s a seminar and a farewell-dinner, followed by helping Hedda move her stuff to her new apartment. Thursday and Friday I have study-leave from work, the weekend will probably also be spent reading, as well as Monday… Then the exam is Tuesday, EEEK. I think my best bet is to know a little about everything, but also a lot about one or two things. I’m guessing the legal system(s) might come up, and perhaps federalism and womens’ rights. *hyperventilate* Must…know…everything.
Lately, Link’s been making a lot of noise. It’s like he just learned how to meow, and now he’s got his heart set on using his ability to the fullest in case he loses it again. He’ll sit on the window sill behind me as I watch TV, and just…meow. For no good reason at all. If I shush him or make any sign at all that I heard him, he’ll go on meowing even more. If I don’t answer him, he’ll just meow some more or perhaps attack my head.
Now, a quick shower before I’m off to bed.

I’ve had a Veronica Mars obsession for a while now, so I’ve watched the second season too ;)
Which letter is Link using the most when he meow? Maybe he wants something ;D

Oh dear, imagine NOT drinking coffee. *looks lovingly at my 3 types of coffe, my espresso can, my pressing can and the regular coffee maker* About time you learned that. To quote some cartoon I don’t remember: You know the coffee is strong enough when the spoon stands by itself in the middle of the cup. *g* (Not recommended btw)
And we get the key to the apartement tomorrow, so if Monday night or tuesday is better for the big moveout, then gimme a holler! :)
