Oooh, Olivia...

So, recently (well ok about 2 months ago) I became the proud parent of a new computer...

Thanks to all the bells and whistles that the new machine has, I can do many more things than I was able to before.

Today, while testing some of my software, (Yes, I did get some work done too. Sheesh...) I decided to have a look at this page:

http://www.ralst.com/MultiMedia.html

Most of the shows offered on the page are not so interesting to me, but when I saw the Law&Order: SVU section, I decided to have a look-see.

Oooo... Mariska Hargitay (Detective Olivia Benson) is Phat!

I am gonna need to get a splash-guard for my keyboard...

The clips are linked somewhat haphazardly, but I especially enjoyed the clip called: Brown Eyed Girl


Monday, monday...

I need to work... Websites to build, homework to complete, yard to secure, paperwork to do...

But I don't wanna!

I want to sit, sip more coffee and then take a nap!

I so need a sexetary...

You know, a woman to sit at my desk with nothing on but two pencils to hold her hair up and reading glasses on her nose, who will take dictation...

Ooo, now there is a visual! (I'm so bad...)

Must go work, don' wanna!


Dog days...

I wish...

Wire in The Blood was fine tonight, but I have noticed that the better of the two part episodes, is usually the second one. The first being a kind-of buildup, like foreplay...

I have a thing for cop-shows, what can I say, always have. I don't actually have a thing for cops necessarily, but a woman in uniform can get my socks all a-twirl, that is for certain; owh lah lah.

I remember once while I was in a grocery store when I lived in the US, a pair of female Air Force pilots, in their flight-suits showed up to, I dunno, buy 'Pilot Food'... I am quite certain I walked smack-bang into a wall on sight, sometimes I can be SO unsubtle! Heh...


Daylight Savings

Never saved me anything, except that I feel like I am going mad as half the clocks and watches around me have not been set to the correct time yet...

As far as I remember, North America falls back an hour next weekend, but Australia has gone to summer time as we went to winter time.

Oh boy...

Better not make any calls this week, or I might catch someone asleep or something.

Speaking of sleep, why on earth do I feel so tired?


And today...

I am going to workout, well I actually workout almost every day, but some days I make a concentrated effort to feel the burn!

Tonight, Wire in The Blood will be on again, which will be fun for my inner 'Dawg' (Woof!) but also this show on MTV3, Wire...

It is gritty indeed, and makes me absurdly homesick, I used to live in a neighbourhood very much like the ones shown in the show. This was back when I was just a Baby Dyke, a lifetime ago...

Funny how the brain plays games, when I lived in 'da Hood' I could not wait to get away, but once gone, I saw that there were up-sides to it, namely, a distinct lack of B.S. and a certain code of 'honor among thieves', that if you did not disturb or insult, would extend to you, even if you were not part of it.

But I am getting all sentimental here...

The lovely, edible and incredible Carol Jordan on WITB, apparently flirted with a lesbian relationship in college, according to a rumour I heard about the books that the TV series is based on.

Yeah baybe!


Dancing...

I just heard a snippet from Madonna's new single, can't wait for her album to be released!

I want to go dancing...

For all the Country Charms this area provides, it does not provide dancing. Hearing Madonna's latest reminded me of the clubs I used to go to....

I remember at one they had a Madonnathon; I mean it went from 8 PM to 5 AM, or something like that anyway.

Anyway, I ended up dancing the night (and morning) away with a Transsexual who told me that I made her feel like a woman, as I was strong (and gallant) enough to twirl and dip her and did not seem to care about anything except dancing.

She was right... I love to dance...

Off into the night I go...

Though I seriously need to make a trip, maybe to Helsinki, and try get some of this restlessness out of my system!


Blah, the weather...

Muddy, icky...

Well, no doubt it will snow tomorrow, but I get this impression that the weather patterns have changed significantly even in the past 3 or so years that I have been back in Finland.

Mars is now as close as it will be to the Earth in until something like 2018...

I love the night sky, it soothes me on a day like to day when I feel deflated.

Of course, I'd rather have a different kind of soothing oftentimes, but right now the night is more than sufficient.


Saturday, baybe!

I slept well, the coffee was good, there was no moose-meat bearing neighbour running around and it is above freezing!

Maybe I will go scare the kids and go fishing while the water is still open?

Really, I am not a witch...



Moose-meat and mornings...

Ah, Friday!

Highlights of the day include: My morning coffee...

I am a coffee person, I love how it tastes, how it smells, that it is dark and warm. It's a big deal to me, and after 'Wein, Weib und Gesang...' it is a serious vice of mine...

Tonight Olivia Benson struts her stuff on TV again; they tell me there is some other woman on the show, but I have not really noticed her yet...

On another front, seems that my neighbour has bagged a moose, as he arrived this morning bearing a bloody bag of moose-meat.

My 6 month old puppy was overjoyed of course, silly hound!

Were it not for the fact that he is old enough, just about, to be my grandfather, I think I would feel like I was involved in some kind of Stone-Aged courting ritual.

And so, off I go into my surreal life...

Goulash tonight! Yum!!
