First day of work was okay. Even if starting at a new place always means having to do all the annoying crap work and having to ask how to do it.
My boss seems so nice. I can’t even remember the last time I’ve had a nice boss. Have I ever?
When I came home the dinner was ready, so that was goooooood.
And now there’s nachos and some game I’m obviously not watching. Maybe...

Oh good god I just want to sleep all the time.
I’m having all the naps. And all the snacks too. I was going to make a new year’s resolution to start eating healthy but then I just didn’t give a shit. And I start work on Monday. I haven’t been to real actual work in years. I have to wake up early and not sleep while I’m there. And survive on just lunch.
But it feels really nice to get to spend my days doing...

I fucking hate all the Skyrim memes in my tumblr.
It’s bad enough I see it every goddamn time I glance across the room, now I can’t even escape it to tumblr?
English Pronunciation
kalamazu:
marleymarley:
I just read this all aloud - had to look up a few words, and got a couple of them wrong. I suppose it makes it a little more difficult since I’ve got American pronunciation (and I’m fairly certain this is British - see ‘Islington’ reference). It’s pretty neat if you’re the wordy type. And maybe even if you’re not.
From the poke.
If you can pronounce correctly every...

Early Spring Cleaning On Tumblr
The growing publicity and the increasing number of followers have just made me uncomfortable enough to go through my archives and delete a whole shitload of old posts. This tumblr is now approved for all audiences and I already have a new, blank page, just waiting to be filled with anonymous dirt.
Cue: sigh of relief.

Top Tracks of 2011
(My most listened according to last.fm, only one song per artist.)
Stella - Kadun suurin talo
Florence + The Machine - Kiss With a Fist
Beth Ditto - I Wrote The Book
Ellie Goulding - Guns & Horses
Chisu - Kerrasta poikki
Cee Lo Green - Love Gun
Lily Allen - Who’d Have Known
Adele - Rolling In The Deep
La Roux - I’m Not Your Toy
Beyoncé - Sweet Dreams
I don't have to deal with egg nog, I drink glögi.
The main classic ingredients are (usually) red wine, sugar, spices such as cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves and bitter orange, and optionally also stronger spirits such as vodka, akvavit or brandy.
5 Songs I Never Skip
Adele & Darius Rucker - Need You Now This one’s for the unapologetic sap in me. I struggled with liking the original Lady Antebellum song because it’s good but it has this crossover-country-easy listening-adult-radio-vibe. But this cover is just a teensy bit more soulful and a teensy bit more perfect.
Beyonce - Why Don’t You Love Me I got beauty, I got heart, keep my head...

The Tuesday Thing
I signed up to the CHSH website to RSVP “maybe”, but APPARENTLY THAT’S NOT AN ALTERNATIVE. And let’s be honest, making a commitment to save up hundreds of euros to fly across the goddamn planet four months from now isn’t really something I’m capable of at this time. But just so you know, it’s a maybe.
I have a thing for Snapple. It’s not easy to...

Independent Truths
94 years ago today, after centuries of getting fucked in the ass by Swedes and Russians, my country became independent.
Happy birthday Finland!
Later my grandfather fought and was injured in a war to preserve our independence. The Karelian area where he came from was forfeited to the Soviet Union, his family lost their homes and were forced to migrate elsewhere.
These days independence is...

It's well past midnight
but I just had to pack most of my cosmetics (the things I won’t absolutely need for the next few days) and some towels and stuff. Not because I’m in a hurry or because it needs to be done now, but because I’m antsy and excited and I couldn’t stop myself. In a messed up way, I really like moving. Not the carrying though. But packing and unpacking is fun.
I need to be up in...
To Do:
Pack up books, DVDs and such
Take rugs to be cleaned
Get mail redirected and other paperwork
Clean up the new apartment
Arrange a van for the weekend
Get boxes (oh god, do I have enough?)
Pack up kitchen stuff (kinda started already)
Pack up everything else
Take down curtains, pictures, lamps and other crap hanging around
Move, unpack and organise everything (just a tiny little task)

I can't write about sex
Every Thursday I want to post something really steamy in spirit of the sexual frustration that usually goes with this day. I want to type out some kinky fantasies à la Miss Cook and make everyone else squirm as well. I wish I could sit down and produce a detailed description of the tied wrists, rough gropes and commanding words that can make sexy times mindblowing. Preferably in a way that...
