Things I bought today

Tuesday Shopping

From left to right:

  • Wall-E Kleenex box: Oh yeah baby! I bought two of those. Couldn’t resist that cuteness <3
  • O.B. tampons: No, I don’t need so many at once, but it’s always good to have a few extra. Pro comfort, of course.
  • Cilia teafilters: Since I’ve had a cold I’ve been drinking tea (is that grammar correct?). Herbal tea. I’m not sick anymore but the tea still tastes good.
  • Herbal Essences: Because it smells soooo good. I’ve been testing shampoos and conditioners lately and I’m not satisfied with most of them. My hair looks greasy after one day. Herbal I like though (Pantene Pro-V and Elvital too)
  • F.R.I.E.N.D.S: Season 3 – on sale for €10 ($13)! Now I’m only missing season 1 and 2. This is what I like about being “not rich” – it takes years until I have all ten seasons together. If I were rich I could buy all ten at once, which would be quite boring. (btw, Friends in German SUCKS!)
  • Floss: The dentists favorite!
  • Hairband: In pink and in the kids-section. The circlets for adults are too big for my small head :(. I’d like a brown one, but it seems like kids only wear pink, blue, red and purple, in addition with flowers and bows.
  • Ajax: Because that’s my answer for everything. I use it in my kitchen, bathroom, on my desk & table. It’s perfect.

Any exciting purchases you made lately? Share!

Mole – Sick – Teeth

I’ve been sick the last couple of days. I got “the thing that’s going around these days” which contains a sore throat, a terrible headache (starting at 17:00 – thanks for Advil) and just feeling bleh! The Lover came daily and took care of me. He bought me herbal medicine, made me tea, rubbed menthol-balm on my back and chest and filled my aching body with love ((by laying close next to me)).

My mole is doing fine, thanks for the comments 🙂 It was nothing dangerous, I could have left it big and fat in my face, but to see why it’s all big and fat the doctor suggested to cut it out. Turns out there was a cyst underneath it. There’s still a bunch of glue ((a suturation was not performed)) and dried blood around the scar, I have no idea if it will fall of or if I should carefully peel it off. The glue works so well (thank god), that I had to scratch it off my cheek away with a nail scissors, so therefore the doubt it’ll just fall off. Anybody have experience with this?

I called in sick for work today which sucks, because I would have been able to attend an “Apache Tomcat” training today to Wednesday. Seeing I’m not fit 100% I didn’t join. Plus, I need to be healthy again by Thursday 11:00 because that’s when my wisdom teeth ((left side)) will be pulled. Gaaah!! 🙁 I am NOT looking forward to that. I got the right side pulled about 6 years ago, the operation itself was good, just the days after were sucky. I’ll post pictures 😉

Bye bye mole, bye bye happiness…

Bye bye mole Nah, not really bye to happiness, but my mole is gone (yes, this IS exciting news). This mole was part of me for I don’t know how many years, I can’t remember NOT having that mole. It’s been getting a little bigger (not in size, but in “sticking out”) and it was annoying.

On Friday I went to the dermatologist and he said the only thing he can do is cut it out. I was lucky to get an appointment for my mini-op that same day. He injected the mole with anaesthesia and then stabbed around in my face 🙂

Now I’m wearing a huge band-aid (the cut is two centimeters long) and people are staring at me 😀

Current Lifestyle Phase

Well, not so current.

After I get up, I go online. I surf while drinking coffee. I go to work (where I write my thesis), work until 17:00 or 18:00, meaning, that’s about 8 hours of PC, I then come home, go online again and I’m on the computer until about midnight. And that’s my lifestyle, for months now. It’s been better in the summer, I love spending days outside, but now?

I had to organize my field trip a few weeks ago, it took about three weeks for me to organize (creating all kind of maps, getting the instruments…) and I was in stress. The Lover was the one who was allowed to experience my lovely moods. During that time I wasn’t in the mood for sports, I just didn’t have the time.

And now? I haven’t done sports in WEEKS! I haven’t had sex in WEEKS (or was it months?)!! I don’t like this lifestyle of mine at the moment, I’d love to change it, but somehow I can’t. It sucks 🙁 Boo!

I once had a phase where I came home from work and didn’t go online the whole evening, because I just wasn’t in the mood. I wish I’d be in that phase again…

Thanks for all the sweet comments on my layout 🙂 I got the flower brush from 4shared.com, it’s only the contour you get. I liked it so much, I started filling it. This time I wanted a totally different layout seeing the last layout was pretty much “standard” nowadays. I knew I wanted the “asides” again and so I started creating a layout around the flower. This is what I came up with 🙂 I still need to work on the subpages though (about, domain, misc).
