Utterly wanting to be somewhere else

Thou shalt not, fucking...complain! This is the first commandment. Still, there is reason to.

The cool part about this brand new year, is that it ends with an eight (8). As we all know, eight is the luckiest number of all. Just as being a dragon is the luckiest thing you can be. Lucky me, then that the year 2008 is a Chinese Brown Earth Rat Year.

The seat of power

Imagine all the souls who have stood in this spot, looking in the same direction as I was when I took this picture. A hundred years ago, there wasn't as much light as there is now, and the place smelled to high heaven of rotting fish, dumped on the quay by fishing boats moored just below the lion's grand posture.

Here, Kitty!

This was going to be a post on a heavy subject. But then, what would be the point?
I realized that it's better to be positive and proactive. Thus, I'm pleased to announce that my family has a new member! Yep, that's her on the right.

Drink, I think

I've just discovered a new beverage I have to try. Apparently it's available in Korea. http://www.jinro.com/

In my bubble between trees

I just drove, tried not to think to deeply. Sadness welled up inside me. So I didn't. Think too much, that is.
Instead, I watched the brilliant trees. They were covered in powdery snow, as though dusted with sugar. I tricked myself into joyousness, almost bliss there, for a while.
Life is strange. I've got to immerse myself in it and do a bit of catching up.

Fishy evidence

What goes in the bag, stays in the bag. Or does it?
What's he on about? Why is he in the car?
Why is this posted on a blog, and why do you think I'm watching this?
I thought I was someone else.

On the way

Even better than the real thing

voff?

New killer star

All the corners of the buildings

Who but we remember these?
The sidewalks and trees
I'm thinking now
I got a better way
I discovered a star

Panerai

I just can't let it go. Yes, I know it's totally unneccesary but, there it is! The Panerai 's just one of those things, you know? It has that alluring style and quality that fits right in just anywhere.

Screwy chic

Yes, I do like these lamps a lot! It's something about the... ahh, latent violence.
This is definitely something I would have in my palace, were I a third world dictator. I would actually like it in my living-room anyway, but the price-tag is a bit....much. It really would be cheaper to just buy an illicit AK47 and dip it in gold yourself!
Hmm...!

Film Star

Ingrid on a sunny Saturday morning.

Guess the spot

This is one of my favourite views. I like the facade, the choice of roofing material and how the whole thing is situated. Some of the corners are too
aggressive to suit my taste, but imperfection is dynamic.
From this viewpoint, there is an even more interesting building behind your back.

Dub

Today is tuesday. Just three more days to friday. Oh, happiness! I will compile a CD with dub, get a dozen Red Stripe and spend a slow, langorous afternoon drifting into early evening cooking in my kitchen. Coconut and fish, small pizzas for the kids and something with lots and lots of chili.

Full sleeve

As you already know, having read every posting on this blog, I like art.
Now, what better way to appreciate art than carrying it around on you? Thus, I've developed an (unhealthy?) interest in personal adornment by way of getting more* tattoos.
So, how about I do one arm full sleeve? Something like Russel Mitchells arm (see pic) perhaps?

*Yes, I do have one already. It's just like the one most every other person seems to have nowadays; A small one, often done in tribal black with some obscure meaning to the person wearing it.

I like the way you move...

I like riding my Zoomer and listening to music while I do it! I'm going to like it even more soon, thanks to Polini...

Lots of trees and some fresh air

I spent this sunday afternoon in the woods with at least part of my family. I brought along my standard issue army survival knife. It's the black one with a built in whistle and fire-steel. Pretty handy, as I used it to start a campfire for burning our sausages and marshmallows into inedible crisps...

I came home smelling like an arsonist. the sausages were good, though!

Re-creation or maintenance of my soul

This may sound a bit obvious, but doing something enjoyable is beneficial for your brain
