Each year my husband and I each get our own gifts, but we also decide on one large combined gift that we share. Either something we want for the house, an activity we’d like to try or something we really need that both of us will use and enjoy. This year we have been undecided [...]
I may very well be the last gamer on the planet to hear about these people, but I feel the need to share… just in case there’s someone more out of the loop than I am.
The Guild are a group of gamers who came together to make their own web-based show about five [...]
I have a bunch of stuff in my head but can’t really concentrate on one single thing. Welcome to my pity party…
I went to a party last weekend that had a lot of crying snot covered little kids in a small area. Having not purchased myself a plastic bubble yet, I got ANOTHER COLD. Yeah, [...]
I think anyone who knows me and my husband knows that we are major gadget geeks. Rather than clothes and shoes, holidays and whatever else people usually spend their money on, we are always on the lookout for a new laptop, PDA, mobile phone, etc. My working has really made this easier for us.
This is [...]
One of the things I hated about gaming, and don’t miss in the slightest, is all the smacktalk that goes on. When you play online games of any kind, you can’t escape the morons who use the games to make themselves feel like less of a loser and spend all their time mouthing off.
I haven’t [...]
My husband found this drawing on the Internet somewhere and we both laughed our asses off. I shit you not, we have actually had this exact conversation.
Honestly, it’s like a day in the life of the Soldaats right there…
This past weekend Xander and I went to visit our friends Penny and Yuri. They are housesitting for Yuri’s boss here in Rotterdam and it’s been great having them so close. They live in Roosendaal, about a 35-40 minute drive from us, so we get together once every 1-2 weeks if we are lucky.
The place [...]
This week I’m playing Lord of the Rings Online. Xander has grown bored with World of Warcraft and bought LOTRO to try something different. It came with a 7 day free trial for a friend so I installed it on my laptop to arse around with it. It’s been a long time since I did [...]
This week I’m FOADing my husband and his World of Warcraft addiction. I am quickly reaching the end of my rope with it and I feel like a total hypocrite about it… but I don’t care. I’m sick to death of his gaming addiction.
Being a former gamer myself it’s hard not to feel like I [...]
One of the big controversies online at the moment is about Sony’s new PSP ads in Holland. The ads are for the new white PSP that is coming out which is represented by a white woman dressed in white, while the black PSP is represented by… yes you guessed it, a black woman dressed [...]
Well I made it through the hitlergolf and managed to sweat myself off another 2 lbs, go go gadget heatwave!! Maybe I should move to some tropical island and all I’d really have to do is drink a lot of water so I don’t die, as I’d sweat every time I moved and lose weight [...]

So for the last year or so I’ve been playing World of Warcraft pretty steadily. I joined a great guild of mainly south africans and we have had a TON of laughs and good times, but like any game I’m starting to feel quite “meh” about it. So yesterday I [...]
So Xander has been gone for four days now and I’m still surviving, actually I think the time alone has done me some good! I’ve made plans with friends and done more housework than I usually do when he is around (huh?!) I wonder why that is/
MISS MY PERIOD KEY
I am a habitual [...]
Naw, I’m not pregnant, I just have no PERIOD key/ So I have to use a slash every time I want to stop a sentence/ Pretty sure my laptop is on it’s last legs at the moment, considering my lack of periods and the amount of crashes I get each day/
Saw an [...]
Mom told me yesterday that the first day of spring is March 20, which isn’t too far away now. Another winter in NL under my belt and it was not as good as last winter but not as bad as other ones. I didn’t do much of anything, stayed around home and [...]
Little self-scold there… seeing as I’ve been such a crap blogger lately.
Not a whole lot new here. Been working on my quilting a lot and doing some knitting.. my scarf should be done just in time for when I’ll need it hehe.
This is the example of the block I’m working on this week. [...]
I found this game online and it’s making me nuts…
Clicky Clicky for Crazy Game!
The object of the game is to make sure that none of the lines are crossing.. I’m up to level 7 at the moment and starting to get frustrated with it. It’s one of those games that you just [...]
Yeah, who knew that beer could get moldy. It was a “You know it’s time to clean up when.. ” moment for me today when I saw a glass on the end table next to my sofa with moldy beer in it. I’ve been so incredibly lazy with my housework [...]
I was looking online at Netflix and am so jealous that we don’t have it here in NL. I’d totally subscribe if we did! We have a few cheap immitations but nothing that compares at all. I looked up a few different old movies just to see if they had them [...]
I am in so much pain today :(
Yesterday I went to the shop with “Willie” to pick up some more tiles as we decided to have the toilet done as well as our bathroom. You see, here in the Netherlands it’s not uncommon for the toilet to be totally seperate from the bathing/showering [...]
