Act Quickly, Think Slowly

I felt a little lonely this weekend because Victor was away; he went to visit his parents who live in Welkom from Friday night till yesterday morning. He fetched me when he got back this side and we went to Mr. Video and rented Eragon on DVD for us to watch at his place. We smoked some cherry hubbly bubbly too; I like making circles with the smoke, well at least I try to! I felt uneasy while he was gone but I felt a little better when he got back. Some days I just wish that he’s with me all the time and doesn’t have to leave but yeah…

My younger and older sister along with my brother-in-law to be went to the cinema at Key West on Saturday and watched Pirates of The Caribbean: At World’s End. I quite enjoyed it and will be buying the DVD when I can; I like Captain Jack Sparrow… We went to the nine o’clock show that night and walked out the cinema at midnight. The mall was so dead but this town is like that anyway…

Victor called the letting agent today to find out what’s going with our lease application. She said that it is taking longer than she expected and asked Victor to fax a copy of the application and lease agreement to her; apparently the credit department or something lost the first copy that was faxed through… She said that she’ll try to speed up the process and that we shouldn’t worry as she has several of the apartments that are still available.

I haven’t had experience with this before so I don’t know if it’s taking too long or not… Hopefully we get some response this week, whether our application is approved or not. I mean it’s just about a week left till August anyway!

Superfly With No Goodbye

This past weekend seemed to go by so fast! Victor and I had a braai at his place on Saturday to celebrate our six month anniversary. He made the fire and I cooked the meat; I ended up smelling like a braai myself! I like braais, especially in summer; meat off the braai with some potato salad and a cold glass of juice or soda… Oh, I am so craving those summer days!

I’ve been downloading content for The Sims 2 for my sisters and I as my father had upgraded his computer’s RAM; now the game runs smoothly instead of lagging like before. My sisters had been hogging it for days and I hadn’t had a chance to play until this morning while they were at school. I got bored a while after of making a family and starting with their house. I’ll finish it tomorrow maybe, if I’m in the mood…

I want to start making custom content for The Sims 2; clothes, bedding, recolors… I don’t know, I guess that I’ll see in time because my computer is a bitch. I’m running out of space on my hard drive so I have to sit down here and sort through my files and keep what I actually want and need. It’s really slow and I want to upgrade it when I can afford to so that I could have a game or two installed.

I’ve finally been able to download Harris Tweed’s song, Superfly. It’s my song of the moment and I’ve been listening to it way too much over the last forty eight hours… The lyrics “Superfly with no goodbye” is being played over and over in my head like a scratched record and it’s stuck like that. I can’t get that song out of my head! I have to buy their CD as soon as I can; not only because I like that song and that they sound great, but because they’re local too!

It’s Been A While

Yeah, I know… It has been a while… I had lost my interest towards this website of mine and hadn’t really done anything with it for a couple of months… I tend to lose interest in many things. After some time I’ll find some interest and go with it again, pretty much like this website.

Anyway, what have I been up to these past couple of months? Well, besides being the lazy ass that I am, I honestly haven’t done anything really productive…

Items purchased at the Chinese flea market near Gold Reef CityI went to the Chinese flea market near Gold Reef City for the first time and with the little money I had that day, I was able to buy some nice things. There are so many things there… I bought myself my first few pairs of toe socks amongst some other things. I really just went to buy some skull pendants that my older sister had bought from there but I wasn’t able to find any… Maybe next time…

Items purchased at the Chinese flea market near Gold Reef CityVictor and I are engaged to be married! He proposed on the evening of May 2nd… Sure it is quite soon to get engaged but I am happy and he is happy, that is all that matters. We will be moving into our first place in a few months or so… I can’t wait till we start looking for a place.

Gifts from KoitsuOver two weeks ago, I had received a notice in the mail saying that I had a parcel to pickup from the post office. I had no idea as to who sent the parcel and I wasn’t expecting anything in the mail at that time, so I was curious and excited because I hardly receive mail anyway. The next morning I went to the post office, got the package and as I walked out of the post office, I looked at the package and noticed a Fetish Factory sticker on it and right then I knew what was inside and who it was from…

I opened the package as soon as I got home and inside I found three pairs of socks, a pair of arm warmers, a couple promotional flyers and a note that said that these items were bought off of my wish list… Thank you, Koitsu*!

Artwork on a wall inside of Zeplin's nightclubAbout two weeks ago I went to a nightclub for the first time… Victor took me to Zeplin’s nightclub in Pretoria on the 12th. We drove almost an hour to get there and an hour to get back… So because of that and my midnight curfew, we had to leave before The Awakening got on stage. I really wanted to see them play as I have never seen a live band. Victor showed me around and I took some photos of the artwork on the walls inside of the nightclub before it got busy. I enjoyed myself that night even though I didn’t dance… I can’t dance to save my life anyway!

I upgraded my WordPress installation and my K2 files, also changed the default K2 style for a little visual change on this website. I’m sick of the layout I had on here for so long. I’ll come up with something better, whenever…
