I have bought myself a new lamp. You can tell me what you think of it, if that suits you. My mother hates it. She claims it looks like, something that fits for circus. But because of the hearts, I had to have it you know. Almost everything with hearts, are things I have to have. If I can afford it.I've had a cold lately, slightly. I should have worn a scarf. So I haven't been able to write much in my diary. But I can tell you, that my next entry will only be about flies. No politics. Just flies.
I have written an entry about gay rights, but I will not post it up today, as I wrote it a few days ago and I should have to look it over. I have also written a more personal entry, where I'm referring to things I have talked about before. I will not either post that one up today, as I should also have to add something else to it.
I'm currently busy buying and making Christmas gifts. A friend of mine which celebrates this holiday in USA, will have to get hers first. I have to ship it down in a box (no bombs though). So I'm making her a burned CD, that I just found out, have to be put on two discs. And then I'm going to create CD covers for them. Along with this, I have also bought her a gift. I've always thought it would be wrong to ship candy and food, as it maybe would be seen as drugs, by the security guards? And I would like the package to arrive.
Another friend of mine, will get perfume. And yet another one will probably get a book. And then there are cards of course. Lots of cards. I would have liked to give gifts, to my online friends too. But maybe cards are okay? I don't have many friends, I've never had many friends. I'm very different than my brother that way, because my brother have always had a million friends. But I like to have a few good friends. Not because I don't like people, but because I will always have a space for all of them, that way. It suits me fine. Besides, I'm shy and scared to meet new people. That part doesn't always, suit me well.
I'm buying house objects for my parents, as I have done that for a few years now. Last year I bought curtains and Christmas glasses and plates for them. Christmas items as Christmas gifts are maybe not the best choice, as they get it when the holidays are almost over. But my parents seemed happy about it and I gave it to them before Christmas eve so. Maybe that's not right either, so I think I will keep the gifts and give them, on the right day this year.
When my mother visited my brother and his girlfriend in France, this summer, she claimed they had a easter tablecloth on the table. Yellow, with easter decorations. They had tried to make everything look nice, when my mother and two of my mum's friends came to visit. But obviously, none of them are very good at decorating. They are more sweet than good, when it comes to this. But like my mother said; it's not the important thing either. Although, she did feel a bit sad about it, thinking that it was maybe the only nice tablecloth they had. Easter decorations doesn't really fit in the middle of summer. So I think I know, what I will buy them this year. Lets just hope they are not as free spirited and willing, to use a Christmas tablecloth during summer.
And naturally, everyone are buying a lot of things for my brother's baby girl; Madeleine. So that's a spoiled one. They visited not too long ago and had the baby with them. And my brother and his girl, sacrificed day and night to pet with this little thing. And she had vitamins, milk bottles cleaned in holy water, baby perfume, ointments, bathing products, nail clippers, special baby water, teddys on a string and gods know what this baby didn't have. And she had a giraffe too, because all newborn French babies get a giraffe.
They also had special rules. The baby was not allowed to watch television, they obviously assumed that babies are very interested in TV. And no plastic toys. And they always wrote down on a calendar, whenever she ate and how much she ate. There were a billion things to do, when she needed new diapers. And I believe they also collected her used diapers, to keep as a memory. -"Look, another used diaper, lets glue it in the diaper book". When they left, my mother found some used diapers, she would cling it to her chest and cry a little; saying she hoped they would teach her Norwegian. She will be pampered with a lot of attention, that's for sure.
While home in the cold north, my brother and his girl recommended a movie to me. Scary movie of course, as I adore scary films. It's called "Cabin Fever". So I went and got myself this one, but I haven't seen it yet. When they were home, we saw a movie that I had already seen, one which I thought would be suitable, for my mother and my brother's girl. Because both of them get very easily scared. The film I picked, out of my dreadful collection of horror, was "Wrong Turn". It's entertaining and quite nerve wrecking, although they did get scared. And my brother claims that I'm the last person, that should be picking films for others to see. But go see "Wrong Turn", it's fun and doesn't have a lot of killings in it. It's really a comedy ;)
In comments someone recommended to me, a Japanese scary one, called "Audition". I have also bought this one. And I will give feedback on it, when I have seen it. If you have a scary film recommendation for me, please do tell me. Because if I haven't seen them, I will definitely check them out.
Everywhere on the net, I see links to the web browser called Firefox. I use Explorer, with the pop-up killer and Norton as well as Ad-Watch. So I wonder, what's suppose to be so great about Firefox? If someone here use it, maybe they could inform me.
Which Jelly Belly flavor are you?
