Happy Birthday!
Sorry to hear about your birthday money, I hope you’ll still get to have nice day in spite of it!
Scatterbrained and friendly optimist. Always happy to give my (unasked for) opinion :)
Pardon my rambling and broken English, I know I often sound like an alien trying to impersonate a human being.

I crochet little animals for friends and family.
Unasked, most of the time :)
When I was a kid our family went on vacation to the US. Everyone kept asking if I was Dutch, which I thought was German (Deutsch).
So I kept correcting them, saying I was Netherlandish :)
Worrying what other people think of me.
I know I shouldn’t care, but it’s hard not to.
Arriving home with my newborn son. It was the first moment when it really sank in that I’m a parent and we have to take care of this tiny little thing.
It wasn’t a warm feeling but more of a fuuuuuck! What do we do? What do we do?! feeling. The enormity of the responsibility just overwhelmed me.
I somehow got through it and the post-natal care lady that visited a few hours later really helped with grounding the situation.
Anyway, it’s not a crazy situation for most of you. But for me it really felt like a “I can’t believe this is happening!” situation.
“Political ideologies, an introduction” by Andrew Heywood, is available for free online.
It was required reading for my history study in uni about ten years ago. This seems to be a newer edition. It’s quite a read, but it covers a lot of isms in a generally unbiased manner.
Yawn. If you pronounce it while sleepy, you actually yawn. And the yawn will sound like the word yawn.
Maybe I’m just sleepy, but I like the word :)
Garbage in is garbage out
I recently saw this one in the Mauritshuis in The Hague.
Really nice painting, and a great collection too!
