Sugar Rush

Posted on by

I should be doing tests but I feel drained this very moment and I know exactly why… I’m on a sugar rush… I feel stupid because I’ve just eaten half a carton of Quaker Cruesli while I never eat that stuff plus I normally avoid any kind of sugar. I just couldn’t help myself and had to try the latest kind of Cruesli: coffee, chocolate and speculaas and wow, it’s seriously sweet but delicious *hehe* and seriously expensive too *lol*!

I bought a carton yesterday because I liked the design and so the advertising gimps tricked me into buying it. I feel stupid because I fell for their marketing and branding crap, moreover I fell for those three mouthwatering words: coffee, chocolate and speculaas. The perfect combination to something you’d wish to have on a rainy winter’s day when it’s cold and windy out there and you’re in need of something full of sweet flavours…

Oh and full of sweetness it is! I’m so high on sugar right now that I’m seriously thinking about having a kip… The bittersweet punishment of giving in. I really really needed to get some stuff done today and here I am, OD-ing on flavours: thanks Quaker! *not* Well I guess that’s today’s lesson… In about thirty minutes my favourite TV show starts so I’ll have that kip and will postpone the tests till after the show when I’m all bright again…

Quaker I curse you for tricking me the way you did… (but between you and me: I’m more upset with myself for being such a silly cow *wink*)

*yawn*

Short Update

Posted on by

This week has been hectic so far and I will be happy when it’s Friday night and I will be asleep. Just too much going on at the moment. I promised PE. to test his project for him last Monday and Tuesday and ended up testing today instead. I have been working on some projects myself, I had to send out a parcel today and ended up faffing about with some pain in the A. Customs Declaration that I found on the Royal Mail website last night. I have finally written a long postponed letter and sent it off to the Lowlands and I had to organise piles of paperwork for my interview Friday. I seem to be running out of time and there’s only 24 hours in a day isn’t it?

I’ve written about six long emails to friends who have been waiting for my reply for at least two weeks. I’m blessed with patient friends though so they won’t start nagging because they know what my life can be like at times. Good news is that MvdM. arranged eight tickets to see Amy Winehouse in December if she won’t be too pissed to perform that is. I’m really looking forward to that since it will be my first gig to attend in the UK/London and we’ll be going with a group of people so it’s gonna be fun with a capital F! I’m also slowly recovering from a serious bug that I had for three weeks. I can finally eat and drink again, it’s a very effective way of losing weight if you need to… *hehe*

I have deleted my old blog *yes* and made backups of that old Movable Type installation [3.3.4] so I have a reference still in case this version [4.0] is going to fail on me. So far so good though and I’m not complaining, just yet. My Porsche drive seems to be doing fine after a format. I’ve organised all my stuff in a more efficient way although I still need to burn about another 100 DVDs to archive some clients/files. I’m slowly getting there…
