sunny on the inside
Yes, you caught me. I didn't write anything yesterday. My aim is to write everyday. Sometimes its difficult. Maybe because I don’t know who my audience is. Or rather, that my audience is rather mixed. In the end I'm mostly writing this for myself, and yet that is a lame excuse because one doesn’t need to write to oneself. I can just think my thoughts and never put them into words, much less onto the internet. But writing is communication; I feel the need to connect. I'm just not sure who I'm connecting to.
Two questions asked to me at the market today:
1. When purchasing pistachios: "Roasted or fried?" (fried?? yeah, I know the dutch fry everything.)
2. When purchasing oranges: "For eating or drinking?" (I guess a reasonable question, even though it sounded funny. Most Dutch people speak English, yet most do not speak it perfectly.)
I felt kinda sick today and didn’t leave the house until after 4. Which was a mistake because it was a beautiful warm and sunny day today. Time to make dinner and maybe have a long bath. Not much of a Saturday night I guess, but every night is like Saturday night to me now!
