We call him ‘murder cat’ as he always looks so pissed off, sleeping in the most weird places and it seems like due to his angry look, he is plotting our demise constantly. Behold; our own little Garfield!
And here below, as you can see, he is very busy plotting!

Unfortunately I live on a busy road and sometimes there isn’t parking space for my little Betty in the small, not ever busy road next to our scrappy house, therefore I sometimes am forced to park on the busy road. Unfortunately my passenger side mirror got knocked about a few times, but never really seriously, we always managed to fix Betty right up.
Previous Monday I had quite a shock though, I, once again, was forced to park my precious little Betty on the busy road once again the Sunday before, this time with the drivers’ side to the road. Some complete and utter twat (I swear better in Dutch but as my blog is in English), went so fast and so close past my wonderful Betty that he/she/they knocked off her drivers’ side mirror off completely! I couldn’t find back the glass/mirror and the casing was just hanging to the side like a limb arm…
I was devastated, */rant mode on* I lost count of the times they trashed my mirrors but it was never as bad as this. I even park sensible; I am so far on that damn pavement that it is fucking easy to go around it is un-fucking-believable! I am nearly positively sure that it’s those fucking bus drivers who just push those damn busses through a to narrow passage and just refuse to wait 2 seconds until the car coming towards them passed. They should be fucking strapped up vandalising people’s property like that! Everybody who is vandalising other’s peoples property should be fucking locked up and their houses destroyed in the mean time! */rant mode off*
I am terribly sorry for this ‘rant’ but god, I had to get it out, and England just really is full with the rudest people I have ‘encountered’ as I never met them. Luckily one of Liam’s friends is good with cars, we went to a car graveyard today, picked up a new mirror for £10 and fixed Betty right up, she is as good as new. Unlucky for me though the little ‘never busy’ road was filled up with parked cars once again and Betty is, as we speak, parked on the busy road…

I am definitely too much into reading books, mostly fantasy books. I just finished the third book of the Inheritance cycle, only to discover that another book has to be written! I already knew towards the end that he just wasn’t able to finish the story without a really rubbish ending and I really hoped he wouldn’t do just that. I am disappointed that the fourth book still has to be written (so another 2/3 years waiting, perhaps even longer!) but very happy that Christopher did not rush off the ending.
I waited for nearly 2 years for this book to come out; when I finished the second book, Eldest, the writer only just started writing the third (and at that point; last) book and when finally finished in September 2008, Liam got it for me as a Christmas present, and now I have to wait again, for another book to be written… I have to confess that I am not a very patient person, and this is driving me near my limits…
I heard the movie Eragon (The first book) was rubbish so I am not even trying to watch it until Christopher finally finishes the last book. I want to read all the books before I watch the movie(s). However, if you wanted to read the book but have been put off by watching the movie, please get yourself a copy of these books because they are just about the best read I have ever had, their brilliant.
I received the first book of The Black Magicians trilogy from Liam for valentines, as he knows how much I love to read. I have to say, next to Christopher (and a few others), Trudy is now one of my favorite authors! The way she writes just made it impossible for me to put down the book and do some of the household or even go to bed, it is fantastic! If you love fantasies, I really advise that you get the Black Magician Trilogy by Trudy Canavan, it is a brilliant read, I was unable to put down these books and I know it will do the same to everybody, as long as they are willing to open their mind and wonder into a world of fantasy.
I had a look on Trudy’s website and it is her who inspired me to do a few short stories, her advise for writers is to write every day, and as it is one of my goals in live, to write a book, I made myself look at my blog and bow my head in shame, I really do have to make more entries, every day if possible and in the meanwhile work on a nice, little short story which has been going around in my head for ages. I will post it when or if I finish it, so comments are most, most welcome!
Ah… reading… I really get dragged into the whole story, the surroundings and the characters, everything, if the story is good enough. Liam thinks I am silly as it is only ‘a book’, but when I get into things, I laugh when it is funny, I am happy when something amazing for my favorite character(s) happens and I cry when something bad happens. That is how I know when I am reading a brilliant damn good book; if it can sway my emotions and mood, and I have to say, Trudy and Christopher did a fantastic job and they are both in my top 5 writers!
