We’ve survived three months of 2021 already ya’ll. Isn’t that insane?I think it is!Usually – the wintermonths seem to crawl by for me, with the sun gone and temperatures down…I don’t really come alive until well into April and then suddenly it’s October again. Usually. This year though – the start of the year hasContinue reading “Resolutionizing – March”

Knowing that you don’t know!
When things get really busy at work – I start noticing that I’m doing (even) more work than I’m usually doing by the amount of worrying and procrastinating that finds its way into my day. I wouldn’t yet call it stress, but it’s definitely something resembling the makings of it, I suppose. I’ll suddenly findContinue reading “Knowing that you don’t know!”
Phone-phobia
As an ode to one of my biggest fear: phone calls, I’ve written a beautiful, open and honest poem.The words run deep. You’ll see.(not really, sarcasm is an art!).But it does give a pretty decent overview of how my day went today, with me having to cold-call 5 people in the company because I needContinue reading “Phone-phobia”
The red-green conundrum
Do you ever feel like a weirdo?Cause yaknow. I do. Totally. Often. A lot of the times. Ain’t no one gonna contest that either, I know. Pretty much anyone reading this blog already knows I’m a total basket case. Nuts. Cuckoo.‘Een tik van de molen gehad’ – is how they say it in Dutch (whichContinue reading “The red-green conundrum”
Holiday Grinch
Holidays confuse me, lately. Something I’ve been noticing on an ever increasing scale as I’ve grown up to be a childless, atheist mongrel pretty much disconnected from her entire family (save some exceptions). Rawr. I’m quite possibly a holiday-Grinch, I think. You may not notice this about holidays, if you’re a person with a healthyContinue reading “Holiday Grinch”
Boardgame maniac
Moderation is my nemesis. It is, truly, I’m not even exaggerating this time. Because whether it’s food, or drink, or other pleasures. And whether it’s books, or rubber ducks or boardgames – I have all the makings of a true addicted hoarder. Which – if you find some way of moderating your lack of moderationContinue reading “Boardgame maniac”
The sudoku of life
Life has always been a puzzle for me. And not even one I’m planning to solve anytime soon. Mostly because the ‘how’, the ‘why’ and the ‘what’ of it oftentimes completely elude me. And also because I’m a lazy fuck. It does kind of explain why I’ve always had a pull towards puzzle games though.Continue reading “The sudoku of life”

So I wasn’t ever good enough?Said I didn’t amount to much Told me I wasn’t all that specialWaitWhat wasContinue reading “What was your name again?”
Deathcercise
Have you ever been scared of physical exercise?Like – legit scared in the sense that every fiber of your being knows you’re at serious risk of perishing on the spot? I have. I am. I currently feel the iron fist of death terror clamp around my heart. Has anyone seen my over-acting-drama OSCAR anywhere? StillContinue reading “Deathcercise”
