My list...

2007-07-25T09:51:00Z

It has been ages since I've posted and as I am rubbish at posting pictures, I can only give you my list in writing.

Thinking of men I could do, anywhere, anytime, anyplace made me realise it has been 2 years since you know what and making up my list had my hormones raging. So here goes, number one is my absolute number one, the rest can come by whenever they like.

1. James Purefoy
2. Roy Dupuis (but only as Michael Samuelle in La Femme Nikita)
3. Tim Daly
4. John Taylor from Duran Duran (the Notorious look)
5. Trevor Eve (as Peter Boyd form Waking the Dead)
6. David Boreanaz
7.Gerard Butler
8.Viggo Mortensen
9. Hugh Jackman
10. Hein Vergeer (former Dutch iceskating champion)

Paulien has satellite television, she gets the fun channels like E and ... tadaaa BBC 4! Which means I get to see and/or record/own/see again James' Beau Brummell!

Type your cut contents here.

The weekend wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. With temperatures rising to 30 it was a bit hot and while the kids were watching the World Cup, I was catching up on my literature, that is, trashy Harlequin novels. Hey, if I can't have an exciting love life, at least I can read about it!

Saturday, one of my cousins turned 50 and he had invited (almost) every long lost and found relatives. It was good seeing family I probably hadn't seen in about 10 years. I even recognized most of them and we got to catch up on all the new and old gossip and stuff.

Friday, my new cell phone arrived in the mail! I have now entered a new stage in my life with a proper phone which can take pictures, make small movies, e mail, download and all of the other stuff I'm forgetting. It came with a manual the size of an average dictionary and we have already had good fun with it. I am a little concerned about my youngest son (6) though, he could only think of taking pictures of his bare bum and showing them to his brother and he couldn't stop laughing about them. Much to his disappointment I've erased them, but I will have to check the phone regularly, just in case...

Why??

The day before yesterday I saw him again. The man I fell for a year ago. The first man I fell for after my breakup. And he looked good..

A few months ago I made the mistake of sleeping with him. Once. And it wasn't good. It wasn't horrible or terrible, but a bit awkward and uneasy. The fact that we were both maybe a little bit drunk probably didn't help. Anyway, it pretty much ruined everything there was between us. Before, we could flirt, laugh, talk, mail, after, we don't even say hello when we bump into each other.

It had been a few months since I saw him and I thought I was pretty much over him. But then, last monday, we kinda ran into eachother and the butterflies and the stomachaches and all the feelings I thought I didn't have anymore were back. Stupid me! Why would this time be any different? Why did I think I could fool myself into thinking that it was only something physical? I know myself; I don't fall in love easily, but when I do I fall deep and long-lasting. And always with someone who isn't half as much into me as I am with him.

Stupid, stupid me. How come, some women can go from one relationship to another and I can't even make it past a one night stand? What's wrong with me, or rather what's wrong with him? Stupid him, f*ck him!

You Belong in Dublin

Friendly and down to earth, you want to enjoy Europe without snobbery or pretensions.
You're the perfect person to go wild on a pub crawl... or enjoy a quiet bike ride through the old part of town.

What European City Do You Belong In?

Another weird one! I filled this one out twice, with the same answers and the first time, my crew consisted of Miss Holly Cole and hmelizabeth2! The second time my crew expanded and I got off with a lot (A LOT) more money!?

Dublin? Never would have thought about Dublin! The bike ride is all wrong though. I hate cycling!

Having been without a "significant other" for 3 years and subsequently having been without someone to wake up next to for the same 3 years (apart from the one time about 6 months ago when I was drunk and he was really too good to be true), I have replaced all men in real life for a current total fantasy about Mr. Dashingly Handsome James Purefoy.

Yesterday, at work, I printed a picture of him and stuck it on the counter I was working from. Helped me get through the day. Then, when I got home and went to bed, I put the picture next to me, which helped me get to sleep (no dreams unfortunately). Next stop for the picture will be on the fridge, where I keep my selection of fine men.

Today, back at work, I've been back and forth on LJ, the Imdb and jamespurefoy.com, looking up pictures and getting my James-fix. To top it, I have just inserted Resident Evil in the dvd-player (because, even when playing bad, he's is still totally irresistible) and after he's killed I have Blessed (crap movie), a Knight's Tale (good movie) and George and the Dragon (ok movie) lined up to help me get through the day. Owning a video-shop does have its moments sometimes..

While typing, it is almost the end for poor James on Resident Evil.

Conclusion: Am totally losing it, am in desperate need of boyfriend.

Ps: have any of you ever wondered what, if by chance he would check up on his fan-base, our James would think of us? Imagine reading about yourself as we have (sometimes) been writing about him..(feeling slightly embarrassed right now..)

(Yep, the end of Spence, being eaten up by some...thing..creature..poor Spence..)

I'm giving up on being a smart, educated, independent woman! Instead I'm opting for the lobotomized-blond-is-that-salmon-or-fish-look!

I'm so sick and tired of these creatures, the Paris Hiltons and Jessica Simpsons of this world. And the idea that they apparently have fans is truly and utterly beyond me. I mean, what is their appeal? Apart from the fact that they have more money in the bank than I could ever dream of. Sometimes I feel that it is better to be dumb these days than smart or well scholar-ed.

Question: "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
Answer: "A trophy-wife".

Or something like that. I've never cared too much for feminism, but these dumbo's make me (sometimes) foam at the mouth!

So sweet..

Yesterday, My sons and I went to see "Nanny McPhee". I loved it!! Cried my eyes out at the end, but loved it! Kids liked it too. I guess they were "inspired" by the mischief of the kids in the movie, 'cause when it was time for them to go to bed last night, they put some of their new-found inspiration to use..

Anyway, today has been a pretty good day, just an hour 'till closing-time and I have just had my James-fix for the day, so all's well (for now).

Good night and good luck, I'll be back..

Well, my third entry in 3 days. So far I'm sticking to my plan of posting at least every day in my journal and this time I changed "security" from public to private. Maybe that's what I did wrong the previous times when my journal entries popped up on other people's boards?

I like it here, it gives me a chance to practice on my english, to lust secretly after James Purefoy (who I am getting a bit obsessed with), to share my James-obsession with other "sensible, stylish, classy" James-addicts and to learn more about the way a live journal works.

So far, I don't consider myself to be pretty good at posting here, but I hope that in time, I'll get better at it. "If at first you don't succeed.."

Oeps!

Question: If I leave a comment in my journal, does it then show up in all of my "friends'"journals?

Not that I mind, but I was just a bit surprised to see my entry displayed on another journal.

Hats off, btw, to everybody who has managed to get their own unique style, pictures, emoticons and what have you in to their journals.

For the past hour or so, I've been trying to get pictures in, but with no success so far...
But I'm not giving up, not this time, so wish me luck (or give me some easy to understand advice, please, please, please..).

First Times..

2006-02-16T13:59:29Z

So for everything there's a first time. Then let this be my first time "here". I really have no idea if what I'm doing makes any sense and I don't quite know how "this" works, but I'll try and do my best to get the hang of it.

And that's is where my BIG problem lies; there have been many "first times" for me. I like a lot of things, new things, to try out..and once I have started, I pretty soon will start losing interest and give up on whatever it is I'm doing and start over ( again) doing something new.

So, from the moment I graduated from high-school, I have tried to be: a journalist (but I couldn't get in the school for journalism, so I pretty much gave up on that idea), a secretary (hell, a one-year-course seemed so easy, "everybody" could make that, except me, I really hated that school), a sales-person (without a diploma what else should I do), a librarian (after two years in sales I wanted to get back in to school and move away from the provincial town I grew up in and go to Amsterdam)and a shop-owner (which I have been for the past 5 years and I'm getting pretty tired of it, probably due to the fact that the business isn't doing so well).

Then there have been the flings with various courses, but those were all efforts wasted and that word "wasted" sums up how I sometimes feel about my life; as a missed opportunity.., wasted..

Probably not the most upbeat first entry here, but hey, it's my party..

Most of the time I'm actually quite the positive kind of person, but I guess PMS hits really hard once you're in your thirties, so I'll blame PMS for my current state of mind.

'Till next time..
