What a day. We took Värtti to the vet because she seemed to be sick. It turns out that she has a urinary tract infection for which she got antibiotics. Poor thing. She was already much better after we got home from the vet.Considering that I had nothing planned for the weekend, I've been really busy. Yesterday I went snowshoeing with mom. We went ( Read more... )

I've been suffering from writer's block lately. I know what I want to write about, but the words refuce to come. So maybe not actually a block, but more of not being able to express myself like I want to. Maybe writing in Finnish would help. Sometimes English just makes me tongue tied.Taidan vain kirjoitella mitä sylki suuhun tuo. Muuten tästä ei ( Read more... )

In Finnish. Kissanpentu onnistui melkein tiputtamaan karttapallon mun päähän (kirjahyllyn päältä). Se ois sattunut. Onneks se tippu vaan vähän mun käden päälle. Aiemmin päivällä se tiputti yhen valokuvan alas ja sen lasi särkyi. Eilen kaaduin portaissa. Onneksi lensin vain yhden askeleen verran alaspäin ja ehdin ottaa käsillä vastaan, niin en ihan ( Read more... )

Uni started once more. I somehow managed to stay awake through my first lectures, after which I went home because I wasn't feeling so well. I've had a small fewer since Monday, but it's getting better. For some reason lately when I've had a flu my body temperature doesn't go up, but down. On Monday it was 35,1C. It's weird. It can't really be ( Read more... )

The pollen season is really awful this Spring. I don't want to leave the house. It's that bad, even with meds. Last night I had a fever when I got back home, but as far as I know that's not caused by my allergies. I did have a flu before my allergies started. The symptoms of both were so similar so I can't be sure, if I got over the flu or not. ( Read more... )

I installed Steam in Linux with Wine. It was pretty easy. If I want to play games through Steam, I'd have to install them to the Linux Steam version even though I already have them on my Windows Steam version, so I'll probably do the double installation with the smaller games only. Games should run faster in Windows anyway and it kinda defeats the ( Read more... )

I've been sick with the flu since last Thursday now. I've had a small fever on and off for the past three days. I watched Moulin Rouge from TV the other night and I tried singing along to some of the songs, but I had to stop because I sounded so funny. My nose was so clogged up that I sounded like Nylon beat x10. Today my nose hasn't been running ( Read more... )

We were talking about old computer games with MM the other day. In a fit of nostalgia I tried to find some of my old favorites on Youtube. I wrote about two of my favorites (from the black and white era) in my blog in 2008. I'm still itching to play Scarab of Ra again.

Today has been a bit weird. I once again got a flu now that the temperature went over +30 C. This is now the third time that I've gotten a flu during a heat wave this Summer. Apparently heat just doesn't sit well with my body. The heat would be quite uncomfortable enough without the added joy of being sick as well. But this being the third time, I' ( Read more... )

I don't really intend to follow what's going on in pop music, but I watch Voice (Finnish music television) so much that I can't help it. I like watching music videos.
