Bother

Mood: doing ok.. considering…
Listening to: Jan is watching fast downward skiing on tv.. and I don’t have music on… wish I did… Hang on…
Listening to: Vide Cor Meum (the Hannibal Opera thingie from Hannibal that was in the Hannibal movie… <.< )

The unemployment office is still at it. They insist on handing me money… which I’m fine with.. if I didn’t have to pay it all back when they finally get their thumbs out their asses and DO something about it. Yes, I’m pissed off… I’ve told them threee times now.. WHEN are they gonna straighten things out??? It would be easier if they could just give me a number to the people who dish out money so that I could call them and say “STOP EEET!”

Another reason for me being all twitchy and irratable might be because my hormones are all over the place… pretty soon that time of the month…. AND ON TOP OF THAT I DECIDED THAT I WOULD TRY TO QUIT SMOKING!!!! *rawr*
It’s day four now and I’m all GIMME SOMETHING FOR THE EEEEDGE!!! D:
My boyfriend is also trying to quit, but he’s going to do the a little at a time approch rather than the cold turkey, which I did… Maybe I should just… once a day…. like right after dinner… that’s when the craving is worse… Although, I wouldn’t say that I smoke all that much anyways.. I have on avarage like 8 a day… and if I cut it down to one a day… that wouldn’t be too bad…would it???? And at least I know I can go four days without anything… I just need to find something to chew, I think.. something to occupy my mouth… lol (And I urge all the dirty minds in the world NOT TO GO THERE!)
I’ll keep you posted on my progress and setbacks, cause I know there will be some… Maybe I should take up drinking instead… at least I’ll be well hydrated… unless I drink g&t which I intend….or Jägermaister… vodka…

Anyways… thus far I’m doing well… Like I said, I’ll keep you posted…

*huggles*

P.S: Congrats, Obama, for finally taking office… :3
I was listening to the radio the other day, 24 hours after you had been inogurated (sp?), and the guy on the radio said “24 hours, eh? *small pause* I can’t see any change yet…” and I was thinking… Bush took 8 years to fuck up the country… give the guy a minute… jeesh…
True, there hasn’t been any major change YET, but I think it’s coming… and for the better…

There’s a bright golden haze on the meddoooow~~~

Mood: Somewhat relaxed
Listening to: Hart to Hart on the tv… it’s an old tv-series… 80’s… Loved that show… :3

Good day..
I got home from the unemployment office and the meeting with my new case worker went ok. I got the answers I needed, and I hope that this time she’ll manage to get the money people to have a look at my case..
The course, for me, is over, it seems. Unless I want to go there and not get payed… which I don’t want to do, seeing as I won’t get payed… And basically… I don’t need them to yell at me for not doing things their way.
The reason the course follow up is over is because the unemployemtn office only get so much money a year, and they don’t know how much money they get the next year, so they had to stop me getting money etc. because they don’t know how much they’ll get… But I’m guessing that there’ll be a new course for me in the near future… The joy…
On the other hand I guess this fuck up in the history of fuckupery, isn’t such a big fuck up after all… so I guess I should call off my dogs and stop griping when it comes to them…. but they are such an easy target, seeing as they do so many things wrong… I was reading in the news yesterday that a woman who was unable to work at all couldn’t get disability from them because they said she was fit to work, even though a handfull of doctors had told her, and documented it very well that she couldn’t… she was told by the unemployment people to go to social services or wellfare or some shit like that…

Well… I guess that’s all I have to say right now.
I’ve been standing outside, waiting for the bus for 40 min. I couldn’t be bothered to walk up Vandug Hill… even though it’d take me just as long to walk up… I just didn’t feel like it.. And f I had walked, I wouldn’t be able to read Watchers by Dean R. Koontz… I love that book… even though I’m not done yet… *sighs* I want a Golden Retriver… female.. and I want to call her Neela… and I want a cat… actually two cats… Forman Miao and Totoro…
But Jan don’t want cats… and he wants a rottie again… Actually… I really want a Corgi… <3

KAWAIII~~~~~~~~~

Well, I’ll probably write again when I have more to talk about… so…

Baibai for now

Here’s to hoping….

Mood: Somewhat ok, I think
Listening to: Nothing… well.. the tv… some chick being all ZOMG, I’M SO SAAAD! D: *cry* about something… *shrugs*

Hello :3

Tomorrow I’ll be visiting with my brand new caseworker… and here’s to hoping she’ll manage to clean up the unholy mess the last one made of things…
I’m hoping she can answer with sertainty if I’m really done with the course follow up or not… that she’ll be able to move the money problems along and all that..

Anyways.. I’ll be giving you an update when I get home tomorrow…

AND I’m trying to add pictures to my posts now… Camilla is graciously trying to talk me through it… hehehe
Oh, I see…. my server thingie or whatever is against me…. it won’t upload my pictures.. so now I have to wait for the next version to come out, it seems… unless Camilla has an answer for this too…
*waits*
WEIWEI!!! IT WORKED!!!
But I have to go though Photobucket… but that’s not like the worst thing that could happen… XD
I is happy nao….

XD

I really think…

Mood: Slightly pissed
Listening to: Nothing at the moment…

Good morning.
I went to the unemployment office today to clear some things up… Like if I were to go to the follow-up course, if I have to pay back the money the unemployment office over payed me… twice…
So I went there, talked to some guy, and I don’t think he understood me. He went to talk to some other person who came back and I don’t think he understood me either. How hard is it to understand that I was going to a follow-up couse before christmas and I want to know if I still attend the course, because it said on the note I got from them back in August last year that it was 4 weeks course and 6 months follow-up… and it doesn’t take a genius to figure out that august to december is NOT 6 months… So they said I didn’t have a course to go to.. even though I think they misunderstood everything… so I didn’t go today. If I get yelled at got it, I’ll blame them. The follow-up thingie is supposed to end in february or march… They need to figure things out down there… seriously… So the guy finally said that I had a meeting with my caseworker next week to figure everything out. Oh… and I now have yet a new caseworker… *sighs*
I showed the guy the money thingie and told him that I was sure I got too much money from them, and he looked at the email the person I talked to about it way back in november of last year wrote to the person who was going to figure out of I had gotten too much money or not,  and just handed it back and said that I had to talk with my caseworker about it, after I had asked if I should talk to her about it. He didn’t even tryyyyy…

I’m so disappointed, yet not surprised at all.  I just really want this over and done with…

Over to something a little more fun… :3
Camilla and I went shopping on tuesday… I finally got two pairs of pants, really cool XD and I love them deeply…
And I got new Hello Kitty socks. Bright pink/black, bright pink, black and black/white striped, black/red and black with red hearts… and I got leg warmers… I kinda look like a dancer now… and some how so very not…
And I got a bamboo steamer… I so wanted one for so many years… and finally I found one.. XD AAAND chinese five spice… So now I can start making my peking duck XD
I got almost everything I need… The only thing I’m missing is vinegar, dry cherry and honey… I’ve also decided that I’ll be making the over-long-period-of-time duck… It’ll take me hours and hours, but I bet it’ll be worth it…
AND Camilla and I were followed by Totoro yesterday. No matter where we went, there he was.
and if I knew how, I’ll paste a picture of him here…. but since I still don’t know how to do it, it’ll have to wait.

Edit: I KNOW HOW NAAAAAAAAAAAO XD

But now I’m going to play me some Zomg… I really like that game.. even though some people are ruining it for everyone else.. but hey.. I guess this is true with all online games…

Tata…

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Mood: Happy
Listening to: Josh Groban – Little Drummer Boy

Helloooo…
Yes, I know I haven’t written in ages, but it’s been like christmas and I’ve had stuff to do… like… clean house, make dinners, clean a little more, decorate the house and the tree…. and all that was before christmas… AND I had to work…
But now I’m just relaxing, enjoying my free time and watch tv a lot… I have to say there are crap things on tv during the holidays… crap movies and nothing much to watch… although, sometimes…. like the other day they had both Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire AND Lord of the Rings, the two towers…. I watched The Two Towers up untill Haldir got killed… Still pisses me off that Peter Jackson put him at Helms Deep… He shouldn’t even be there… *growls*
What really bugged me about them showing The Two Towers is that… well… yesterday, the day after TTT, they didn’t air Return of the King…. And I was really expecting to see it…
I guess I have to wait… And I do have the extended addition on dvd, so I can watch it whenever I want, really… :3

So…. for christmas this year I got…
From the kids: Glasses with spoons… Latte glasses…but since I don’t drink latte I’ll use them for chocolate milk XD
From my mum: A shirt, black, REALLY nice and an angora cardigan… I loooove the cardigan… (of course it’s not ALL angora.. it got some other stuff in the mix too, but I still looooove it), and sake glasses with the picture of an asian lady on them… <333333
My brother: the dvd I wanted :3 Takes too long to explain… It’s kinda like a cartoon about your body, how different parts work, how your imune system works, etc… used to air the show on tv when I was a kid…
From my dad: MONEY XD
From Jan and the kids: A really lovely necklace and matching earrings…
From my aunt and uncle: A really cool necklace :3
Fram Ellie: A cat-a-pult… and a penguin named Percy.. he came pre-named…
I think that’s it…

Usually when New Years eve gets closer I get retrospective and start thinking about what I’ve acheeved… I’m really not like that this year, for some reason. I don’t think I would have done anything different… True, I still don’t have a full time job, but with the echonomy and all that, it’ll get harder to get a full time job, so my part-part time job is just fine for now. And I do love working there, even though some costumers have some really lame demands… I shan’t go any further…
The only regret I do have is trusting the unemployment service… Oh, I didn’t tell you… they fucked up… AGAIN!!!!
They AGAIN gave me money I shouldn’t have… And they STILL haven’t figured out about the money mess from before… or maybe they have and just not told me… but how do they expect me to pay them back if they don’t tell me about it… I’m not a mind reader… yet…
So yeah… they have some serious problems and they need to get them fixed for next year because with the echonomy problems, more and more people will be unemployed, and they’ll need unemployment… and if the unemployment sercive is unable to provide the correct service, the shit will hit the fan and they will have major problems…
But then it’s not my problem.. and since they let this happen, serves them right…

Well, I’ll try to write again very soon.

Here’s hoping for a peaceful year to come…

Happy New Year

Lene

It was a few nights before Christmas, and all through the house…

the sound of keys tapping from Lene, not having posted anything for ages and ages…

Yes, sorry about that. I don’t know what’s come over me.. hehehe…
But I’m here now, and I’ll do my best to update everyone.
So… since last time I’ve had some help from Camilla to update my blog, sp hopefully I won’t get any ping-backs and other stuff… so hopefully I can write WOW without being pinged to kingdom come.. well… we’ll see now, won’t we…

And I’ve been working… well.. my usual blog day, thursday, was cancelled due to indifference… which is also why I didn’t go to the course.. :3
I just didn’t want to listen to them go on and on and on anymore. Surely, they have to realize just how annoying it is. Especially when I have a JOB to do…

Oh… tomorrow Jan and I are driving to Gardermoen to pick up Camilla.. she’s coming home for Christmas… XD

Speaking of Christmas… I can’t remember the last time I felt such excitement over a holiday. It’s not just the presents.. lol.. but it’s the whole togetherness thing. It’s the first time, ever since I moved in with him, that we have the whole of Christmas eve together… without him having to go to work to check things out and stuff… that’s 10 + years… I’ve spent a few of them at home with my mother, but they don’t count, cause he would have been working those christmas’. Sp yeah… I don’t care if I don’t get anything what so ever… I just want to be here with the people I love.

And I talked to my dad the other day… he said that he wouldn’t be buying me any gifts this year, and that’s fine with me… he’s putting money on my account instead… so I can get whatever I want… and I know what I’m getting too… XD A panda… not a real one… but a squishable one…
I was checking out lolcats as per usual, and saw a link to another website… where they had huge squishable stuffies… and I just fell in love… It was a toss up between a cow and a panda for some time, but I want a panda… besides… I have a cow already… although it’s not huge, it is cuddly and soft…

And I’ve totally submerged myself in the new game they have on gaia… ZOMG… it’s actually quite fun…

So… I don’t know if there is anything else to update you all on…

Let me say, in closing, that I hope you all have a wonderful pre christmas time… that you don’t stress over getting things done in time… lord knows I don’t.. even though I should a little… hehe… but there is always time…

Be good to each other… and keep spreading that christmas joy… watching the news lately, I feel that it’s something not many people are doing right now.

Lene

I won’t say anything that’ll make my post get pinged… *skert*

Mood: Good, actually
Listening to: the radio… don’t know who it is, but at least it’s not R.E.M

Good day….

I really don’t know what i’m gonna do with the unemployment office… well, the whole shebang, really…
I honestly don’t know how many people at the course who aren’t getting their money, but today I’ve counted three, and there are more out there.. My brother is one of them. He’s been sick for months now, had both ear drums operated on and so on. Well, the unemployment office wanted a statur report on him like a month back or so, and he called his doctor and she said she’d send it right away, and she did… but it’s 4 weeks later now, and the unemployemnt office claim they havne’t gotten it yet.
Most likely they got it and put it in an office to a person who’s sick or something…
My brother said he’d go to the doctors today and get the papers again so that he can deliver it to the unemployment office in person. Poor thing… he got no money to buy food, and his dog is sick 🙁
I told him yesterday that if he didn’t get any money from them that he shouldn’t worry about me not getting a christmas gift… I’ll live…. but I really hope he gets money… lol
He always gives me cool things :3
And me, the big lous… I FORGOT HIS BIRTHDAY!!!! It’s unforgivable D:
It was on November 30th… and I forgot!!! D: D: D: DX *flail* So I feel muchly rotten about that even though he said not to worry about it when I talk to him yesterday… *sighs* Lene is a bad girl… 🙁

On the plus side… I’ve only got one present left now, and it’s for Jan… and I don’t know what to get him… I have been playing with some ideas, but I still don’t know if it’s the right idea… We’ll see if I’m gonna get him that or something else. And I’m not telling anyone what it is… Jan might visit my sight and find out.. and that’ll totally spoil the surprise..

Well, I’d better pack it in… I know I keep telling you guys that I’ll type more when I get home… but I never do… which means I’m really lazy…
*turn around… bright eyes… every now and then I fall apart….* *pose*
Oh, but I thin I should put something in here… I found something on the internet that cracked me up… but I don’t know how to add images here… D:
And I’ve REALLY tried… I’ll try more when I get home…

See yous laters…

Lene :3

Remember, remember, the first of december…

OK, so I know it’s like the wrong month… and day… but it’s only for fun…

Anyways… the reason I write today, which is not a thursday, is because I’ve had an update, and I’m just wondering if things are working like they should….
And for all those who don’t have snow yet… I DOOOO… LOADS AND LOADS!! It’s been snowing AAAAAAAALL day…. XD XD
*prances*

And it’s December first… only 23 days till I’m sitting on the couch, ripping paper off my gifties… <3
I can’t wait… XD

Weeeeow

After the last blog post I’ve been pinged from here to kingdom come… well… my blog site, not me personally…
I’ve been trying to figure out why… and just a few seconds ago I figured it out…
I got pinged by World of Warcraft’s site thingie.. and I figured out that it was because of my wow in the heading… so… I’ll never use wow in my headings again…
AND I got a ping from dell because of me mentioning spell check…
Lord knows how much I’ll get pinged now… I hope nothing because it’s REALLY annoying and I just delete the fucking posts anyway.

Have a nice one XD

Lene

Wow… time flies

Good morning, ladies and germs… (Yes, I’ve been watching M*A*S*H)

I’m really sorry I missed last thursday, but I was working, and I was totally pooped when I got home… Much like I am right now, but I had to go to the course, so there you have it. Well, I didn’t HAVE to have to since it’s by choice now, but hey… it’s money.. XD
I can’t believe that it’s almost the first of December… I’ve only got three gifts down… I won’t tell you guys what it is… seeing as… well… my mom, dad and brother might be having a look-see at my blog, and then the surprise will be gone when they open their gifties… OH, I forgot… I got Camilla one too XD
I DEFINATELY won’t say what she’s getting… heh heh heh…

I had a terrible dream last night… I dreamt that someone had stolen my bank card… D: DE HORROR!!!!!

Speaking of horrors… Last thursday I was thinking about watching The Strangers when I got home… I started the online watching thingie and hoped it would be fully loaded when I got back from work… but no such luck.. And watching a movie in pieces is no way of watching a movie… although, that was how I watched The Da Vinci Code.. I still don’t think I’ve seen all of it… I’m missing the very beginning. I have yet to see Stilas/Silar/Silva/Albino dude kill the old guy… Oh… that’s a movie spoiler if you haven’t read the book or watched the movie… sorry…

Omg, it was so stressfull at work yesterday… and it was all my fault.. well, not really… I didn’t have to get all stressy, but the computer wouldn’t work because I couldn’t spell… XP
I was trying to find the number for a decorative star thingie with lights to hang in your window, but someone has thrown away the box it came in, so it was a slight bother. But on the computer you can type in for instance “star” and all the star related items comes up. However, when I did that, the star I was looking for wasn’t there. So I had to be spesific… Well, needless to say, people started to gather round the register to pay for their things, and I was still trying to find the darn star.. in my desperation I tried one last thing… I cut out one of the s’s in the word, and suddenly, there it was.
And LAST thursday it was someone else who was kinda stressy. One of the hairdressers at the mall came in to the store to get a gift, and right after I had wrapped it an alarm started to ring out. She looked at me and said “It’s the fire alarm” and I looked back at her “it is? I haven’t heard the fire alarm here before” and she nodded, walked rather quickly out the store and started telling people to get out of the mall because if was the fire alarm sounding. The lady in the store across from my store looked at me and shrugged her shoulders, and the pet shop guy was totally indifferent. But the guy who used to have the store next to ours was there, and he said it wasnt a fire alarm, so we didn’t have to worry. But the hair dresser didn’t hear that, I think; she ran back to the hairdresser shop and told the girls, I guess. I looked at the lady across from me and asked her if she minded looking after the store while I went to inform information about the alarm…. and so I did. Stood there in line for about 3 min. before the haridresser came and told the information about the alarm (it’s not my fault it was a line there and me being too polite…) Turns out it was the alarm in the pharmacy that had gone off… why, we do not know… but it stopped all on its own…

Anyways… I should stop now… But I have to come back here when I get home, because the spell check don’t work here.. and I HAVE to do spell check… I just know there are things misspelled here…
So… see yous later :3
