I'm not even sure what to write about here. I used to write a lot. And I miss it so I thought I would try again and in a blog, no less. I should probably make this post an introductory one! Well, my name is Kat. I'm 25, I live in Groningen, The Netherlands and I am a geek. I live with 4 cats and my awesomely awesome girlfriend, Myr.
Today I am busy trying to lay out Myr's old warhammer armies and then take photos. But as I was doing that, i thought it would be fun to try painting them again. I haven't painted those little figures since the incident that involved yellow paint all over my jeans in the crotch-region. Yeah.
The fridge is also emitting an unfavourable odour so I must not forget about that!
I have lived in Groningen for over two years now. I really like it here. I grew up in Scotland though, and after that and before here, I lived in England where I failed at university and after that I worked in a book shop :D
For christmas my dad bought me a really great digital slr camera so now i have an excuse to take moar photos with it so i can add them to this blog!
So what do I like to do? Well, i love reading, watching tv shows, movies, listening to music, roleplaying with friends, going to fantasy festivals and cooking! I also love camping and walking but right now my legs are being very irritating so I may have to go to the doctor about them. Yay for health insurance.
We had builders last week working on painting the outside of the house and putting some double glazing in. But they haven't been here this week but the scaffolding is still outside. I wish they would come back and take it away.
Anyway, I have the feeling this blog spot is stilted and it doesn't flow very well but that's because my thoughts are bouncing all over the place and I don't write as much as I should. I'm hoping this will improve! Also above is a photo of one of my cats, Blizzard. The reason? He is awesome. He loves licking your face when you are sleeping and is partial to biting your hair.
Tonight I have roleplaying with Myr, and two friends Sipke and Roland. We're playing Pendragon. It's a fun campaign but I can't wait to play moaaaar Call of Cthulu (we play that every sunday with Judith and Sipke) because it's more horror-oriented and I'm really in the story.
Well anyway, if anyone is reading this I commend you for having got this far through what I think is a very boring first post ;)
Grats on your first blogpost.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Cthulhu has two h's in it ;)
And who knows, maybe Pendragon will become more horror-oriented...
Edit: I've become your first follower! Honestly though, it's more out of sheer morbid curiosity then loyalty :P
Hahaha :D Cthulhu, thanks! I had no clue :)
ReplyDeleteentertain meeeeee!!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the blogosphere! Advice of a very slightly more experienced blogger, don't worry about how your blogs read, just write them. I am happy to have had a little slice of Kat in my day - also happy that the bookshop warrants a smiley face :D
ReplyDeleteYou should feel honoured; I never do that.
Yay, welcome to blogging! I only started it last month and I'm loving it (despite having previously thought blogging was just a bit too self-indulgent for me… apparently not!!) It's good to exercise the "writing muscle" again, eh?! Looking forward to some more notes from Groningen :-)
ReplyDeletePS Special request: please can you put up a recipe for poffertjes in English? I bought an electric poffertjes maker really cheaply a couple of months ago, but no recipe & I'd rather have a tried and tested one than a random Google one ;-)
