I'll probably move over to Wordpress some time soon, but for now I'll still post here...a little list of happy things. :)
1) A short while ago I finally received the present I'd made myself for finishing my on-the-side training. It deserves a post of its own, but here's a teaser...the prettiest packaging I've seen so far:
2) I babysitted the cutest, cuddliest, purringiest (hm...) cats you could imagine for a few days, which was great - I can't have my own (allergies, bleh), so sometimes 'borrowing' some kitty cuddling from friends is just the thing, plus they were really cute, and I got to be in this lovely flat with a great view and full of great books, and did I mention the cats were really cute?
Anyway, for all my 'pains' in taking care of them, I received a present. A Giant Flying Mug (forget those saucers) which will destroy all the buildings that ruin *my* view. Mwahaha.
I know, it looks so cute and harmless, but just wait for when I unleash its (solar-powered) superpowers!
Here it comes now...watch out!
Arrr! Nom nom nom...(It IS called the Very Hungry Caterpillar...)
Hehehe.
3) I also did something very out of character or out of my comfort zone, whatever - I went and bought myself a miniskirt. Why is this out of character? Because for years and years, I believed I needed to hide my legs. Crazy mindset for a twenty-something, huh? I bought shortish (ie knee length) skirts sometimes and then didn't wear them. Pffff. Then I went out last Saturday in a dress, and looked at myself in mirrors, and decided I was being ridiculous.
So today, off I went and bought myself an equally ridiculous 5€-skirt. Yep, the scarf cost me more...
(I know it's just a black tube and I could SO make it myself, but the thing is, I never do, do I? At least not until I finally find a place to set up my sewing machine...)And the scarf is totally made of WIN - because, lookie, it has two sides! I mean, two differently printed sides! *love*
4) If my SuperMug should fail me, my knitting can still take over..
Die, stupid high-rise!
Or be trapped forever in my yarn-over-labyrinths! Mwaha...Okay, no more coffee. For, hm...well, at least today. :P

Ooh, I'm so happy my happiness seems to be contagious! And I _did_ tell you about the caterpillar monster I'm inventing, didn't I? The Very Hungry Caterpillar looks very nice eating up that high-rise (... not sure if "nice" is the appropriate word here, but you catch my drift). ;)
Can't wait to see that caterpillar monster (and yes, you told me about it, and it sounds great)! I keep thinking about the door-spiders from Unlondon (did they have a specific name? I forgot.) and I'd *so* love to hang a crocheted one in my window...if only I could crochet. Heh. Maybe they will be incentive enough to finally try it out. ;)
Grah, a Very Hungry Caterpillar mug? Whatever I'm getting, it can't be that good!!!!! *faints*
(re. legs: old silly, didn't you show off those legs enough when you were a competition dancer?)
Yeeees, but that wasn't real life, really. Everyone around me was dressed like that. I was hiding in a crowd of same-looking people. Quite a difference.
Although I still AM proud of those pictures. ;)
what a cute lil' caterpillar monster ;-))
...Did you mean the Black Windows? ;)
Yes! Black Windows. Exactly. Thanks. :D
