As was pointed out to me yesterday during a job interview… luckily they had a sense of humor about it and actually called me a few hours later saying I’m through to round 2 which consists of only me and another guy.
Fingers crossed.
Probably not known by many until you discover all the projects this creative powerhouse was involved in,
Jean Giraud a.k.a. Moebius has passed away last weekend at the age of 73.
Rejoice. It’d be interesting to take a peek into the future and see where we’re at the next time this date comes along.
Yay, we survived the parade. Or more specifically the weather. Yesterday was the big carnaval’s parade in Heerlen, and about two hours before we were heading out it first started to rain like mad and then a torrent of snow started coming down. We were half tempted to stay at home but seeing as the kids were already dressed up and eager to go we braved it anyway.
Luckily once we got there it eventually eased off and everyone had a good time. I must say, having a cute 2 year old is awesome in the candy department as they all came up to Amy to give her lots while she was standing there waving and dancing around cute as a button.
Eve has developed her preferred sledding technique, which involves laying down on her back and holding on for dear life. Her head is sticking out though, so it’ll drag behind the sled through the snow, causing her to laugh like mad all the way down while snow is spraying up. Unfortunately I only have a picture of her at the bottom of the hill (the one above here), would have loved to get the whole thing on video. As you can imagine Kate and me where damn near falling over laughing our ass off.
Amy hates the cold and usually goes in turtle mode as soon as we walk out the door, sticking her head in her coat, or even better ours. But for some reason ever since we gave her new gloves she thinks snow is awesome and she runs around smacking it. From one heap to the next, smack smack, big grins, next heap, smack smack. Weird kid.
Good fun. :)
Go figure, everyone’s falling on their ass with the ice and snow outside and I have to make an epic nosedive on the snow- and ice free gallery of our building. We ordered pizza last night, and when it finally arrived I was in a hurry to dive in, so I grabbed the boxes, closed the door and started to walk in when I remembered we’d also ordered a bottle of cola. Put everything down and opened the front door again but the delivery guy was sprinting off in the distance as he was already late for others.
So I decided to sprint down after him, full speed, on my socks. Which went ok, and insanely fast, until I tripped and fell. And not fell as in stumbling down, but no, hard nosedive at full speed. So now I’m limping around the house with bruises on foot, knee, elbow, shoulder and hands along with all those scraped in varying degrees.
Oh and the coke? I simply called and they delivered it 5 minutes later… yeah I should have done that right away.

And it looks like it’ll stay for at least this week. I hope. The snowgods sure took their time though.
