Party girl

I had been wanting to have a day of light drunkenness on other days than my birthday for years, but I had never gotten around to doing so before. Now I had a rosé sparkling wine that I had never had before. It wasn't that long ago that I first learned about the existence of such a type of wine.

 

 

I wanted to party a month ago, but I was feeling unwell at the time. Now I was also waiting all the time for the nausea to strike.

I had wanted to eat at Amarillo after its menu changed a few months ago. Now, appropriately, there is an offer valid for the month of October, two main courses for the price of one at S-Group restaurants.

At eight o'clock on a Saturday night, Amarillo was full, luckily we had a table reservation. We had to wait over an hour for our food. The flank steak was quite edible. I usually don't dare order steak in a restaurant, because they are too often not tender enough.

There were also too many people at Gloria for my taste right after ten. Even though I had already drunk about 2/3 of the bottle of wine at home and a half glass of wine at Amarillo and then three Caipiroskas at Gloria, I couldn't get drunk. That's what you get when you eat and drink at the same time.

The price of a Caipiroska at Gloria had already gone up since the summer, it now costs 11 euros.

When we were leaving home after 1 am, I started laughing when there was a long line at Jolene's. It wasn't until later that I started to wonder have I even been to Jolene's? What do I have against that bar?

It was raining a little, but luckily it didn't bother me.

 

 

There was no real hangover, but of course made my heart pound so hard that it was difficult to sleep. But I didn't have nausea.

Now there are negotiations for changes at these restaurants, hopefully Gloria won't be threatened with closure.

World Animal Day: Sun Cat

I had a habit of posting photos of my cats in the honor of World Animal Day.

My late cat Tabitha in the (autumn) sun.

 

 

 

 

I miss my Tabitha. 💔

 

 

When I saw the headline "October is Pet Month" in a flyer, I cried.

 

A futile and tearful life

I'm at the point in my life where everything is pointless and worth crying about. Although I've started to wonder why not all people cry all the time.

In the morning I check what's wrong today. One morning the internet didn't work on the TV. The next morning Star had disappeared from the channels, I wondered why the TV was on the BBC News channel. And the TV complained that it was full. Why did it ask if I wanted to free up storage space now, when there was only one option to choose, "now"?

And then the joint pain hit, for example in my hips and legs. I can't even get my feet up on the table when I'm at the computer. I wonder how women of a certain age are able to do their jobs, take care of their families and so on. This fun is just beginning for me. Although I can't know for sure if this is due to menopause or the strong rheumatism genes in my family.

 

 

September 28th, daylight

 

I knew something would go wrong on September 28th, daylight. When I started converting an mp4 file to avi, the program I used before refused to do it anymore. Maybe with the update nothing works in that program for free anymore, I don't know.

Anyway, I've learned that you should never update any program, because after that you can't use that program anymore.

So I had to start looking for a new program for that purpose. The first one I tried left a watermark in the middle of the image, so it doesn't work. But then I found a program called Prime Video Converter. It does what it needs to and doesn't leave a watermark.

But then when I tried to continue playing RE3, the game always crashes. When I load any save, or even start the game from the beginning. Only normal, non-randomized RE3 works. So apparently I can't play RE3 Biorand at all anymore. Sheva's adventure was left unfinished, so Sheva wasn't saved? Obviously she didn't manage to save herself (because Sheva was both Jill and Carlos).

 

 

 

Recording ER

 

I always schedule the recordings of the following week's episodes of ER on the weekend. On Monday I noticed by chance that the broadcast times had been changed. Before, the episodes of ER always started at 7:55 PM, now it's only 8:00 PM. That's why the TV had wisely moved the recordings to start at 9 PM. So I had to reschedule them again.

And the next day, DNA made channel changes, and so I had to schedule the same recordings for the third time.

Nice translations in ER, by the way. Kerry is often Carrie. And the character's name Lucien is "listen". 

 

 

 

HS confirmed what I already knew: I'm not an adult. So I can freely goof around for the rest of my life.

 

You should check out Disney's new movies.

Ps. One morning a few weeks ago I woke up to a terrible bang. I thought it is now really happening, the end of the world. Or a Russian invasion. But it was just thunder.
