h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

The wind is picking up. It's going to be a stormy night. GREAT!

Sleep tight.

We are going on with the no-weather. That makes me so sleepy. And knowing that I have a deadline tomorrow makes me even sleepier.

Yes. I remember those horrible deadlines.

It's bloody lonely occupation, writing. Especially when at times the deadline is approaching.

You've got to shake yourself awake.

This was absolutely not my day. Half of the things I had to do took twice as much time as they were supposed to take. The other half needs to be done by noon tomorrow. I am exhausted. And so far I haven't had time for heating the house and cooking something. I've seen my kids only and talked with them on phone. I hate those days.

Yep! Sounds like a normal day out of the life of a working mum.

Unfortunately yes. It's 2 am and I am still heating. I guess I'll add few more logs into fire and take a nap for an hour or so. It's +16C here already. Warmer than outdoors.

What are you working on, or am I not allowed to ask?

I am w*rking for a local newspaper atm. Nothing very fancy.
It's a weekly paper, so this time I write about Shrove Tuesday (which is very popular and widely celebrated here) and consumer issues.

Good for you, I hope it pays. It's 'carnaval' next week. I totally forgot about it Well, I'm not in a very festive mood at moment, people can party without me.

Here it's mostly about sledging and eating 'semla'. I guess my kids will have all the fun. I can do the eating.

Sounds good. Here it is about dressing up and getting drunk.

I think I like it better our way.

So do I. Still, I was thinking of celebrating carnaval at the Lighthouse Bar this year. I fancy doing an old fashioned polonaise with some attractive young pirates Now, what costume shall chose ...

The weather: dry, not cold but a gloomy day. This morning was very sunny Now the sky is severely overcast with clouds.

Lighthouse Bar? With 817 new postings... Sounds scary.
So there's going to be a carnaval there? Do you know if Caerwynn is still in the business onboard?

I haven't met Caerwynn. So what do you say? Shall we amuse ourselves with some pirates one evening next week? Perhaps I'll dress up as a monster, or a dog, maybe a cook ... I don't know yet.

Caerwynn did sewing on the Blood. I should go and check if I could have some cool outfit for the carnaval.

Wow, great act. You have to explain 'sewing on the blood' at some time. Right, lets see what outfits I can find in the boxes in attic. And music, we need music as well. Now where are we going to find musicians? I think I've got an idea.
By the way, how's work going? Did you manage to heat up the house, finish before the deadline, and see your kids?

The Blood as The Blood of Zaphodistas which is actually the name of that infamous pirate ship. Caerwynn has room #10 - The Sewing Room, very cool outfits come from Caerwynn's. (And she has fine too. )

O la la, I've got to pay a visit if she's still around. I've asked Mr C. to write us a Carnaval Slager
I'm off to libary, I've found the bravery to face my own 'writhing' again. I need to verify some facts.

Weather: grey.

The weather turns colder again. But it's weekend and that's good.
