In the words of U2...

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY!

Aw yes. The snow cometh. I was all ready to get upset. The local weather people had said that the snow would start last night. But when I got up this morning there was no snow. Not even a little. So I figured the evil weather forecasters had struck again. But then later that day... The snow came. And it's still falling. Wonderful snow.

I wanted to go out and take lots of pictures. But it was still snowing. I'm too paranoid to take my lovely camera out in the snow like that. I don't want to ruin it. But then it occured to me that I actually have three cameras. So I brought out my first one. The lousy one. The one without zoom. The one with barely a megapixel. The one I never use anymore. The one that isn't worth anything. I still love it of course. Good memories. Getting me into photography. But still, not worth much and therefore expendable. So I could take that out into the snow storm.

So you WILL get lots of pictures. Haha. Sorry. Consider it a preview of my behaviour when I get kittens. You better believe you're going to be flooded with pics then!

Anyway, here goes.

There is nothing better than snow. Covering everything.

I wore the old winter jacket Skye gave me. Big, warm and green. With a hood. I didn't keep the hood on at all times though. I wanted to feel the snow. Feel it good.

These pictures of course suck. Taking an old and crappy camera out in the snowfall really isn't smart haha. Doesn't matter though. I have at least kept the sizes small for you. If the snow stops then I will go out and take better pictures. Hopefully. They say the snow will be gone by Monday already so I'll see what I can manage. I'm just glad it's here now.

What fun I had!

And generally a nice weekend day.

I heard my mother acknowledge that she knows some things are hard for me. I was arguing with my brother. Peter. Just silly stuff, play-acting. We were competing about who was the best I think. Hah. Anyway, he said he had a job. Now I didn't mention that I do have a semi-job and that his job is packing stuff in the local supermarket which isn't exactly anything to lord over me. But anyway, my mother broke in and said that there were other factors involved in that. That it was harder for me because I wasn't so outgoing and open. And repeated the "other factors" thing. So that was kind of nice even, to hear her recognise that I'm not just a lazy bum. I am getting close to talking to her about my social phobia. It really is about time. And I want to use this positivity spiral to get some things done. Things like that. I'm sure it must be easier when you're not depressed and feeling horrible about yourself. So now is the time.

And then I watched Donnie Darko. Funny story. I have seen some cool people say it's a good movie. But for some odd reason I thought it was a gangster/criminal/police type movie! Hah. I don't know. There must be some cop or mafioso with a name similar to Donnie Darko? Strange. But it was on Swedish telly the other day. And I figured that even though I'm not really into cops&robbers movies I should tape it and watch it some time because it couldn't be all bad if cool people though it was cool. Also I heard that Mad World was on the soundtrack and I love that song. So I watched it today. And there were very few cops! Hehe. It really is odd. But I'm glad I watched it. What a great movie. Fascinating. The bunny scared me though. But definitely one of the most interesting things I have watched in a long while. I want it on DVD now. To watch it in better quality. I found it really cheap at dvdoo.com. But it doesn't say anything about a commentary on the extra features. And I really want to hear the commentary. So I don't know. But it's so darn cheap that I'll probably buy it the next time I buy DVDs there.

Donnie Brascoe? Maybe that's what confused me.

I loved the cellar door part. Ever since I read the letters of Tolkien book I have had that in my head. I wanted to call my band Cellar Door. But then when making the flyer/poster for Kulturgyngen I saw that we'd have a band playing called... Cellar Door. I guess I'm not very original.

My guestbook is working. I think. On and off. I feel naked when it's not there. Like people might be desperately trying to send me messages but they can't because the guestbook isn't working.

Because obviously guestbooks are the only means of communication we have in this age...

At least I have my lj too. More people should fill out this. I just did it on a whim, because Young had one in her journal. But it's actually sort of interesting. Seeing what people think of me. Of course the answers should be humorous, but it's still interesting. Like: worst thing about Plume is that he's so sad. best thing about Plume is his huge heart. I haven't really thought of that so much. How I come across. How people see me, as the person who writes here. And as opposed to how the people in my real life see me. I think I would find that there is a huge, immense difference. It would be interesting to see how everyone truly sees me, but then I'm not sure I would want to. I don't know if I really want to see those flaws reflected back at me. Not yet. I know there would be positives, but I'm not good at accepting critizism. I think I would focus too much on the negatives. So better to wait until I have overcome some of those negative things.

Anyway, it's all theoretical of course. You could never truly get to see how everyone honestly sees you. I don't think so.

Finally, does anyone know who has been commenting on this entry. It was my birthday entry for Skye, last year. In the last two days two people have left her a happy birthday wish in that entry. That's really nice of course, just a little odd since it's like 6 months ago. I wonder if it's the same person. Two random persons in two days? Is it any of you guys? You should leave your name if you're going to comment anonymously! I am intrigued.

And Skye is too hehe.

Odd.

Happy weekend y'all!
