It's only two more days before the veggie fair now. I am so nervous and stressed out I might actually be balding soon. Not last night but the night before that I was woken up several times by our very needy kitty and she just wouldn't leave me alone. When my alarm went off in the morning I went to have a shower and then I cried and cried and cried. I am officially never having children! I don't know how people cope with not getting enough sleep.
Tomorrow we'll be making another 1000 pieces of fudge, 300 more marcipan and nougat balls and possible another 400 shortbread cookies. I am really tired now! I won't be eating ANY xmas sweets once this Saturday is over.
And on Monday the 10th I'm going to the bank to talk to them about possibly getting a loan to buy our flat. Thay are up for sale soon and we will be able to buy them for a lot less than market price, which is great, but we need to get a loan to have that work. I don't know what to wear or what to say and seeing by how our kitty is behaving lately I will quite possibly be starved for sleep as well. Somehow I doubt they'll give me a loan if I sit there crying, wearing dirty rags with chunks of hair ripped out because of stress. Aaaaaaaah! |

We're going to the land of Engs tomorrow for greasy food and lots of buying things that are unnecessary and that contribute to global injustice and poverty. Go me and my capitalist ways! Also, vegetarian pub! I'm going to get really fat *happy dance!*. Now, shower, beauty sleep and then flying in the morning. I'ma gonna buy me some taxfree booze. |

I kind of gave up on LJing, except for reading other peoples posts, following a few communities and.. well that's it. The reason is because I'm far too busy blogging elsewhere. You know, in my FOOD BLOG. See, I'm a fat girl and as a fat girl it comes naturally to want to eat food all the time, and to talk about food, read about food, fantasize about food and rub myself all over with food. You get the deal. Also, I'm really not very good at being social online. While my sisters seem to find new online friends everyday I mostly don't ever find any. I suppose that's because I find the internet a difficult place to socialize (except for the fact that I met my boyfriend online o_O ).
Anyhow. I thought I would get back into the LJ thing. So i'm back. Here I can rant about things that I wouldn't over at vegbitch.
I now expect evryone do to the happy dance! (haha, everyone is like.. alex and that's it) |

God dammit!
I'm tired of my job and need a change. I've been searching the intarwebz for a uni course to do, or SOMETHING. What I really want (right now, these things fluctuate just like my hormones) is to be a chef. Preferably one that doesn't have to touch or play with meat in any way. This seems almost impossible in Swedenland and I think I might have to give up soon.
Except for cooking courses I've been looking at courses to do online. I need to get ten more uni points (not going to explain how this works in Sweden because I really can't be assed) to be able to get a student loan and a grant, if I ever want to study full time again. So. I'm going to apply for some basic programming courses (because I can then bitch at Alex and have him help me so I get my god damn points) and some courses about feminism, gender and queer theory (because I want to! AND because it's the international women's day today and it is absolutely RIDICULOUS that we still need a day like this to focus on women's issues. It's a fucking shame in a land like Sweden that women still get paid less for doing the same job, still do most of the household work, UNPAID, still take responsibility for the children, still get worse healthcare and still are seen as sexual objects for men to prey on. I'm pissed off as hell and THAT'S why I'm applying for feminism and gender courses). Anyway. So, online courses, getting uni points, getting even more pissed off and working at the same time. I am wonderwoman!
Other than this nothing much is up. I like cooking and eating (yeah, I'm fat) and just recently bitched Alex into helping me set up a new blog for me to post about FOOD. It's da bomb.
That is all. Now I will go celebrate being a woman by stabbing myself. |

We are all well aware of the fact that I'm fat. So there, we've established what this post is about.
Despite recent attempts of losing weight (recent meaning the last four months) it's been slow. Really slow sometimes. I decided on ONLY drinking for a while, thinking that somehow that would fix my problems. It didn't. All it did was make me hungry and grouchy. I quickly gave up on that idea. Instead I decided on doing something radical. Yes, it's true. I've bought a gym card. So today I went to Lund's biggest gym, stared at the poor girl in the reception area and told her I needed a gym card, 'quick!'. After a few minutes of giving the poor girl my details (she must have been afraid I was going to eat her, but she needn't worry, I had lunch just minutes before) they took the photo. Taken from an angle (slighty from below) I looked fat. Really really fat. And not the kind of fat that I actually am but rather obese and with the face of a full moon. I figure they do this to scare people away or possibly to make them feel like useless fat bums.
Anyway, they won't scare me. I'm going there tomorrow, to look silly, sweat and quite possibly die.
If this doesn't do LOTS and LOTS for my weight loss project I'll break down and cry. That should show that stupid girl not to take ugly fucking photos of me. hah! |

This New Year I made a resolution to keep working hard on being healthy and eating healthy food. I've been dieting for a little over three months now and so far I've lost like.. 12kgs or just under 2 stone. One of the really big problems for me has been eating at work. I eat crappy food that doesn't keep me full for long. Plus I find bringing lunch incredibly boring. Usually I eat a Cuppasoup and some white (DANGER! WHITE! SUGAR!) bread.
A few weeks ago I stumbled upon a site called the Vegan Lunch Box ( http://veganlunchbox.blogspot.com ). It's some stay at home mother who loves making lunch boxes for her kid. While I find kids disgusting and being a stay-at-home mother horrible I still found her lunch boxes HOT. From there I found a link to something called bento which is a japanese packed lunch. They're awesome, in every way. They look cute and the food in it is fun to make/eat. So there. I'll start making some of my own. Small portions of healthy food that's filling and fun. Hah, take that stupid new years resolutions. This year I WIN.
Ordered some stuff from jlist.com. The bum whined at my huge order of bukkake but seeing how I'm the man in the house I think *I* make the decisions. I also ordered a hot lunch box. |

I'm clearly the best girlfriend ever. Knowing Alex's obsession with computers and fish (he keeps telling me he doesn't want any other pets but fish, he's obviously stupid and a bum) I bought him a usb powered small fish tank. Just because I like him and he's cute. It sits on the pc now with it's ultra cool blue light and the two plastic fishies swimming about.
I'm thinking of getting another cat. In no time at all I'll turn into one of those crazy old cat ladies. That would be awesome. The bum leaves for England soon and then I'll be lonely again. I'll fill the void with a cat. In fact, in the future I might fill EVERY void with cats, although I doubt that would be sane, healthy or very appealing.

[Dec. 16th, 2006|09:50 pm] |
I was whined at today because I apparently 'never update'. Well I'm terribly sorry Alex you wanker, but I've been busy pirating, egging and doing veggie stuff. Plus, shouldn't you be studying Swedish anyway so you can read my REAL blog, in SWEDISH?
A few days ago I bought a new cookery book, called vegetarian cooking (RADICAL isn't it?). It seems nice. I'm trying to show poor Alex that it is possible to eat proper vegetarian food, that also tastes nice, without using meat fakes. Eating fake meat is like cutting up and frying plastic chickens; OBSCENE! (or actually, that's not why I don't want to, I'm just so damn cheap and would rather spend my money on make up and sex toys than buying expensive fakes).
I also talked Alex into buying a xmas pudding. All swedes know that ALL english people eat xmas pudding for xmas. But Alex apparently never has. I swear it's going to taste somewhat like baked beans. Everything english smells and tastes like baked beans. Or ketchup.
Other than that not much is up. I'm depressed, working all the time, the cat isn't feeling heat any more, I'm not playing wow. And so on. Nothing is happening really. We have a black xmas tree and xmas elephants in pink, yellow and orange hanging from it's plastic branches.
I have learned a few awesome words lately. Dickstick is my favourite one of them. A very close second is cockstab. Awesome. In the 70s, apparently, people found it very very naughty when someone closed the drapes. Hardcore. |

Despite this being Sweden (and despite Sweden being a rather stupid country) I found fake bacon today. I'm really curious about it and trying it for the first time will be interesting. I really miss the smoked flavour of bacon, salami and smoked meat. The only smoky thing I've found that is vegetarian friendly is smoked cheese (people buy it for xmas I think?) and it's not particularly good, not to mention it being far too unhealthy for me. Anyhow, it's going to be very interesting to try it.
I'm making poor Alex eat healthy things and I've decided not to feed the pig any more chocolate (I'll pay for this, I know I know.. ). So far it's not going too well. We had falafel and fries today. Well, I had falafel and lettuce and bread, but Alex had fries. I need to get better at this tyranny thing. |

I have a new project!
This time the project is downloading and burning (to dvd, not in a fire!)lots of films that I might or might not watch, ever. I've asked Alex to help out by mentioning films he's heard of and would want to download. So far he hasn't done much to help out with the project. So far we have Ice Age 1 and 2, Kill Bill 1 and 2, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. We have Hero, Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and the Exorcist going right now. After that I have no idea what to get >_<. Obviously I will need to get my Johnny Depp collection complete, but that may have to wait until Alex isn't watching. He doesn't like it when I drool over hot, talented men.
Film suggestions you wenches! |

It snowed today. We were going to lund to congratumalate my sister on her 20th birthday but half an hour before I quit work she phoned me saying she was going out to party so she wouldn't be there when we came. Oh well.
We got free food and no cake anyway.
It snowed. Snow. I hate this stupid ass country. First chance I get I'm going to blow it up horribly.

I've been tricked into playing Baldurs gate, life with a geek is hard indeed. It's being installed right now, doom awaits next. Today, I actually cooked. This is a big step forward in the plan I have for my life. On my new sexy PDA I have a list of all the things I need to change in my life to go from bum to fabulous. Some of them actually make sense, while others are just gross. Not leaving old food in bed being one of the worst ones. Other, more normal ones, include getting better at cleaning and remembering to always clean off my makeup before going to sleep. The biggest and most important one on the list though is moving out of this hellhole. ?rtofta is shit and shit with some extra shit on the side. This place is so 70s it almost hurts. |

I haven't posted in a while, which makes sense really seeing how I'm lazy and pretty much useless, but I have good reasons. I'm far too busy working, spending time with my man and worrying about what I eat.
I joined weightwatchers and apparently they all want us to eat MEAT with MEAT and some MEATSAUCE (because chicken is low in calories I guess). I've discovered some awesome soystuff that I bought and it's just.. awesome. It's so good. My kitchen is tiny so I probably won't cook it much, but still. I tend to only eat stuff that requires a minimal amount of work to prepare. Like quornfillets in the oven and couscous.
My bike was stolen a month ago so there's no more biking for me. However, I made sure to get myself some electronic entertainment to make up for my loss. Since my last update I've bought a new computer and a PDA. You can never get too much electronic entertainment.
Other than that I don't have many news. |

[May. 30th, 2006|10:45 pm] |
I finally have my laptop. After two months of waiting it's here and it's awesome.
I went home to my flat, happy, knowing I had INTERNET waiting for me. But no, I was wrong. After a 20 minute (very expensive) call to my providers support, they said they couldn't help me and that they would send someone to look at it. If it's somehow MY FAULT they'll charge 1500 SEK for their short visit to my home. Those bastards better fix my internet. And they better be fast.
Other than that. I'm buying a bed on thursday. I've slept on the sofa for 5 months (first mums and then my own) so it's about damn time I get a bed. I don't have a car and my friends can't help me so I convinced the people selling it that they should drive to Örtofta with it (despite them being busy because they're moving) if I payed them. So. BED. Thursday!
I haven't finished any books lately. I'm reading several but haven't finished them yet. I bought two new ones today. Once upon a time I knew how to make lace, I don't anymore. That's why I bought two books on how to. So, I'm not a very patient person and I'm extremely lazy. I wonder if I'll ever actually sit down for long periods of time and get going with some lace-making. It would be so great if I did. I need to get more crafty but being as impatient as I am I often start working on crafting projects, but I rarely finish them. I have a big box full of different types of fabric that I bought to make pillows, bags, all kinds of things. I still haven't done anything with it >_<
We went to a vegetarian restaurant in malmö on mothers day and I had FAKE CHICKEN IN CURRY. If there's one thing I really miss, it's chicken. I wouldn't eat it again (and I stopped eating it long before I stopped eating meat all togheter) but I still miss it. Anyway, I'm going back there again. Several times! |

I haven't updated in ages. Or possibly even aeons (yes I know, awesome word but that's because I'm so awesome myself).
Anyway, what's new? I'm working. Just all the time. I work, eat, sleep. It's been a month and a half now of constant work, few days off and some awesomeness.
It'll be summer soon (which is good, except I can't really stand the heat), I'm getting my first BIG paycheck in a week, I'm in my own flat (which still lacks a bed but hey, that's a minor problem). Things are generally working out for me. After 1,5 months of working 120% I'm getting a schedule instead of working hours. It's awesome, more free days and more security. I KNOW when I'll be working and when I won't.
Other than that:
I now have only 55 books in my bookshelf that I haven't read yet. I keep buying about three new ones every week so I'll have to get some light speed reading done soon.
I applied to uni. Hopefully I'll be going to gender studies this autumn but if that doesn't work out I'll be studying arabic instead.
My cat is as evil as always. She knocks down things, kills innocent objects on the floor, eats plants and drools on my face.
I refused to join some stupid 'hey, let's not eat any chocolate or any sweets'-challenge claiming I'm a big girl and that chocolate is like vitamins to me, ESSENTIAL.
My tiny flat in Örtofta is amazing. Weird polish neighbours, weird.. just weird neighbours. Spiders as big as.. HUEG! I'm 'decorating' the place kitschy style. Lots of different colours, horrible pillows, red lights, pink lights, candles and all my books.
Yeah, that's about it really. Not really much happening. Working, sleeping, eating. That's it. |

| Biking for mankind |
[Mar. 28th, 2006|06:54 pm] |
I have my bike, I almost have my health, I don't have my laptop anymore and I have huge amounts of 'doing nothing' time. All this has led me in to thinking that I might just start biking a whole lot more. And maybe even reading. I used to read loads of books but then I started playing World of Warcraft and did almost nothing else. Now that my laptop has been broken I've already read three books. At the moment I'm reading Eva Luna by Isabel Allende and I'm making sure I look up all the words I don't understand (and surprisingly, they're less than I thought) and then I write them down in a little blue book with the number of the page I found them on and a translation. I don't know, maybe I won't learn a thing and I'll forget every little word I've been trying to learn, but atleast it's a good way to spend some time.
I still don't know what happened with the job I applied for, maybe I'll get it, maybe I won't.
My little sister is moving north to Umeå in a month and I'm supposed to take over her flat. Right now, I can't afford the rent but if I borrow some money from my mother and pay it back when I get my tax return in June it should be ok. Even if I can borrow money from her, I still need some more because I'll have NO furniture. I'm looking at Blocket.se (which is a site where people put ads up so cheap bastards like me can buy inexpensive furniture and other things) for a bed and a bookshelf. Still no luck. I don't need a TV or anything fancy, I just need storage for my books, somewhere to sleep and an internet connection.
Atleast I have my bike! <333333 |

Wazzup? Not a lot. I'm going on a job interview soon and I'm sure I'll get the job (yepp, because I'm sooo irresistible : / ). Timvikariat ftw (no I don't know the english term and I'm too lazy too look it up). My sister is moving north in a little over a month and I'm taking over her flat. She's taking all her furniture with her so I'll only have a mattress to sleep on and possibly a table and a chair. It's all good though, I'm finally going to move out of my mothers place and stop sleeping on the sofa. Sofies flat doesn't have internet, but that can be arranged (i hope o_O ).
I'm selling stuff on tradera.se. It's a lot of work and only a little money but atleast it gives me enough to pay for my cats insurance and a café visit or two. One of my best friends has a birthday soon, I have no idea what to get her. She deserves something awesome, but my budget tells me she'll get something really cheap and ugly. When I get rich, I'll make it up to all of my friends who are paying for me and getting nothing in return. |
