I guess my blog makes sense only to me lately, and I like it this way. From now on all my readers (yes, all five of you) are excused if they find more interesting things to read and comment on. Really, I wouldn't read my blog if I were you! I can't write about anything that really interests me because:
1. I am not anonymous (yeah big surprise) 2. I am married (self explanatory) 3. It seems like everyone knows about this blog (therefore I can't bitch about anybody) 4. I live in a Muslim country... and I would like to continue living here (if you don't know what I mean, you never lived in a Muslim country) 5. The person who is the reason and inspiration behind most of what I post couldn't give a flying mushroom 6. I am too old to try and be funny when it doesn't come naturally 7. Most of the things I would like to blog about will inevitably piss someone off, and I just can't be bothered, honestly. 8. I am so far gone I don't even need an audience anymore, lol. 9. Tennis posts will make the sad current situation even worse.
So... I will risk being labelled as an airhead, and post stupid irrelevant things until I get fed up and take up skydiving or something like that. Until the laptop becomes redundant and I forget my own URL. Ta da.
Irrelevant thing for today: how Cat got her nickname.
It was secondary school, and boys only just started trying to attract the girls' attentions. We had this silly game going around that gives a description of a person based on their eye colour. In my class we had all sorts - at least 10 different shades of grey, plenty blues, browns, hazels, and I was the only one with green eyes. Green wasn't so common even where I come from. The list of characteristics given to my particular eye colour implied feline qualities - so to play it up a little I started meowing, lol. Well that was the only feline quality I could think of at that age, haha. It was, apparently, cat-like enough and the name stuck. From there on I started getting all sorts of Cat paraphernalia as presents, I have an enormous collection of cat mugs, cat figurines, cat pics and all stuff "cat", and I don't even like cats! But I got used to my friends calling me Cat ;-)
Thanks, that's good to know :) And you are right, blogging helps.
Anon,
No I am not an Arab, and I don't wear eyeliner. However, on this pic I do have some traces of eyeliner, lol.
مجرد انسان ,
Welcome to my blog. I dunno, you can either subscribe to my RSS feed, or just check my blog once in a while to see if I posted something new. I usually do at least one (silly) post a week.
ZeroCool,
You always make me feel better about myself for some reason, thanks! ;-)
you have to explain what a tennis post is. and yes, i agree with all the points above! they make this whole blogging thingy a bit less exciting than it could/should be!
I am a huge tennis fan and I used to post a lot of tennis stuff. Go through my blog you'll see what I mean. Used to bore people to death with it.
Taras,
Hahaha I don't have passion for anything feline (well maybe for a certain panther, but that's another story) but those pics are hilarious! LOL I played with a similar pic of a Saudi cat and came up with a lot of fun stuff. Check this out!
You've got beautiful eyes kitty, and you know it. Don't despair - your blog is as funny as ever, even though I can tell you are still not OK. Come on, it's been a while now, time to move on. Lots of other fun things to do.
Get your old nick back please, you spooked me for a moment until I read your other comment about Santorini and put the two together! Lets concentrate on fun things to do, girl. I could sure use some fun.
Alanis Morisette? Really? *rolls eyes* LOL! Boys :P
As for the hyperlink - nevermind me, I have a little note file saved with the template for hyperlinks! ROFL I could never remember the code for it, and never will.
Is that really your eye or did you just cut and paste them from some model? Nice eye anyway.
You don't like cats? hmmm? I always pictured you as one of those sweet but a little crazy cat ladies who live with like a million cats and their houses always smell like pee.
Hello there :) An eye pic is there cause it illustrates the point, not because I am an Arab girl who wouldn't have her pic on an internet site! :P Those people who want to know what the rest of me looks like can click on the Flickr thingy on the left hand bar and there are plenty of my pics there.
Don't worry, I will keep on reading, and keep blogging, it helps make the working hours pass quicker.
