the wanderer returns

Well, I'm back!  I'm unemployed and currently have a great big hole in  my sitting room floor - so all is quite normal in Katja-world again...


Hope everyone had a great Christmas and that 2005 is good so far.  I'm getting to grips with actually having some time at home for the first time in a month or so and it's rather nice, I have to say!  Now if I could just work out a way of earning some money without having to leave the house that would be just perfect ;o)

Note to self...

...take more care over cleaning out the fridge/fruitbowl before leaving the house for 2 weeks.


All I will now say is eeeeeeuuwwwww!

Reasons to be cheerful

2 - My brand-new shiny computer arrives on Thursday


3 - I have lots of cheese in the fridge

Ho ho ho

Maisy's conversation about hair colour sparked off a funny memory, which I thought I'd share with you lovely people, just to prove that, despite available evidence to the contrary, I was not always the fantastically well-groomed sex-goddess that you see before you today (ahem).


When I was about 14 I was really quite blonde and so, in a rebellious 14-year-old girl kind of a way, I decided that I would dye my hair red (well, everyone does it at some point or another!)  So in a slightly woussy fashion I bought a wash in wash out home kit and proceeded to apply it to my lovely blonde hair, reasoning that if it all went horribly wrong it would be gone in a week.


The colour looked quite cool at first.  OK, it was a bit more orange than red, but it was kind of Cathy Dennis-ish and it certainly wasn't blonde.  I also had a stronger streak of colour at the front where my hair was very sun-bleached, so I had a funky kind of two-tone effect going on - way ahead of my time, I was! 


However, as the week went on and I washed my hair twice a day in the way that 14-year old girls do, the colour began to disappear.  The back of my head went back to blonde, as promised on the packet.  However, the front faded to a rather fetching (not!) shade of pale pink - and then stayed that way.  None of this washing-out nonsense.  I was stuck with a pale pink streak of hair that was quite definitely neither cool nor attractive. 


I believe it was not long after this incident that I went back to having short hair...

Hysterical laughter

I've just looked at my statistics and apparently the top search is 'boobs being grabbed'


Marvellous.  I love providing a quality service!

There's a hole in my bucket...

...or rather, my sitting room floor.  The (non-working) fireplace had a raised base and I decided to remove this so that I had a useful alcove.  However, the innocent-looking tongue and groove flooring hid a very dodgy concrete floor and every time I breathe it seems to crumble further! 


Tomorrow I start mixing concrete.  If you hear no more of me then you'll know I've managed to bury myself under my own floorboards!

A Woo, and indeed a Hoo...

...my new computer has arrived!


Unfortunately I can't unpack it yet as I am no doubt about to create clouds of dust and mess concreting the floor.  Any handy DIY-ers in the North-West London area fancy coming along and giving me a hand? *flutters eyelashes becomingly*
