Yes yes It's been a while I know, now let's move on. I was supposed to post this a month ago but oh well... We sold our house and started to search for a new one. After going through hun... a LOT .... of houses we finally found a potential candidate and bought it, yay. It's bigger, in one level and it has a garage o/. It's a bit further away from the office so no more bicycle commuting... well, at least I should have more energy saved for the MTB trips right? The thing is that the closest actual forest with more than ten trees in it, is over six kilometers away and I'm used to basically live in the forest all my life, that sucks :p And I'm not so keen in sitting in overcrowded trains one hour per day either... What have I done! :o

So, my excuse for the lack of any activity in general is the new house process thing... running in the banks, checking the houses and packing. It sucks. Until next time faithful minions o/

Bubble Bobble... and stuff

Ah the memories ^___^

I'm too busy I say. I got a raise, new fancy title and haven't had time to stop even for a coffee break since. Yay! Well, nothing has changed in the end still working the normal 7.5h a day :p I've heard that in other countries *cough* USA *cough* people tend to work ridiculously long days (for the team!) on their own time, have minimal vacations and all for the illusion of the company really caring about you, maybe? I don't really know but eventually they burn out... :/

Well, here, as long as you are just an employee without any executive powers what so ever, we work for 7,5h per day. And our vacation is 5 weeks, 4 in the summer and one in the winter usually. In this field you need to be a bit flexible on the working hours but for longer period of time if the want us to do long days they need to pay overtime salary or nobody does nothing extra.

Regaining the motivation...

the office demon

... not only for the blog stuff but the motivation to do anything other than just sitting and playing or watching movies. I have these few drawing projects I need to start  doing. Learning new stuff, yay! Aaaand I need to continue the gym and mountain biking activities again. I planned to participate in a specific World Cup race next year so I I see more leg days and more technical training in the woods in my near future. Hmm, I don't need to, I want to is more like it.

They found my uncle drowned few weeks back so it's eating a bit of the regained motivation...but we'll get there right? Goal for the next spring: Mountain biking BEEFCAKE(tm) with new madz drawing skills!

Vacation tiem!

...give me back my q-connect pens!

One more day to go! Then next four weeks full of nothing. Summer house, nature and coffee ^___^ + mountain biking ofc.

We had this tiny incident at home, she broke her back and she's been unable to take care of the kids for about last three weeks... so I've been a bit busy so to speak. We have a nanny to take care of the kids (cha-ching!) while I'm working and when I come home it's my time to wear the apron until the next morning. And the weekends, oh man... Well, it's getting better and the last week wasn't so bad anymore...

Oh! And these new pens at the office! My old trusty Q-connect dried up and I went to fetch a new one from the storage room and here we are... a new brand... and it's not good even for writing.

Blurry corners

...something fishy...

Happy times, the car maintenance cost almost 1000€ *cha-ching!*, the kids have been sick last three weeks so, yeah, looking like a zombie and my tolerance towards the office stupidity, well, let's just say that you might want to be sure that I got my morning coffee before talking to me... and! And my new SanDisk mp3 player doesn't recognize all the music in it. What the hell man? The files are there, all the music is in the same mp3 format, the ID3 tags are in the same format.. this thing should recognize at least 32GB card and I have only 14GB worth of music in it... WHAT THE HELL MAN! Aaaaargh!

Divided

feat. Kirby

I like it, it calms my mind. Kirby was an accident. As always, what has been seen... so there it is.

Oh man, the twins have their first birthday this week. Have I really survived a whole year? (YAY ME!). They should celebrate my achievement of not going mad and still being, at least barely, alive.

Church of Poké Balls

Night of the living Pokemons

A quick one. Not so pleased with it but here it is. The church thing was an accident I swear. Is there a Cthulhu like monster in Pokemon? Because if there isn't, I think we are in trouble.

Also, family tragedies!... There's been mistresses  and secret meetings and stuff (not me not me not me!), you know the thrill :p Let's just say that someone I barely know left his family for another woman. Actually I barely even know the other half of this family. Right, so why on earth am I in the center of cross-examination here? The theme of the weekend went something like this: "did you hear what happened?.... so, where's your girlfriend?... are you leaving us?... how can I know what you do when you are somewhere else" And I'm like o__O "what? did I do something?". I never even liked the guy. He looked and acted just like the typical guy who would do things like these anyways. So, I'm looking forward to any activities I may have after work in time being... this is going to be fun.
