And another one…

And another one…

Well well, and I just made another new skin, this time featuring Meg Ryan. I really like those two pictures, and not only because she’s dressed US style…Meg looks quite droolworthy in the pics. 🙂
Other than that I haven’t done very much today, I made this nice Hugh wallpaper that you can see on the right side, but so far I’m not gonna release it in my wallpaper section, I just think it’s not fancy enough. It’s only a simple (but gorgeous) picture of Hugh and I ran a couple of filters over it, so the slight blurriness looks like it’s wanted (in truth it’s just blurry because of the resizing. ;))
Tonight my mom and me are going to friends’ for dinner. They invited us over, ’cause they’re making Raclette. I don’t know whether everyone knows what raclette is…don’t think it’s very wide-spread, probably just Germany, Switzerland, France and Austria….not sure. 😕 Anyway, I’m looking forward to that, ’cause I really love that stuff and we don’t have it very often, since we don’t have a raclette oven….

Ok, that’s it for today, now I gotta go take a shower and afterwards Places will be updated. 🙂

New Skin!

New Skin!

What happens when Anna gets bored and doesn’t even have to feel bad for slacking off, ’cause there’s nothing important to do?
Yeap, Anna creates new skin for her website. I’d applied for the Hugh Jackman fanlisting, but sadly I got a rejection mail today. Very depressing, I would’ve killed for that fanlisting… 🙁 I was already looking forward to building it. Well, I still wanted to make something Hugh related, so I just decided to make this brand spanking new skin! How do you all like it? I’m very satisfied with it, even though it is pretty simple.
I wish I could just one day sit on my ass and learn how to really skin my site, with completely different layouts, but till that day the stylesheet switcher will have to do. 🙂
Work was pretty stressful last week, especially Tuesday and Wednesday when we were only two people in the agency, I had so much to do and like every 5 minutes my boss called me and gave me even more work. I was so exhausted in the evenings, unbelievable….but yeah, I survived, somehow. 😉
I’d like to do some memes to fill this entry up a bit more, but I just can’t find any good ones. Friday Five is still on hiatus, Weekly Wrapup doesn’t exist anymore (which is really a shame, I always enjoyed that one), and I don’t really like the Saturday memes I found.

Hah, gotta edit, ’cause I did find a meme in the end. 🙂
The Unconscious Mutterings

Oh, and just to prepare you guys, next Friday this blog will take part in Free For All Friday 🙂

I love spring!

I love spring!

Everything is blooming, and looks very pretty, really reall enjoy that. Today will be spent mostly outside, working in our tiny garden. We need to finish cutting out hedge, which is actually a pain, in every way. It has lots of thorns and they have something in them that’s not very good for you, it irritates my skin very badly. I hate that thing really, I’d prefer a different one, but my mom says it looks so pretty in the fall with all the little red berries. But the rest of the year it’s ugly. 😛 So what’s the point in keeping it? Well, we’ve been through this before… *sighs*
Anyway, we just came back from the gardening store, we bought some herbs, that will be planted in our garden. That is the part I’m looking forward to. I’m like a child, love digging in the dirt. Hehe. 🙂
What else can I tell you about?
Oh yes, I will get my real contract for my 3 year training at the travel agency starting May 1st! I was supposed to get it June 1st, but I guess my boss didn’t remember that right and counted wrong, but oh well. Hehe, I’m glad I’m getting it sooner, ’cause that means I will earn more money. Yeah well, it’s still not very much, but better than what I get right now, definitely. 🙂
Things are not looking much better for the agency though, my boss officially filled me in now and said that he will either sell it by the end of September or will close it down. But even if he has to close it down, my job will be secure, he will work from his home then, and only do fairs and stuff like that. Well, I’m not very much looking forward to working from his home and not working face to face with customers anymore, but it’s better than having no job at all. I would hate having to start searching all over again. It’s a pain. I really hope he will be able to sell it though.

Ok, since this week we don’t have a Friday Five I searched through their archives and am now using the one from May 16, 2002:

1. What drinking water do you prefer — tap, bottle, purifier, etc.?
Tap water. The one we have around here is actually healthier than most bottled water. At least that’s what they say.
2. What are your favorite flavor of chips?
Pepperoni flavored
3. Of all the things you can cook, what dish do you like the most?
My very cheesy noodle pie 🙂
4. How do you have your eggs?
Over-easy
5. Who was the last person who cooked you a meal? How did it turn out?
My mom, and it turned out great as usual.
