I probably should not start a new post before finishing the last two but I wanted to put some new content on the blog to prove that I am still alive.
Also, with the time my laptop functions dwindling down each day I better start now if I want to have a new post ready for the Christmas holidays.
Now the regular blog visitors may have noticed that there has not been much activity since August - apart from a few thing added here and there to the last two posts plus the completely overhauled Mikayla Demeiter cult siren post where I was forced to remove all her pictures - and I would like to tell you that was because I put my papers and documents in order. But while I have indeed have been busy with what I like to call " life stuff "various factors have prevented me from making any significant headway.
But that is not what Today´s post is about. If there is enough interest I can elaborate a bit further on the pitfalls of spanish bureaucracy but on this Sunday I am trying to spread a little of that olde Christmas spirit.
Which is kind of difficult for me since I am not really feeling it myself.
Aside from the fact that this year has been one constant heap of crap piled upon another even bigger pile of crap every aspect of my life has self destructed in an incessant pace. Another reason is that this year really flew by quickly even if at times it felt like 2021 couldn´t end soon enough.
Somehow I have lost all feeling of time so it feel unreal that we are in the final lap. One thing may be that this time I won´t be able to celebrate the holidays with the whole family - those still alive - but truth to tell the last few years my brother, my Mom and me were pretty much celebrating alone while my other brother and my sister only dropped by for a day or two.
And I miss things. Not only my entire comicbook collection, all my BlueRays and DVDs, music CDs, book, clothes, drawings but also the simple things in life like good public transportation, sweet and sour pickles, Spezi, fast food or any kind of food to go in a normal distance, a functioning laptop, a table where I can draw or a bed that doesn´t break every time I sneeze.
You know, these kind of things. Also - and I can´t believe I am saying this - but the weather here in Spain is too warm. Don´t get me wrong, it does get cold these days, especially at night. My daily routine at the moment is to turn off the heating in the morning and open the blinds so the power of the sun can heat up the room. And once the sun has gone down I have to remember to turn on the heating otherwise it is way too cold to sleep.
Yes, it does get cold but nowhere near to what I am used from Germany and definitely without any snow. Now in Germany we had the so - called " Altweibersommer "( I think in Amerika it is called Indian Summer ) where you have temperatures like in the summer in late fall. But here we have temperatures like we would have in the summer in Germany in the middle of winter. I mean this is what the streets look now round these parts.
hohoho
