Civilization at last!

For nearly three weeks now I have been a catsitter at my mother's about 45 minutes out of town. My mother does not have a TV. Nor does she have a computer. No microwave oven, no teflon pan (it's dangerous, you know!). My cooking is bad enough when I don't have to burn it in a really heavy, but yet just a little too small iron frying pan. Which I of course did. And the rest of the time I was bored shitless. But I did get to learn a bit of Spanish and HTML (!) and do those other things you just don't tend to when you are drowning in entertainment. In my flat I have a TV and DVD player, computer and Internet, PS2, wii, people to talk to (although the cats did make a lot of sound ...), things to see and people to do ... and tomorrow I'll be back, yaaay! The first thing I'll do iiiiiis ... go out and party with some friends, I think.

Next week will be busy with CouchSurfers every day. But I'm really looking forward to it, these people are so cool! Makes me dream of travelling all over the world ... With this terrible rain season we've been having, I'd like to go somewhere sunny, like Spain or something. Maybe I'll try to surf someone's couch for a few days :-D I always wanted to go to Barcelona. I bought a guide book a few years ago, I'd better go before it's outdated.

I should probably get back to the woods now, can't help but enjoying every minute I spend at home after work ... But this is the last night, and my poor old back is nearly crying for joy.
