What a day!
Wow, what a day was today. Many news on private stuff, nothting to do with any ficcing.
I was woken up around 6.30 this morning by my boyfriend who was just getting ready for work. Since we planned getting new furniture this afternoon I asked him to come back home earlier than usual. We promptly got into a fight about me dictating him his working hours. I never did that. He said he didn't do any overtime the last two weeks because of me and that I wouldn't even acknowledge it and now I would even ask him to come home even earlier. Actually, I thought he was coming home earlier because his work was so boring the last days about which he complained about an hour when coming home. He did a lot of overtime the weeks before because everything was new to him and he had some very difficult cases to work on. I really didn't see his coming home earlier as a favour to me. Pfft... men! I ended up telling him how sorry I was that I didn't understand his reasoning for coming home earlier and he was all forgiving. So we were all good again. Anyway, I still wondered what everything was about.
Around 8 am my ex-boyfriend Willy came by. I did ask him to visit me because he's my super-special-pc-healer and I had problems with my pc's fans and the noises they make since I've got the new mainboard. He brought baps/biscuits/buns/gems (little breads?) and we had a lovely breakfast talking about a lot of stuff that happened since we had seen each other last. He's insulin dependent diabetic and got the insulin pump now because otherwise he can't control his illness anymore. It's very difficult for him to deal with this pump because it feels like real bad baggage to him and he feels not able to move freely. Still, he's so strong and confident about getting used to it soon. I adore him for his courage.
Anyway, he started working on my pc and my fans and didn't get anywhere because with the new board all the cables were to short for the big tower I had so we drove to buy me a new case. I sooo wanted a new case for a long time. I got one for 90 €, that's very expensive and I am regretting it a bit but at least everything is looking nice and all again. Still, the problem with my fan noise isn't solved. He got a call from his girlfriend who was earlier at home as usual and who totally freaked out in jealous mode when he said he was with me. I mean, girl, we're not together anymore for over two years, he's got a little baby with you and I've got a new boyfriend myself. What's all the shit about being jealous, really! Anyway, he had to go home very fastly and so he promised to come back tomorrow and finish the pc fan thing. Great.
While Willy was working on my pc I made some calls. First, I called my grandpa if he knew anything about my car. My lovely little blue Mitsu left me a few days ago. I drove to the supermarket to get (little breads?) and when I came out of the bakery it just wouldn't want to start up again. I called my brother who towed me off home to my dad who couldn't help me, just said that it prolly was the gas/petrol pump. Great. I called my grandpa if he knew a good and cheap repair shop and he did. It was a complete horror place, looking like a biiiiiig junkyard with dead cars and car wrecks all around. I sooo wouldn't want to leave my baby there but what choice did I have...
So I called my grandpa this morning if there were any news on my car. It still didn't want to start up and the Mister from the Technical Inspection Agency would come by this afternoon (two years were over and I needed a new badge to proof that my car was still okay to be driven). So no news.
Martin sent me some sms about me having fun with Willy and then I knew what was about the fight this morning. He was just as jealous as Willy's girlfriend just didn't want to say it! Grrr.
I went and got my mail around noon and found the pre-collection reminder for a bill for a catalog buy I never made. It was over 90 €. I called the catalog and got the information that my brother had ordered things and never payed them. Just great. This day was getting better and better. I called my bro and my mom and she said she had talked with my brother about the order and that she was going to pay it, she just totally forgot about it. Well thanks. Next time the collector had been standing at my door!
Then I called my bank because for what ever reason whenever my boyfriend wanted to look on our joint account (for rent and groceries etc.) he could see my personal account too. Of course I didn't want that. Who'd like his boyfriend always complaining about how you spend your money?? The bank made its apologies and changed the account conditions. Okay, not bad.
Around 3 my brother and his girlfriend came by and collected me to drive to my grandpa where we would get the trailer and two new mattresses for my new bed. Before we went there we drove to the repair shop and asked about my car. I asked the boss: "how is my car?" and he answered: "it's freezing!" Oh just great. My baby's all alone among all those dead cars and it's freezing! Then he smiled and told me that my wonderful blue baby passed the Technical Inspection without further ado but was still not starting up but that he got the problem and would solve it in a couple of days. Great. I will get my baby back and even if it's still over 14 years old it did pass the Technichal Inspection as if it was brandnew and I am allowed to drive it two more years. YEAH. That's my baby. (I do know that I am obsessive with my car... It just always is there when I need it and it does what I say! What do you want more?) It's going to cost me about 250 € anyway for all the time in the repair shop. Grrr.
So we went to my grandpa, got the trailer and the mattresses, drove home, where Martin was already waiting for us, we brought the mattress up (and yeah, I am so happy about the lift in my house!), brought all the furniture from the bedroom on the attic and drove to my aunt who was waiting already with her old/my new furniture. I hadn't seen it yet and was really surprised that it was looking that good. Two big cupboards with three doors, a mirror on one door of each cupboard, a loooot of room to put clothes in, and a wonderful iron double bed in dark green with golden ornaments and two matching bedside tables with glass and two matching bedside table lights. It's just gorgeous. We got all the stuff to my apartment and started rebuilding the cupboards and bed which had been demounted for transport. In between we had pizza for dinner and laughed a lot but it was a lot of hard work too. I was sooo proud of my brother for keeping in control of all the setting up of the furniture. It was 11 pm until we finished that and I only put back the clothes. I still have to put away a lot of other stuff from the cupboards in my previews bedroom but I guess it's time I actually sort all that stuff out from the bedframe etc.
So, now I made this entry and I am really tired, my lover is in bed for a while already, sleeping like a baby, he has a long day tomorrow, from 8 to 6 pm, and I really look forward to join him in our new fancy bed. Soooo, good night everybody! I hope tomorrow won't get this stressful.
If you find any un-mixy words or crazy phrasings or if you can help me with the little bread question, don't be shy to tell me.
*hugs*
