Sällskap

Idag har jag sällskap i min säng. Han heter Shottas och är väldigt mysig.

Julen var episk. Jag har fortfarande inte riktigt orkat sminka av mig. Men bakfyllan är över, och bakisångesten är borta. Kvar finns fina minnen och ett uns bitterhet över att karln inte hört av sig än. Vill vara värd ett telefonsamtal i alla fall.

Okay seriously the more I read about dogs - more particularly English Bull Terriers - the more I want one. I love the intelligent look in their eyes, the beautiful colourings, and I think they look so handsome. I mean it. I know that they are difficult dogs but when I'm older, and if I ever move out to the countryside, and... stop working because I'm a millionaire or something, then I'll buy a English Bull Terrier and give it all the exercise and attention and special food it ever could need.

I want a black one though, or cream. Or mix. Or any kind, they are so pretty!


Listening to: Roxy Music - Avalon (I think it's time to clean up my playlist.)

totally gay

Been reading some about Moomin, as in the gay icon. Or maybe the gay icon Tove Jansson. Read this very interesting article on the subject (it's in Swedish though). I've know for ages about Tove Jansson being gay (and also an anarchist) and the character Tooticky being based on her partner Tuulikki Pietilä, but she is one of my favourite authors and always interesting.

So thing of the day is:

• All of Tove Jansson's books. I read some of her adult books and I love them, and I would love to read all of them, and I would love to read all of them repeatedly.
• The Arabia Moomin-mugs (and bowls), specifically Tooticky and "Thingumy and Bob" as Tofslan and Vifslan is mysteriously translated to (Tofslan is Tove and Vifslan is a girlfriend - not Tuulikki but Viveca Bandel), Moominpappan (Moomindad) and last but not least Snufkin - Snusmumriken.

Ah yes. I have also been spending a lot of time looking at pictures of small, cute, yappy-type dogs. The cuteness. It devours.

Oh well, back to work.
