Wild things

What is slimy and all over you whenever it gets a change? No, it’s not a middle aged man in a bar, it’s our shower curtain!!! I have no idea why manufacturers make shower curtains out of such a thin material that they just wraps around you so that you have a feeling like being a sandwich in a vacuum packed wrapper. I guess I jus have to quit my “career” in a tourism industry and start designing more practical home accessories…

I probably haven’t told you that we have some pets, and they are exotic! Every now and then, especially on a dark time you can see little white lizards running around our flat. They are harmless and actually quite cute too, but they can give you a little surprises by showing up when you least expect them…Like once when Outi went in our kitchen and turned the lights on to find out one lizard doing some research in a plastic bag. I think the lizard though it was a Rambo since it made a fast run on a table then made a stuntman jump to the floor and ran to its home base behind the refrigerator…

Talking about lizards…(Outi is forcing me to tell this since she thinks it’s the best story of the year… and all of you keep your dirty imagination in control!!!) So we were in a park today and I came down the slide (yes, we were “playing”, what’s new?) and just sat there for a while. And suddenly I felt like something would be running up my leg! (I had a skirt…yes, I know, not the best thing to wear for a playground…) I freaked out and stood up basically running around playground trying to get that something out of my skirt! Well it turned out there wasn’t anything that could come out so I reasoned it had just been my imagination. After that we just went back to our flat and later decided to go and get some ice cream. While walking to store, I had a dejavu experience and the same exact feeling, like something would be running down my leg was back!!! This time I found out I wasn’t being paranoid since a little brown lizard actually run down my leg!! I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!! That frigging lizard had been in my skirt for the last 20 minutes without me noticing it!!! Outi giggled for about 15 minutes like a maniac having the time of her life. Nice to entertain people, seeing them laugh makes my day…=)

Outi finds herself so often in weird and exciting situations. Yesterday was a good example of that! Outi and Annu went out to check out this local dj ( I was way too lazy to go, actually to tell you the truth I just stayed home to watch American idol and to read lecture notes…I know, pathetic me) and Outi ended up hanging around the whole evening with a Chinese film star… I have no idea how she does that, actor, bartender, oil trader, dump truck driver, guard for the prisoners… Wherever she goes she always makes friends with people from different walks of life!!!

Tomorrow I’m finally heading to Bali. I am attempted to try surfing ( a great idea, especially when I can barely swim…) since that’s what you’re supposed to do in Bali! But probably I just have to settle for just watching some Australian surfer guys doing their thing…Not a bad choice either! So if any volcanoes don’t decide to erupt, some tsunamis to swipe over Bali or some Australian surfer boy to kidnap me to Great Barrier Reef, I will be back in a week to let you know how it was!
