Life isn't about finding yourself.

I couldn't resist posting this. It made me smile throughout the day :)



Oh, and I'm apparently good at making cherry icons :D *wonders which lj icon she could replace with this one*

Here is the first pic for the photography prompt.

( 029 Covered )

So I've watched the first 2 eps of the new 24 Season and I can barely remember a time when Jack started a season looking that good. Usually he's a druggie or an ex-prisoner or even just a CTU agent - but in a suit ?
The rest of my rambling about the new Season will be under a cut and include a few Tony pics from the first two eps - just because I felt like doing it. Should be obvious that there are spoilers but I'm sure those who'll read it have seen it before me :) And not dial-up friendly picspam ahead as well. You've been warned.

( Follow me if you want to see more of my Tony infested thoughts and maybe some general 24 stuff thrown in for good measure *g* )

Sorry for spamming my f-list but I wanted the baby pics friends only. Karlsruhe is fair game for everyone though. You might see my slight love for all things green and architecture :D

If you're interested in my week - I can do a short summary, if not just follow the lj-cut.
Made in in 5 hours to Hockenheim on Wednesday ! My first time without any train being late.
Spent Wednesday with my best friend and her children (C&C) just talking and playing.
Repeated this procedure on Thursday.
Went home with my brother Thursday evening.
Spent Friday making a cake for his birthday and food shopping and just generally hanging out.
Friday afternoon back to my best friend and TV watching (Volver and The Covenant - both were fun but a bit predictable at times)
Saturday swimming at the lake - the weather was great but I didn't take my camera because we weren't always watching our things.
Sunday was even hotter, so we went to the lake again.
On Monday we visited a mutual friend who has three small children - we met them on Crete 2006 (Max - 3 years, Marlon and Mariella - both 11 month old twins). I have the utmost respect for her !!!!! In the afternoon we watched the "Deutschlandtour" come live through the village (cycling).
In the afternoon I took the train to Karlsruhe and stayed with my brother.
On Tuesday I spent the day in Karlsruhe - hence the pic spam.
My train left 11.25 a.m. on Wednesday but since Christian brought me to the station before work I ended up sitting in a café for about 2 hours drinking one tea and reading a book. The waitress was looking my way every 10 minutes :D
Sounds boring ? Admit it, even I think so. But with two small children NOTHING is boring. Not even the nights :)
Nearly forgot: we've decided where our next vacation is going to be - RHODOS. Probably next MAY *happy jump*

Now on to the pic spam

( many pictures ahead )

Great minds think alike. I just saw that chris4short put up pics of her two cats and now I'm posting mine. The reason for that is quite easy to explain and even more easy to see: Danger ! Big pics ahead!

( This itty bitty kitty has taken my chair hostage )

and now I'm sitting on the floor typing this. Have pity :(

( And another one because she looks so cute doing it. )

This time it's my grandmother from next door. Me and my brother brought her there yesterday at 11 a.m. after her doctor called me at 10 to get her from his office. When I arrived we had to wait before she was sent into his office again and then suddenly he told me to get her to a hospital for a check up. So we went home and packed a few things, drove all around the airport to the hospital and waited until 1 p.m. to get her to her room, where she had lunch - and we watched. At 2 we finally left and had our own lunch - better late than never. And then we had to tell our mom when she came home. Not a pleasant thing to do, I tell you. We're going to visit her again today, but the nurse said it wasn't anything bad - I won't even try to express what she told me in English. I'm happy I understood it in German :)

Not much else has happened, besides the bad weather - it's been raining since Friday.
Today's zoo photo is

a very sleepy tiger. I'm surprised at the quality of this pic as I used digital zoom and that usually doesn't work very well with my dad's camera - it's hit and miss most of the time :)
I hope you're all having a nice weekend :)
