Hi Motley
@Birgit: yeah, those Matryoshka-Kinder-surprises are always the trickiest ones

Hey purdy lady, what's the weather like in A'dam? I'm on holiday for two weeks, but the weather is kinda like well...erm... ever taken a cold shower? Well multiply that by 1.000 and you'll know what weather we are havin'...

Hey hun,
well, I guess the weather here is about the same as in Belgium. But the city is lovely anyway and we've got enough indoor sports facilities. One of my climing partners came back from holidays a bit earlier than expected, so now my Sundays are saved: it's just great to hang around (literally
) at the climbing hall all day ... cheap food, yummy half-naked guys ... I guess it was a women that invented climing If you wanna drop by, feel free to do so. My place is extremely small (just a single crammed room) so you probably won't want to stay longer than a night or 2. And usually weekends are better than weekdays
K.

That would mean I'd have to make good on my bedsidestory invitation... Looking frantically for my Clive Barker short story collection...
I'm still deciding on London, Amsterdam or Utrecht (since I studied there for some months)

Or a combination. Utrecht ain't too far from A'dam and A'dam is kind of on the way to London

no more cheap flights to and fro from Belgium either... “A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.” - Oscar Wilde

hm ... in those good old days when I was still young and wild *sigh* I was on an Interrail tour and I went from Monaco to Paris to Amsterdam via Belgium, further on to London and then to Ireland. O.k., if you wanna fly then the route might look a bit different. But hey, you've got two weeks. So that's even enough time for some hitch-hiking (after all the journey is the reward, right?)

don't confuse "young" and "childish"
... maybe mischievous is a better expression

29 IS young, otherwise I'd be positively ancient ! ! !

I don't give that much about chronological age. According to my self-assessed age, I AM ancient

you're BOTH ancient. I'm 27 and will SOON be ancient, which is bad enough

29 is a distant memory... but I don't feel the slightest bit old

maybe you're doing "young things"?
My job is to do research on the situation of elderly people, meaning diseases, isolation, loneliness, palliative care, euthanasia ...
I guess this might have an impact on my perspective on life

no doubt, aurinko... but I think the secret is to have fun... enjoy life, be a bit active, do things that make u happy... age no longer becomes a factor

which brings me back to the script I just read (on healtyh ageing) *aaargh*
I'm afraid my idea of fun is to think about long-term care, palliative care and euthanasia
Sometimes I'm really glad I am a researcher. With those preferences, I would really screw up other jobs

I agree, in science it's okay to have a certain fascination for weird, icky things or sicknesses

@Birgit: exactly!
@Freya: actually this is a brilliant idea. I could try to tell myself that I am 50 now, and the I start telling myself again that I am 29, so I will feel extreeeemely young then ... wait: yeah! It works!!!!!!

I've taken a "what's your real "biological" age" test on the interweb recently. It made me nearly 10 years younger. But then this is always risky, especially when you smoke or something, it might work out the wrong way!

I took a few puffs on a fake Groucho Marx's cigar on Thursday, but that doesn't count, does it?

no. Anything that might be connected to movie stars whose first name starts with the letter G does not count
