The joy of books

 I have just finished reading Going Postal. I believe only read this book once before. The joy of reading a book I've only read once (or maybe twice or thee times, by the look of the spine)! 

Even better, when I went to my bookcase to get the follow up on this book (Making Money), I found out there is another book (Raising Steam), to follow that one! Ohhhh the anticipation of being able to read two more books about Moist von Lipwig instead of just one.... This might just be the happiest I can get. 

The best part, I really am sure that I read Raising Steam only once! I kinda sorta remember what it was about, but I only read it once! 

So giddy with anticipation, I will now start reading Making Money. This storyline is so good!

Choices

 Okay let's try this again. Does this work? Not sure if I'll be able to keep writing. My spell check is refusing to switch to English and all the red lines really takes away the fun in writing anything. 

Okay I'll just try to ignore the red lines >.< I have no idea how I fix this though.

I wanted to talk about choices. Specifically the choice to be happy or unhappy. I've come to believe that this is a choice. Life is just life. It has a start and an end, everything in between is unknown. 

We make our own happiness. Or our own misery (OH YEAH I finally managed to fix the spelling =)

I need a cleverer computer. One that just gets the language I'm using at that moment and adjusting itself to it... Why else do these machines exist, if not to serve us? Instead of annoy us? I've got humanity to annoy me, I need my computer to work.


Got lost in the mess that is my mind yet? Yeah? Me too.


I was going to do a nice and positive-ish post for a change, but it looks like it's going to be random ramblings again, oh well.


So the choice I have right now, is to keep struggling to get something useful down, of just accept that this is the current state of my mind and get on doing something instead of sitting here trying to make sense of myself. Which I suck at anyway.


Hah! I just found out where the random music came from, the other day. I was in my car and didn't want to listen to the radio because, meh. So I yelled at my phone to play me some nice music. I said this in Dutch and asked for "nummers die ik leuk vind", it actually managed to play me some nice music, which I had never played on Spotify before. I just now noticed that it found me a playlist that is called "nummers die ik leuk vind" 😂. So there is this random Dutch girl that likes a lot of music that I like as well. She just listens too much Dutch music for my taste, but otherwise there's a lot there that I actually like. I think this is awesome! 


Ok I'm so giddy now, just finding this out that I'm just gonna stop writing and leave on a happy note! (yay)

I just googled "happy" to see what came up to suit my mood, this is actually the first picture that came up, and I couldn't agree more =D
