If you have 10 minutes spare, please watch the NBA Finals Game 7 Mini-Movie. Said Game 7 took place last Thursday. I love the emotions captured, the image of a team coming together to claim ultimate success, every one of them fighting and besting their own inner and outer demons. I am not necessarily a Lakers fan, but I definitely do like them. So, congratulations from me and have fun watching the video!

Year of the Pookie
Posted by Rem on January 1, 2010
Strictly speaking, it only starts some time mid-February. But that aside, according to the Chinese calendar, 2010 is the year of the striped grey tiger.
Happy New Year (of the Pookie) everyone!

Ow, my head
Posted by Rem on May 2, 2009
It’s definitely not a good idea to stay up until 5am to watch (the score of) a basketball game, when you already sort-of conditioned yourself to a 1-2am bedtime. Even if it’s game 6 of a playoff series and your team desperately needs a win to stay alive. Luckily, game 7 is tomorrow during (European) evening hours.
As of now, my plans of vacuum-cleaning the house today are kind of going down the drain, because I have a vac humming in my head already…

Blue sky
Posted by Rem on April 12, 2009
For at least the second day in a row, the sky is blue. I mean, utterly and completely blue. From horizon to horizon, one colour, not a single cloud. The treetops are looking richer and richer from day to day .. almost from hour to hour.
I’m not that much of a nature-bound person, but in such an environment, it’s really hard not to be in a good mood. I mean, hey, for me, of all people, to make two postings on weather within a week (plus one on gardening), that weather has to be quite awesome. And you know what? It is!
Wish you all the same.

Rem is …

… the Lawnmower Man.
And the LeafVac Man.
Sunny season has officially begun.
And this entry resembles more a Twitter update than a blog post.
Sorry!

Best time of year?
Posted by Rem on April 4, 2009
Sitting in my study, balcony door open all day. Fresh air, without swarming gnats. Not cool anymore, not hot yet. Just a few degrees warmer and more green on the trees … but then the gnats come back and the sun turns from “warming” to “heating”. I love the summer, but right now, spring has me all fascinated.
