On a more cheeful note

It seems my intestines are calming down a bit... I haven't been to the toilet in more than an hour! I've just eaten my first solid food of the day. ;) And I'm going to bore you with a second post to compensate for my absence these past weeks.

All this while listening to Madonna's new album for the 7th time today. MY GOD, it is fantastic! Of course it's an illegally downloaded copy, but hey... a fan can't resist the temptation to hear it several days before it hits the stores of course. (And I'll still buy my CD the very first minute I can.)

And on a more ambiguous note: our climate really seems to be changing... Normally we have depressing cold and rainy weather from late September onwards. Not this year though. The temperature still is close to 20ºC (68ºF), the sun shines very often and while normally all trees should have lost their leaves, most trees are still totally green mid-November! The rose at my patio is blossoming again (picture taken last Sunday) and butterflies and ladybugs can be seen flying around... Although the gradual change of climate is no good news, the warm weather is good for my mood. This morning I heard on the radio they expect us to have Southern France's climate in the Netherlands in about 50 to 100 years...
