If travel is searching and home what´s been found

flowernelly — Wed, 26 May 2010 21:07:31 +0000

Since April has taken up all the work for May and we are regularly hunted down by heavy rainfall, one has to be quick to get a glimpse of sunlight.
Recently I had a call from the wild, making me enjoy every breeze of wind and wanting to have more animals in my life again (which probably is one of the reasons I so dearly want a dog).

How can one be unhappy when being showered with presents by mother nature?
Just look at this.

We met Mr. Carp as he took a bath in the sunlight. He seemed to be somewhat interessted at what we were doing next to him for he followed us quite a bit before taking a nap at a particularly warm water spot. His dorsal fin made him very easy to spot and he looked like a little pet shark.

What if…

Things aren´t easy right now. I am stuck in the mid situation of “I want a dog” and “I do all the preperations that I can take, including so much reading on dog behaviour that I could easily start out being a therapist or dog trainer”.
It is simply not possible right now, as I still have to figure out my daily routine and then think about how a dog would fit into that situation.
Which actually is a very nice task to do.

I sit on the floor, cutting large pieces of fabric. The puppy grabs one end, edging all the patterns aside and escapes to the kitchen along with his new piece of blue cloth capture.
Fetching back my materials, pulling out threads from the puppies teeth. Ok, moving to the desk.
Taking all the fabric, the patterns, the scissors, needles and stuff with me.
Arranging everything new. In the corner of the eye I see the puppy do a little “mommy I gotta go wee wee” dance.
Catching the little fluffball and hurry to the potty place.
Puppy is distracted by all the other dogs arround and forgets about the piddle widdle.
Puppy tries to run to the other dogs and starts barking at them frantically. Puppy pees out of excitement.
Back in. Ah….where was I?
Right, the patterns….sitting down, rearranging. Puppy finds a hidden sock under the bed and tears it appart.
Having a little thought about just letting the doggy play,
but then reconsidering about angry boyfriend and swallowed parts of sock.
Not good.
Taking sock away. Trying to get the puppy interested on his OWN toys. Puppy plays with me.
Happy 20 minutes of joy and playfullness. Sunshine, stars, sparks and singing flowers.
Wait…I gotta work.
I get up. Puppy immediately is bored by his own toys.
I put the puppy into the crate with a yummy chew chew just to get it entertained for a few minutes.
Puppy starts to bark. Bark bark. Bark bark bark.
I look. Puppy puts on “I am so cute, how could you do this to me” face and has baby eyes.
I give in and take the dog to the park.

The end of the story? Forget work, get a puppy and be a happy girl in the park. Or so….

And I want a pom again…

This is terrible! I can´t take a single relaxed spring walk outside without grasping my boyfriend´s sleeve,
pointing exaggeratedly at the other side of the sidewalk and scream: “LOOK AT THAT CUUUUTE DOG!”
Other people passing by may think that I am a countrypumpkin and that the countryside just doesn´t offer dogs in these small sizes or that I am simply utterly demented.

I don´t care. Let me show you who we met.

This is Fifi. She is a New Yorker, but her mommy decided, that the pavement in Vienna is much better for her little doggy paws and so we had the privelege
to cross her way. Her fur was as softest thing in creation, my skin could actually not tell WHAT exactly it was touching, only it was warm and cozy.
Besides she was so happy to see us as if we were old friends.
Sigh….and here I sit, wanting a pomeranian so badly again….
Somebody hit me.

Jumping seasons

Wow, what was that? I think I might have had a spring slap right into my face.
One day it is windy winter with high hankie consumption, the next day it´s sandals and t-shirt.
Above all the farmers around the city all together decided that it was about time to fertilize the fields with cow dung,
which adds a lovely odor to the air. Vienna: City of music and nature´s natural moo perfume. You should not miss it!

Nevertheless it is sunny outside and if you are lucky, you get to see the messengers of spring. Like at the botanic garden.

Plus we get to see our hamster lady earlier around this time of the year, for she changes her sleeping and waking habits.
No sleeping till 1 A.M., yay! That girl is so gorgeous, I want to cuddle her all the time.

Happy Xmas 09!

A lot of work in the last days, but now we’re free for at least 2 weeks to post some more stuff for you:

Japanese Final Fantasy XIII Launch Line Report
A big party for all the FF XIII – awaiting people. We really want to be there, but just a flight-ticket for a release party would be too crazy

A first original gameplay video found on youtube from Final Fantasy XIII:

also interesting for game-fans like us: the japanese game-blog from andriasang.

Eventually we’d plan a trip to GB / London. Why?

Finally, We want a Dog!

Since some days we’re searching for a dog. Finally we decided to get a pomeranian or a long haired chihuahua for ourselves

A foggy cold sunday and good lightning by the sun drives us to go out with the sigma 150mm marko for some hours.

DIY help for our animal friends

As I have mentioned before: winter is fun! We also want doggies, kitties and birdies to have their joy.
If you want to help out, here is what you can do:

1. the doggie-shirt

Especially small dogs tend to get cold even inside the house, because their tummy is so close to the floor
and as long as you don´t have an underfloor heating, it might be a good idea to have an antidote.

2. the acorn-birdfeeder

Watching those little sparrows and tits happily picking for food is just as relaxing as staring into an aquarium.
I don´t know wether I should say that this is a plus for birdies or kittens, but do make sure that the feeder is out of reach.

3. the cat-shelve

When it gets cold, our living hot-water bag tends to stay in the house and get bored.
Mostly the sofa and the armchair are victims of their claws.
Moderncat reader Eva has found a way to entertain her small friends and bring them to eye height.
Have a sore back? Then this is perfect for you.
