I. Am. Beat. But in the amazingly good way. In the way that tells me I'll sleep really well tonight. Soon, actually, I'm barely still sitting up straight. It's been a good couple of days for me. The weekend in Jutland went by decently serene. Kattegat Centret was all that I thought it to be, and more. We saw the sharks getting fed, one of them looked like the freaking bad guy in a Disney movie, all teeth and evil grins. I loved that one, but it was scary as hell. I got The Bat a shark tooth, cause I know she loves sharks and really wants to visit the place, too, and figured I'd get her something cool from it, at least.
We ate at McDonalds, lol, and I have to say I'm disappointed in McDonalds, GrenĂ¥. The theme for toys was Ice Age 3, but they didn't have anything left!! I wanted to get Zith for The Bat, and possibly Scrat for A, just to be a silly little pest to them, and then the damn place is out of toys! Bugger, Jack Sparrow style.
The hostel was.. wow. It was interesting. It was a huge, red, brick building, with long hallways, doors on either side so it looked like a school camp or something. Vending machines with soda, a shabby old shuffle board game, and a foozeball machine filled the open areas. The room itself was tiny. Really tiny. Like, half my room here at home, tiny. The beds folded down from the walls, and created two bunk-bed-like environments. If that wasn't enough, they had mannaged to stuff a closet, a dining table and 4 chairs in there. And the smallest flatscreen tv I've seen in my life.
And something was wrong with either the toilet or the drain in our bathroom, so the room smelled really interesting when we got there. I never want to sleep in such a small room, with 3 people again. Especially not when one of them snores.
On the positive side, I went for a walk in the nearby forest with my stepbrother, with a flashlight, hunting for badgers, really late at night. Which was actually really nice. We talked and laughed and was disgusted by the amount of snails on the trail. It's still weird he's suddenly a teenager. I don't know if I can get used to that.
Sunday morning we got up really early, to eat breakfeast, pack up, check out, and get to the amusement park. Best one I've ever visited. The Pirate, the biggest, fastest roller coaster in Denmark.. It really really lives up to the expectations. F*** it was fast. And fun. And the guy next to me screamed more then I did. He was funny as all hell. Aka, he totally panicked on the way up the hill, and directly told me he was a wuss at roller coasters. But it was worth the 30 minute queing time.
We got home at around.. 8? in the evening, Sunday night. I had to make a stop at The Bat's place, to calm her down, stop an explosion from happening. But she's all better now, which is good.
Monday I went to pick up the furball at the grandparents'. And he had obviously missed me, but he always seems to do, even if I've only been gone long enough to fetch a coke at 7/11. Then I went over to A, and we had a great evening, talking, laughing, gaming WoW (which I've been avoiding on purpose, cause I just know it has the ability to suck me in and addict me!), and eventually decided that staying up late and me sleeping over, was much more fun then him going to work in the morning. We didn't get up till noon (mhmm, luxurious sleeping habits, I know,) and after getting some breakfeast and poking the sleeping lion, (or rather tickling it, and it's a dragon... Consequences be damned, it's too much fun :D) I finally had to surrender to my plans for the day. Saying goodbye in the door has a whole new meaning, now. ;)
Anyways. We got cleared out most of The Bat's apartment, now I actually think there might be room for the boyfriend when he moves in with her. We threw out a lot of things, and stuffed a whole lot more in the basement, and even put up some different curtains. The orange ones were just.. horrendous. Pizza and some stand-up to wrap it up, and it's a day. I am tired. Tired but very very happy.
And too kind to Rhinos.
