October 22nd, 8.24: is asking (yes, so early) why has youtube, dailymotion etc gone MUTE all of a sudden? Speakers work but those sites are silent. Anyone?

October 18th, 0.16: has not been drinking today! Really… She hasn’t been drinking at all. Sipping champagne is not like drinking it, right?

=========================================

September 5th, 21.47: wants to stay home in her big woollen socks, yet going out in the rain, high heels and a cocktail in hand sounds more and more tempting. Must be the zaza eeuu effect!

September 5th, 19.49: thinks boys who make you feel the zaza zou so fast then just as quickly, take it away with only a few words, are smart boys. Saves us trouble I’d suppose

September 5th, 11.55: thinks the best thing one can do when it’s raining it’s to let it rain!

September 5th, 1.52: is back from a great night. Great food. Great drinks. Great people. Now great sleep! Isn't that great?

September 4th, 19.35: has lived her day like a princess and now is off to dance the night away in her lovely glass shoes… If she looses one, will you google her up to hand it back?

September 4th, 11.02: is waking up like a princess. Can anyone please warm her croissant up, not too much though, wouldn't want to burn her fingers

September 4th, 3.03: is exasperated! Seriously... Damn! Merde! What language should she say it in. It's past 3 and she needs to be human tomorrow

September 4th, 2.15: thinks laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion… She personally prefers to laugh. There’s less cleaning up to do afterwards

=========================================

September 3rd, 14.50: has decided to attack her 2009 spring-cleaning in advance. House, friends, head and if enough courage, shoes and closet

September 3rd, 11.07: has had quite a night and feels for your own ease, she’ll be keeping quiet today

September 3rd, 2.30: has decided to sleep! May be a very wise decision that will keep her entourage safe tomorrow!

September 3rd, 1.44: is bored! Yes, she should probably be sleeping but s*** happens and she's not. Anyone is up wanting to mail her?

September 2nd, 11.02: is wishing upon a farm, some cows, horses, bugs, lovely trees and all that, and peace of mind. Anyone got something like that to offer?

September 2nd, 1.49: feels so bloody restless she's up about to clean, iron, sort her business cards or bake a cake

September 2nd, 1.37: is in bed, no sleep and her mind that feels like it is decomposing. When does it get easier?…

September 2nd, 0.58: is dreading loosing her mind… Hopefully she has a tape back-up somewhere, and if not, lots of vodka!

=========================================

September 1st, 16.40
: has just moved into the land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. She reached the stop and has just crossed over into the Twilight Zone!

September 1st, 15.49: is travelling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land of imagination. Next stop, the Twilight Zone!

September 1st, 14.12: is on family duty tonight hoping not to wear her dot blue kid dress, shiny shoes and get wet kisses from her old auntie… It just won't do!

August 30th, 14.22: is saying that if it was up to her she’d go right back to sleep, skip this day and go straight to the next! Sundays can only be fabulous and good can’t they!?

August 30th, 11.40: thinks you may wake up at 6am, but then you fall back asleep and wake up at midday… Now however got to get moving. Was it the left leg first or the right?

August 30th, 6.30: thinks waking up at 6am is considered a sin in some parts of the world. If only it wasn’t for the blond angered b*** invading her sleep!

=========================================

August 29th, 23.30: thinks “Anger”: an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which is poured! This “anger” has a name and blond hair

August 29th, 21.20: thinks some people have nothing else to do than attack others via FB. Sandra has found herself her first stalker

August 29th, 10.39: loves the man who brought her the pills and loved the pills only thinks, that despites all, all hope is lost for her! Give her a job or put her in nightly comas!

=========================================

August 27th, 22.44: pressed stop. Bed. Yes. She. Now! God bless… Good night!

August 27th, 11.30: has been up since such a long time she’s starting to think it’s time to go back to bed now!

August 27th, 7.19: is going to bed past her bedtime and waking up before its time! It’s all upside down these days!

August 27th, 0.54: has been quite expat’y tonight and is now in bed like a good girl. If you don’t hear from her till tomorrow, be happy! May the sleep force be with her… Amen!

=========================================

August 26th, 18.21: is still on a wave and needs you to be extra gentle. The inner boiler is on and the kafta is one cheek away!

August 26th, 11.26: is advising you to be extra sweet to her today cause the kafta can come easy!

August 26th, 3.19: is begging of you to give her the secret to true sleep (along the lines of true love sort of thing) is there a guide book? Sleeping for idiots!

August 26th, 2.12: is in bed but if only she could be in the land of far far away… or in some hopelessly romantic fairy tale… Only for a day or two, that’s a fair request…

=========================================

August 25th, 23.55: wonders why it is you only find the perfect man who will chase you no matter what, all excuses cast aside, in films or in other peoples lives?

August 25th, 11.01: has her phone taped to her ear, the keyboard taped to her fingers and drinks coffee with a straw

August 25th, 2.37: is thinking about too many things at the same time much too late at night! Tell her to stop and teach her to sleep!

=========================================

August 24th, 23.56: is optimistic and thinks there is a good side to this rain after all… She’s still looking for what it is though…

August 24th, 14.15: is wondering what we have all done wrong to have such a sad depressing weather. Haven’t we all been good? Don’t we deserve some sun and affection?

August 24th, 11.07: is fed up with this Facebook spam! She felt so secure here, so safe, and now… Spam bam!

August 24th, 2.27: is watching Secret Story in bed and laughing out loud at John-David’s hair issues… Does it get more pathetic than that? John-David and herself!

August 24th, 1.11: is back home from girl meets girl meets boy then another boy, meets girl and boy, then one more boy meets boy. A fabulous day out!

=========================================

August 23rd, 11.08: is waking up on this Saturday and thinking, what is Saturday? Is it a resting day or a busy day? Should one be thankful for the week or is that tomorrow?

=========================================

August 22nd, 23.19: is going to do her best to sleep early and get to the next day. Some days are too long and complicated to stay up late for!

August 22nd, 17.18: is wondering, when does it get any easier?

August 22nd, 3am: is in bed hoping to wake up before midday tomorrow… May god watch over her and make sure her two alarms ring!

=========================================

August 21st, 20.54: is off to drink some mint tea… If you come she’ll put some vodka in it just for you… or champagne. Whichever works for you really!

August 21st, 19.13: just remembered a dream where she had a huge star tattooed all over her back. Does that mean she should wish upon a star or get a back massage?

August 21st, 14.29: should maybe watch her thoughts for they become words. Watch her words for they become actions…

August 21st, 11.38: managed to find her sleep in Bolivia and reunite with it in bed here in Paris. So proud!

=========================================

August 20th, 21.37: put some stuff under her table legs and has now a happy table!

August 20th, 17.20: is restless but only good is coming out of it. Her house is sparkling, her shoes back in place. Paperwork done and files all filed! Great!

August 20th, 13.30: has known better. Banks can break you down like rain during a romantic picnic.

=========================================

August 19th, 21.21: is proudly announcing she is going to bed. Yes, it is only 21.21 and she’s loving it! Have fun out there kids! Grandma is going to sleep! For once that she can!

August 19th, 16.56: is feeling the downside of going out till late and getting up before the cows even mooo!

August 19th, 7.41: has less then 5 hours of sleep in her blood… Not quite sure that will get her that far…

=========================================

August 18th, 2.49: met an old friend tonight. Fantastic evening hoping to sleep now cause at 7am got to be up like normal people. Will she? Is she?

August 18th, 19.58: thinks meeting people you’ve virtually known for long, for the 1st time, is like having your first ice cream after a long cold winter… Or something like that anyway.

August 18th, 13.55: is recovering from an intense girl chick flick night! 3 films. 9pm till 3am… Quite intensive!

=========================================

August 17th, 15.55: is finally ready to leave, drink, eat and be merry watching chick flicks while sipping pink cocktails. God created Sundays and Sandra is loving them!

August 17th, 13.07: is not quite sure if it’s time to leave bed or press snooze just a few more minutes. Sleep deprivation and intense jazz groupy’ing do that to you.

August 17th, 4.35: had a great 2nd time around at the Sunside with the boys! The trouble with (the) Yaron, Matt & Gerald (trio) is that there is not enough of it!

=========================================

August 16th, 12.08: is off to the sun and the sunside!

August 16th, 9.20: is up. At 9… Now what?

August 16th, 8.56: went to bed at 3, work up at 8… What’s going on? She’s all upside down like a jazz tune. She’s a groupie now. Needs force and energy!

August 16th, 2.24: is back from a fabulous jazz night at the Sunside. Going back tomorrow for more! Can never have enough of good music and shoes!

=========================================

August 15th, 13.06: is going to the Etienne Marcel with her t-top and good reads! Nothing like a good chicken Caesar and sun to wash the bad mood away!

August 15th, 3.39: is fed up being the good friend who is left behind in favour of the “potential maybe” who is getting a lift home while she looks for a cab alone past 3am! Merde!

=========================================

August 14th, 19.30: doesn’t have a sense of entitlement or that she deserves what she has. Can she have her champagne now?

August 14th, 14.09: is asking herself too many questions for the answers she can give herself back!

August 14th, 11.59: is getting her own delivery of sleep from over seas in just over a week!! Deliverance!

August 14th, 3.05: thinks she may kill a brain cell with each Secret Story episode. She’ll have to learn to sleep again or she’ll be dumb by the end of the summer

August 14th, 1.30: can’t decide if to count an animal farm to help her sleep or the days left in the Secret Story house. Which got more potential?

August 14th, 0.25: thinks when women are depressed they go eat or shop. Men invade another country. It’s a whole different way of thinking!

=========================================

August 13th, 19.08: thinks her prince charm lost her address or broke a leg on his velib! Those damn velib’s! A curse on a girl’s love life!

August 13th, 12.31: welcomes you to the church of holly cabbage. Lettuce pray!!

August 13th, 11.39: is laughing out loud at Jules (the family cat) who apparently, had nothing better to do than pee on the living room phone… Psycho cat!

August 13th, 2.19: had a fantastic day out in the windstorm. Home now. Should sleep really… Can’t obviously! Exasperated. Honestly!

=========================================

August 12th, 11.43: wants to teleport to Israel, help a beauty queen blow out her 2nd year candle. There isn’t another little girl in the universe as gorgeous as Maya, don’t care what u think!

August 12th, 1.44: is going to bed hoping her Stardust transformation will operate during the night and transform her into fairy Sandra will magical powers to save the world!

=========================================

August 11th, 23.29: has just watched Stardust and her life has changed! Tomorrow she’ll wish upon a star, marry a prince and glow in the dark!

August 11th, 21.44: is at home first evening in a few weeks. So far, there has been no temptation to leave it. Rather good progress!

August 11th, 11.29: is starting to fear the night like kids fear the closet monsters. It's not free-hug day but if you see her in the street today, take her in your arms!

August 11th, 3.42: is in need of a friendly, warm and long hug… This lack of sleep is making her go nuts! Needs a pair of warm arms around her and a glass of hot milk with a straw.

August 11th, 3.14: wants to sleep but lost her 10-stepws-ti-sleep guide book. If only someone could remind her of step nr. 1, maybe she’ll recall the rest.

August 11th, 1.50: is back home and thinking… Will we all end up in chairs, communicating through a screen, eating liquid food and getting obese while missing out on life around us!

=========================================

August 10th, 13.19: thinks lazy is a wrong word. People are not lazy. They simply have impotent goals!

=========================================

August 9th, 23.37: is back home, drunk, tired and ready to go to bed before midnight! How bad is that… or maybe on the contrary, with her sleeping history, it may be quite good!

August 9th, 13.34: has been doing so much since this early morning. Had brunch, did some emailing, found a cure for cancer…

August 9th, 11.49: could maybe pretend she's in a different time zone and feel less guilty about opening her eyes at almost midday

August 9th, 2.55: is in bed. Not asleep yet but the bed is an excellent first step! One baby step at a time!

August 9th, 2.08: thinks that if you feel lonely, move to the city! City life is millions of people being lonesome together!

=========================================

August 8th, 13.32: thinks that having something to say is overrated!

August 8th, 11.20: is getting up with a slight…ly horrific hang over. Things didn’t go according to plan. Do they ever?

=========================================

August 7th, 3.30: wanted to go for just a drink. Ended up in a club for one more. Finally in bed trying to end the day.

August 7th, 15.36: is afraid of the thunder! Has nightmares about plane parts falling down from the sky and giant bees aiming to sting her through doors! To be avoided in storms!

=========================================

August 6th, 19.16: wants to stick her head into the freezer and keep it there till Santa comes by!!

August 6th, 10.44: thinks the nothing will be here any minute and she won’t just sit here and let it take over her!

August 6th, 2.39: is sorting out her wardrobe at 2.40am. She lost it! Completely! She needs help, or maybe just some hot milk with honey and a slight coma!

August 6th, 0.51: thinks a man is what he thinks about all day long. Maybe that’s why she’s not tired cause all day long she thought she was a superhero with superpowers!

=========================================

August 5th, 2.41: wants someone to take a big heavy object and quite gently bring it on her head and make her sleepy… so, so sleepy!

=========================================

August 4th, 14.29: is stuck in reverse!

August 4th, 12.04: is asking, liebchen - sweetnessheart, what watch? Twelve watch. Such much?

August 4th, 2.10: is watching Casablanca, thinking how time goes by, feeling quite sentimental and wondering what watch… 2am watch… Such much!

August 4th, 1.46: is watching Casablanca, crying to Casablanca

=========================================

August 3rd, 23.38: is still taking her break. Still trying to get over her human disappointment and drinking… It helps!

August 3rd, 2.37: is taking a break. Needs to reboot and get rid of trash!

August 3rd, 2.27: has been let down not by 1, by 2, but by 3 people in less then 2 hours tonight. A bit tough to handle…

August 3rd, 2.10: is fed up! Why give if you don’t receive back? How to choose the right people? Learn to trust less…

August 3rd, 1.51: thinks it all may be just a make believe… isn’t it?

=========================================

August 2nd, 14.33: thinks it's hard to find things since she lost you…

August 2nd, 12.22: wants to be in the desert. Some fruit, some water, a tent, her shoes, no phone, no stress

August 2nd, 0.46: was in bed. Was good. Was ready to sleep… Now up, dressed, heading to Castel. Where did the good resolutions go?

=========================================

August 1st, 23.29: is already in bed…Yes, there is hope in sleep’a ville!

August 1st, 22.49: is sticking to the plan so far. Being fabulously boring and at home!

August 1st, 19.11: is staying home this Friday, not drinking, not smoking, not going to bed at 5am (well, to be confirmed) being boring and enjoying it!

August 1st, 12.46: is back… Don’t ask! Maybe she’ll tell… Maybe she won’t! Now she’s off… Don’t ask!

Wednesday, 2 July 2008

July 31st, 11.14: wants to organise your parties and events! Balloons, clowns and hit-you-with-in-the-face cakes. You love it!! You know it!!

July 31st, 3.24: has actually found worse than a face burning cream & Secret Story at night time… A biblical documentary… Should make one sleepy, shouldn't it? One would think

July 31st, 3.16: tried a new face cream and is no bozo the burning clown and its past 3am, watching Secret Story, no sleep… Can it get better than this?

July 31st, 2.03: is going to resist the Skippy chunky call, sort out her business cards once and for all and maybe, if still enough energy after all that… sleep!

=========================================

July 30th, 12.56: is grateful for all the “fall in love with me stranger” proposals. Will think about it and get back to you at Christmas time! More romantic!

July 30th, 2.32: wants to be in love with a stranger… Or maybe that's just because she can't sleep and has nothing else to think about at half past 2 in the morning

July 30th, 1.48: is hiding in her apartment, barricaded from evil!

=========================================

July 29th, 12.49: is quite upset about last night’s news. Where can a girl feel safe? Apparently not by her own house at 10pm with a group of men walking by…

July 29th, 1.15: just found out a girl got rapped by her house. Living in the 16th is not as chic and fabulous as everyone assumes it to be but rather dangerous and even dodgy

July 29th, 1.03: is home after a lovely evening out in Paris… Now what? It’s 1am… time to sleep or to get sleepless?

=========================================

July 28th, 14.06: looking through the World Wide Web to find the perfect job, that’s what she’s doing right now! You have the perfect offer for her? Great!! Come forward!

July 28th, 1.01: is fed up being tired and a blink away from sleep then wake up and feel ready to start her day at 1am instead of ending the former

July 28th, 0.30: thinks you should follow your heart, but be quiet for a while first. Ask questions, then feel the answers

=========================================

July 27th, 22.13: had an unexpectedly good day in the Marais. Just got home wanting to go back out there… All these people and warm weather make her want a cocktail!

July 27th, 13.15: says breakfast is why she gets up in the morning. Her definition stops here! Brunch is why she gets up on Sunday noon!

July 27th, 3.24: wanted to go to bed early. Never happened! Back from the Bagatelle woods, redbull’d up and off to lala land!

=========================================

July 26th, 23.07: was pj’d and on her way to bed, now somehow heading to the woods… On Bagatelle duty!

July 26th, 21.39: is staying in tonight! Yes! In! On her sofa! Yes! No drinking! Yes! She’s loving it!

July 26th, 15.09: got her sleep, missed her lunch, broke a zip and is about to try very hard not to kick someone’s ass!

July 26th, 3.30: is advising, do not be misled! Starting to believe most signs are misleading and bad company corrupts good character!

July 26th, 2.52: is starting her 3rd year of TDiP! Thank you all for another fabulous year!!

=========================================

July 25th, 18.22: is lacking sleep. After 4 hours sleep last night, just got up from an attempted nap. Even faked a snore to pretend… Didn't work… Tough night ahead!

July 25th, 12.16: chatted on the phone like a schoolgirl till almost 6am. Hates the phone since 10am. Up too early for human kind to attend lunch then total collaps-ation!

=========================================

July 24th, 20.17: is quite sure that a drink a day keeps the shrink away!

July 24th, 19.46: is wondering if she’s walking to you in everything she does…

July 24th, 1.48: thinks all deception in the course of life is indeed nothing else but a lie reduced to practice

=========================================

July 23rd, 14.15: is wondering, since we can all read the writing on the wall, why do we just assume it’s addressed to someone else?

July 23rd, 13.40: thinks sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down

July 23rd, 2.31: is having a severe headache, probably from all that wine & too much unnecessary drama. No more of it… Obviously don't mean the wine!

July 23rd, 2.04: thinks we can destroy ourselves by cynicism and disillusion, just as effectively as by bombs… Or maybe it’s just the wine talking

July 23rd, 1.52: thinks we can destroy ourselves by cynicism and disillusion, just as effectively as by bombs…

=========================================

July 22nd, 16.41: is wondering if it’s worth all the drama… The thing is; would it be as exciting without any at all? Although, less is more isn’t it?

July 22nd, 1am: thinks we're all a bit broken inside since our childhood days & as adults, we keep on breaking others… Why is that?

July 22nd, 0.37: is a bit schizo at times… at night times!

=========================================

July 21st, 22.53: is going to work on her new personification in bed! Hopefully by tomorrow morning she’ll wake up smarter and personified!

July 21st, 18.46: needs to “personify” herself if she wants to walk the talk!

July 21st, 14.58: needs someone to take some of the punches for her just for a while. Tired of taking it all

July 21st, 11.06: has the events, may have a site, doesn’t have the name and out of coffee

July 21st, 1.38: is ready to kill someone in exchange of sleep!!

=========================================

July 20th, 23.26: was tired at a reasonable hour and now, when it’s time for bed, she is of course all awake… what else?

July 20th, 21.26: is growing sleepy while lying still on her sofa… At 9pm. Maximum social, drinking capacity reached!

July 20th, 19.50: thinks men grow most tired when staying still!

July 20th, 5.32: had a fabulous night! This may be the time to maybe go sleep on all the fabulousness and expect some more tomorrow

=========================================

July 19th, 13.29: thinks courtship consists of a number of odd attentions, not so pointed as to be understood, nor so vague as not to be understood…

July 19th, 11.08: suspects it may not be the best of things to wake up moody… Is it? Today will be a long… Long day…

July 19th, 3.12: thinks no one should settle for less and if you’re disappointed by someone… let it go and go on to the next. Life is too short to wait around and see what happens

July 19th, 3.01: is back home from a night out with nice friends, a couple of silly men, no taxis and new friends met at a station and finally, bed oh bed!

=========================================

July 18th, 21.39: thinks that history teaches us that men and nations behave wisely once they have exhausted all other alternatives

July 18th, 8.09: thought she'd get a table… Got a big heavy box instead. What's the point in getting non Ikea furniture if you have to work on it yourself… Tool power!
