September 2011 / “Oh, Märta!” “…Henrik, Henrik…” “I really would LIKE to believe you! But come on! I’m not swallowing it! These kind of stories are made up by screwed up ‘artists’, who need an alibi for being such an assholes! ‘Love.’ Yeah, right!”

“…I don’t know. I’m like somehow all tired …and CYNICAL.” “There, there. ” “Lay your head down on my lap.” / “mmmhmm…” “…Who are you by the way?” “I’m The Endless And Hopeless Darkness Of  The Fall.” / “…Oh.”

Rush. / “Hey you must eat a ‘bit faster now, we are already late!” / “I mean it kid! Put that food in your mouth!” / “Did you heard me?!” // “Oh, come here Bear. Let’s talk.”

“I’m sorry I was so stupid.” / “…You don’t have to eat fast. And we don’t have to go anywhere.” / “…Do you wanna read something?” / “Yeah.  Karlsson of the roof.” / “We’ll take a nap first, and then we could bake something. Cookies. And a cabbage-pie.”

“Hmm. Well, I don’t have to try this again…”

Here, on the deck 8, at Eckeröline M/S Norlandia, nobody’s really missing the morning disco, or wondering if it’s late enough to change the bellinis to beer. Here we are just waiting this uncomfortable journey just to be over.

It’s good to sleep in Haapsalu.

It’s raining. I’m listening to the radio, and drawing. Soon i’ll take a nap. I agreed to meet Ragnar today. Tomorrow back to Finland & home.

Taking a walk. “Not the best idea.” Mum told me over the phone, that this storm is some sort of reaction to hurricane Katia. / It’s so windy during the night, that i’m afraid I might wake up at the Oz.

Day off / Today I’m pretending it’s a day off. Just a for tiny moment I separate my self from EVERYTHING HARD.

THE NURSES, THE DOCTORS, THE RECIPES, THE DIAGNOSIS (OR THE LACK OF IT…) “Ok, but if you are not gonna re-write this recipe, then write me something else! Soon I’m not even able to get out of the bed!” “‘The doctor will call you’…-Yeah, when? Next weeks friday? …ok… *sigh*” “And where can I contact if-”

…JOB-STUFF… “This time I tought we could talk about what leading a corporation means in details…” ” Help. I’m totally in a wrong place.” “What was I thinking?” “Fuck. Did I remembered to fill up that one form?” “I don’t have enough clients. Help.”

…”FREE TIME”… “What’s up?” “Same shit.” “Same shit from here to eternity. I’m SO bored.” / …EMOTIONAL LIFE… “‘Blah blah blah!!!'” “Stop being such a pathetic looser! Argh!”

…EVERYDAY-LIFE… “…Ok. So the DVD-player still doesn’t work, and i have no idea why, but the lights in my corridor and toilet are broken.” “(But I think I’m too tired to think about that stuff anymore.)

…AND THEREFORE: “I’m having a a day off!” “Shh, be quiet.” ” …Even more quiet!” “…So quiet that I can hear the clouds moving.”

(Where humor was born.)

“Oh hell with this pain! Why won’t they figure out what’s wrong with me?!” / “Well. No can do. Back to the drawing table.”

(Brakefast of the champions.)

“Ngh! …Shitfuck!” / “Have to take one of these. This pain is insane.” / “Oh Jesus fucking fuck! It hurts so much that it makes me cry!” / “…I’ll just lay here, and wait for the medicine to start kicking. …What will I do, if they won’t re-write the recipe? …Jesus, I must get back to work soon!” / “Huh, at last! Thank god, I was already late from my schedule ‘cos I had a flu!” / ” ‘ They don’t always find a reason for these kind of pains.’ ” “How is that possible?!” ” It CAN’T hurt this much without a reason!” ” And I can’t live like this forever, without anyone trying to do anything about this!” / Luckily I still have working medication.

Squirrels and Nuts.

“Have you met anyone lately?” “…Well, not really… exept for… well I dunno…” / “Well OK, I met this guy, who I have to say, was as cute as a …chocolate covered nut!” “Giggle!” ” ‘Chocolate covered, slighly salted cashew-nut’ was what I was actually thinking, ‘but It would’ve maybe sounded a bit specific, in a freakish way.” / “He was good looking, but didn’t seem arrogant or self-conscious about it…”He laughed at my stupid and nervous jokes…” “…And told same kind of stories too.”  ” He’s a carpenter, which of course impresses me…” “…But then I found out, that he had built he’s own contrabass!”

“Not that being a musician automatically is a good thing…” “Well yeah!” “…but contrabass!” “I know!” “…Those hands!” “Those hands…” “Yeah…” “Yeah…” / “So, are you going to call him or something?” / “No!” “No no” “He WAS lovely, but I don’t pick all the pretty flowers I see either…” “Like this guy I told you about… The one that held my hand…” “…Oh dear God. Is there anything sweeter? He too was like a small furry squirrel or something…” “But… I don’t have to DO anything over every crush I have…” / “…So, you just like to think about these guys?” “Well yes. They don’t go bad that way.”

On tullut sairasteltua, joten päivitän jälleen tälläisellä vanhemmalla helmellä, joka muutoin jäisi maailmalta näkemättä. (…Kokonaisuudessaan. Facebook-ystäväni ovat ensimäistä sivua joskus ihailleet, mutta taisin jättää silloin mainitsematta, että itseasiassa tätäkin vitsiä sai venytetyksi neljän sivun mittaiseksi.) / I’ve been sick, so I post this treasure, that the world would mayotherwise  never see! (…Entirely. My Facebook-friends may have seen the first page, but I didn’t admitted to them, that actually there were a lots more of this stuff!)

“I want to be funny!” “No way! It’s our job!” / “We are like silly dogs!” “Unruly but adorable!” / “Then what are we?” “Well… Like..” / “Mystical mussels!” “I don’t want to! I wanna be funny!” / “Well, you can’t be everything.” “Oh, you be somekind of  ‘Mystical sea cucumber’ and well see how much fun that is!” / “Besides, everybody want’s to pet the puppy…” / ” …But nobody thinks that mussels are cute! “…and quite a few will be willing to eat them!” ” Except ‘Sometimes when hangovered, and with a pizza.’ ”

“I’ll become a dog too!” “Well it’s not that simple!” / “I mean… you don’t even know any tricks!” “Hey, don’t take this personally, but…” / “Those tricks of your’s are all sympathetic and everything…” ” ‘Stand.’ … ‘Find the ball.’ ” / “Nice. But not my thing. ” “Hmph!” “…Well now you got hurted.” / “All I’m saying is, that we don’t have to same kind of dogs!” “You’ll be that toilet-seat-wetting, eager, trick-dog…” / “…And  can be one of those small, feisty, lapdogs!” “Yeah, right!” “You just have to always steal the show, don’t you!” / And so:  “Let’s get some air…” “And I’ll give you a bone later!”

“That’s a cute furry thing you got there!” / “Don’t touch!” “Grrr!” / “Holy fuck! It bites!” / “You should never fondle Fifis you don’t know!” / “Hey! “No pulling!” / “Oh, that’s a playful little fella!” “Well yeah… It get’s excited like that sometimes.”

“Oh look at that, Spotty is all showing off! Look at him standing!” “Yeah. …Nice trick!” / “Hey, we could take these too out to play this evening!” / “Sure. Why not. At eight?” / “Be a good girl then, Fifi… remember what happened last time?” / “Hey, I’m done with that pooch of yours!” “Train it a bit, would you! It’s constantly all over me!” / “…Or then again…” “…Mybe we’ll hang out only with animal lovers from now on!” “But now we must go home! We’ll have nicely some time to give you a little trimming!” -Goofyed by Emmi Valve, 2011.

Left Page: “Aaargh, I’m bored and I want sweets! …There must be at least one lonely piece of candy somewhere in this apartment !” Against all odds, our heroines sugar tooth got it’s satisfaction trough this catch: *A lollipop, that played the role of a wedding candy at my friends weddings, found from my party-purse.* *Chocolate-bar, found in between a pile of books at my nightstand* (Text on the book covers: ” Finnish female writers firs novel” and “Self-published poems”) *Wide range of experimental jams, that widen a persons idea of the things that can be jammed.* (On the jam-jars: “Passion-fruit” “Green tomato” and “Mint”) / Right Page: *Peppermint-lollipop, forgotten as a decorative element.* *Cinnamon cookies, bought as bribes for a 3yo. (Surprisingly tasty with the collection of experimental jams.)* *Bar of raspberry drops, which turned out to be glucose-tablets.* *A hand full of cola-stripes, hidden in my purse last spring.* “I feel sick!”

Oli hirvee olo vielä seuraavana aamunakin. / I felt awful until the next morning.

P.S. Piirsinpä eilisen merkinnän tulevaisuudessa! / I guess I drew yesterdays post in the future!
