SWEET DISASTER

Few months ago I wrote a post called people I have problems with. Today I am about to write a post about those who also fit into that group.
I never understood those who get offended easily and then give you a silent treatment or just leave. I got plenty of silent treatment in last 8 years and I could never get used to it. It is driving me crazy. Let's fight until we drop, just don't give me that obscure face. I admit that I did the leaving thingie many times but that was mostly when I had nothing more to say or I just wanted to make a statement or leave a great impression. It never worked. It always tourned out lame in the end.
I rarely had/have nothing more to say, though. Sometimes, also, I left when I was about to start crying (tears never obey) and I did not want anyone to see what a sissy I was.
Anyways, this isn't about me (me, me, me!) but about a recent situazione. One friend of mine often gets offended and leaves. It is his style. Normally he's a nice guy, independent, hardworking what have you...but one wrong look, word or action and off he goes. Too bad he cannot make a career out of it cuz he could make serious money. He left a million times for dumb and even dumber reasons, but I was never one until yesterday.
We (few friends) had a barbecue outside in an relaxed and friendly atmosphere. I brought the dogs (male and female) along and that friend brought his young cute male dog also. Those doggy boyz did not really get along so I kept mine away. In one moment I went to meet his ladyfriend and my dog followed me. Dogs had a short quarrel and nothing really happened. It was more an educational thingie from a older dog to a young one. And...that friend of mine got offended and left. He put his dog in the car, didn't say a word to us and he barely waited for his girlfriend to get in the car. He always had dogs, it's not like this is a premiere for him, he of all people should not take it seriously.
I was shocked and felt really bad at the same time. I know that it's his problemo but I hate that I was the reason for him leaving... Well, maybe he would leave later for some other reason, one never knows... Then we started joking that he went to gather his compadres to come back and change my facial bone structure or „if you do that one more time, I'm leaving!“ and stuff like that.
Seriously how is it posible that a grown person cannot control himself? Can't one count to ten, think about it for a moment, say something, call me names, offend me? Something...What good could pouting do? How long will it last? The next time we see each other will I be public enemy No 1 or will he act like nothing happened? We'll see...

If you want to be sure that no one changes your bone structure take few tips from Rex:

FORELOCKS AND TIGHTS

Am I enough of a fan to go to the concert in Slovenia?

You can sing along:

From the coast of gold across the seven seas
Im travellin on far and wide
But now it seems Im just a stranger to myself
And all the things I sometimes do
It isnt me but someone else
I close my eyes and think of home
Another city goes by in the night
Aint it funny how it is,
You never miss it til its gone away
And my heart is lying there
And will de til my dying day
So understand
Dont waste your time always
Searching for those wasted years
Face up... make your stand
And realise youre living in the golden years
Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind
Cant easy this pain so easily
When you cant find the words to say
Its hard to make it through another day
And it just makes me wanna cry
And throw my hands up to the sky

The chances are about 50:60

One of my last days in Turku-Finland, Rita took me to see Turku castle. My camera card was full (with more than 450 pics on it) and I was changing it with an empty one. I was standing in the middle of the lawn (on the pic). After some time we crossed the lawn and went to the wooden house to take some more pics. I noticed that the pocket on the little bag was open and that my full card is missing. What a disappointment!! I've just lost all visible memories of summer in Turku 2006!! Suicide situazione (everything is even worse when you've got no one to blame but yourself). I went back and forth in dispair looking for it, but I have not found it. Normally, when I see that I cannot do much to change the situation, I give up easily, but still feel crappy about it. Rita was determined to find it. I had some hope in her mission but seriously, what were the odds? What would Matti Nykänen say? It's close to a miracle if you find something so small in a field as big as that one covered with grass.
Long story short: she found it! One special Koivula koti tyttö!!

Got me thinking!! You try to find a deeper meaning to this on your own. I would analyze but I'm too sleepy. I will surely get back to thIs!

Matti Nykänen sings Elämä on laiffii, pay attention to guitar solo and microphone holder

I cannot resist to copy-paste some famous Matti Nykänen's quotes:

Living is the best time of your life
Love is like a ball of wool – it starts and it ends.
What is not done, cannot be undone
Reporter: so do you think you’ll win with this jump?
Matti: well, I’d have to say that the chances are about 50/60.
Reporter: What’s on your mind before a big jump?
Matti: Well there’s always pussy, but let’s jump first

The last but not least, an interview with Matti Nykänen any journalist could just hope for! pump up the volume!
