..and I still haven't heard from Utrecht. Graaaargh! I'm also sick. Damn cough... *mutters*

But it's hard to feel frustrated when the sun's shining, you just got back from a spontaneous and very much needed trip to see your long-distance boyfriend, and you just got a pay-rise at work. So while on the whole I have been getting more tired and irritable with the insecurity, I am, for the moment, appeased.

This morning I woke up early (for a Sunday, meaning around 8am) and after lying in bed a while finishing the book I was reading (George R.R. Martin's 'A Song of Ice & Fire' Series - definitely to be recommended) I was seized by the sudden urge to grab my camera and go take pictures of the garden.

Which is about time, really, because I've been meaning to do it since the first spring buds started appearing, and have already missed some of the beautiful tree blossoms we had.
But then, there's always next year!

Next week sometime, weather and work allowing, I'll be taking my camera into town to get some pictures of Basel - another thing I've been meaning to do for ages.
