Babies everywhere

Every once in a while, one of my friends on facebook shares something about her fabulous child. Yeah, a lot of my Facebook friends have children now. Actually there is one new to the club these days. And she is aspiring to be the queen. Her baby is one week old and it (ok, that's not fair, it's a boy, so he) already has like 40 pictures on FB. Not to mention that most of them are blurry and really stupid. I don't get all the fuzz. I mean, it is a baby, ok? I understand it's the miracle of creation and everything, but it is a baby! They all look the same when they are this little and they do not change every day! I can't tell difference between the picture from today and two days ago!
Do you realise that this baby is something private? It is your baby and you are ok to have strangers see their (sometimes semi-naked) pictures? If you believe that only your friends can see them, you are being naive. Not to mention that many of your FB friends are people you met once. You may say you are bragging about your little muffin. Well, fine, but one picture will do, won't it? Also, there's nothing to brag about when your kid is week old.
Another reason for not putting the pictures online is the fact that your kid will once grow up. And these pictures stay there, somewhere, even if you delete them. And your kid will hate you. Because random hundreds of people have seen it as a tiny little thing which just pissed itself. \If you were my parents, I would hate you. How would you feel if your parents did that to you?

The queen of mommy's is one of...well, she is not my friend, she is an ex of my fiancee and we hang out with her from time to time with the gang. She has a 2 year old baby boy. And not only she keeps posting his pictures, she also writes statuses. All those things you should never ever ever say out loud in public is what she writes on her wall. You people still don't realise, that just because you can't see the followers, doesn't mean they are not there. Hundreds of people mocking you for doing this. And, also hundreds of those who the "aaaw" and "wooow" and "congrats" and "i love it" to everything you post.

You might say it would be easier to delete all these people from my FB friends. I would, but then there would be no one left, honestly. And I like to know what's happening in the lives of those I haven't seen for a while. But I know more about their baby's life. I know it's a huge thing to have a child but it's not the end of everything else!
Anyway, I will have a baby someday (as soon as I finish my degree) and none of you creeps will see it on FB pictures. Or here. Or anywhere. And all those precious moments of first steps etc. will be forever in my photo album. Which is printed and hidden in the bookshelf. Yeah, I'm old school.

But, not to make you all hate me, I must say this: I love cute pictures of children. I understand why you have to post them. But please, make it interesting for the viewers. Which is not, when you post four per day. That kid of yours looks the same during the bath as it did yesterday.

OUTFIT: This world

This outfit was inspired by my favourite singer, Selah Sue. She had a similar blouse on Rock for People some years ago, so this is me, trying to look like her.

Out in the woods

I was rather busy lately, so I haven't published anything for a long time, I'm going to make that up for you. First of all, there's a report from our holiday. We were supposed to go to South Moravia, sleep in a guesthouse, drink wine all the time and relax. Then we had a talk and decided, we would invest our money into a new mattrace, save some for the wedding we plan to have next year and borrow a cabin in the woods from our friends instead. It was about 25 kilometres from our town, so we went on bikes, carrying only clothes, toothbrush, towel and something to eat and drink that evening (there was a convenience store in the village nearby).
We left at 2 p.m. and arrived two hours later. We were recommended a lake nearby that was suitable for swimming. Well, not anymore, as it was half full and really dirty. We got to the cabin, set everything ready for sleeping and made a fire.We cooked some sausages, drank a lot of wine, played cards... Well, that is how we spent all the evenings there. The weather wasn't good all the time, so sometimes we just used the fire to make dinner and then we sat on the porch that kept us safe from the rain and we talked a lot.

OUTFIT: Brrritish accent

Everyday outfit for this terrible weather. I went shopping (you can see my brand new hat (I was looking for one of those for some time, and it is perfect. Also, it comes from a shop that doesn't support mass production and that's a good thing. Unfortunately they do not have a proper e-shop, so one needs to visit the place in person.
