October 26, 2023.

Yesterdays blog was a bot of a downer one, I admit. The comments on it ranged from "get a massage", "call a lady of the night", "join a club" and "learn a new language" to "delete this now because it doesn't look good for you if you want to meet someone from here" and some random nonsense from someone else.

Learning a new language is pointless - I speak two languages fluently, and I know a few words in 15 others, so I'm good on that front. Also, I never joined this site to meet up with people in real life. I joined for the blogs. Not ruling out the possibility of meeting someone here in real life, but I am not actively seeking that. Not at the moment.

Anyway!

Yesterday, I heard from my brother for the first time in two and a half months. He phoned me up out of the blue to ask me if I could look after my niece for a few hours on Saturday. Naturally, as the good brother and uncle that I am, I said sure. It's been a while since I have spent some time with my niece, so it should be a good one.

Then, today, he phoned again. "What's this, two phone calls in two days?", was my immediate thought. My niece just wanted to hear if we could get spaghetti for dinner with lots of cheese. "Of course! but we also need sausages and bacon", was my reply. So now, I have to work my magic to create the ultimate spaghetti dish! I have had some practice, so it should be pretty dang good. I need three types of cheese: Mozzarella, cheddar and parmesan. Mix those three cheeses together in a bowl, throw in some paprika, or if you're really adventurous - throw in some chili. Possibly some cayenne pepper as well. Before you know it, you have a cheese blend that taste amazing and is good with everything. Well.. Maybe not everything, but most pasta dishes.

As you can probably tell, I am in a far better mood today. Yesterday was a rare one, where I just felt so alone. I guess we all feel alone at some point in our lives.
