Never a moment without good coffee ever again! The Handpresso was just given to me for new years!

Getting ready to switch on the first traditional new years movie.

@Basanneveld melkbussen zijn leuk om te schieten als ik me niet vergis? Goed voor nieuwjaarsnacht dus! En Schuil kan het niet zijn, toch?

Ted discovered he can walk, alone, without help. Now all he does is walk, from object to object to parent, very noisily, cause he can!

Daddy Frost came by a bit early for Ted, since he will be sleeping tonight. A true Bobby Car!

Obey gravity, it's the law!

First coffee of the day is nice and relaxed. Ted is happily playing and having some milk.

Yay! Received login details for my new job already!

iPhone finally ready to be rickrolled ?! http://ping.fm/PzNHP

that white, slippery slush is back on the streets. Oh what a joy... NOT. I really need to move to a very very warm country.

Two rides to Schiphol, a ride into de Pijp done, one more to go, one ride to Leiden. Seems like I have spent too much of my time in the car.

Things are looking well at the Schiphol arrivals screens..

i'm going to start carrying wet newspapers with me for there antisocial types

Putting on coats and jackets to drop off Tedster, Volkan and Nadia...

Why is Ted keeping us awake 2hrs a night in the middle of the might since a week? It's driving us insane!

Grabbing some sleep before busy morning tomorrow: dropping Ted at creche, @volkanb at airport and Nadia in Leiden. Taxi driver starting to sound like an option.

People really have nothing useful to do: @nosheadlines Sjors uit GTST Meest Sexy Vegetariër van 2009 - /me cancelling following nosheadlines

Finally starting to feel somewhat alive again after a bit of a kicking from Nadia.

If anyone is in search of @Volkanb's address as of tomorrow in Arizona, please drop me a line and I will give it to you!

WTF is up with these idiotically loud bangs going off here once per hour or so? Sounds like freaking granates being thrown around.

Had some dinner. Helped put Ted to the bath, now exhausted again. Grabbing a Hot Coldrex and off to bed again...

still not fit and back in bed. I hate not feeling fit enough to look out of my eyes without squinting.

@schuilr Van harte met je verjaardag Robin! Enjoy yourself! Heel veel plezier van de week in Lviv. Ik wens je ook heel veel geluk met Dasha!

Anyone experiences with the Epson Stylus SX515W All-in-one printer? http://ping.fm/p3OQx Please let me know if it is worth it.

For the first time since arriving back from Brielle feeling slightly alive again!

Completely baffled by Kabouter Wesley. I don't get it... I watched a bunch of his movies and don't see it getting funny.

interesting to see that our janitor gives permission to people to park in our garage, outside the parkingspots.

Flu shot not received well. Cold, shivering and general malaise reign my body. So off to bed it is.

Ted suited up!

Off to bed after a lazy day and really lazy eve of watching movies. Preparing for a day at the farm tomorrow!

Desert tonight: Pomegranate! I see a new tradition growing :)

Christmas dinner: boerenkool met spekjes

Got our second flu shot today. That's a new one, getting shots from a GP on Christmas Day...

Trying to put Ted to bed seems to be a bit of an ordeal right now. One tooth is about to come through and hurting him a lot.

What is wrong in Netherlands with hosting. There are no hosting companies that actually provide something similar to these: webhostinggeeks.com

RT @pierre RT @jesus Don't even get me started on the shit MY dad says.

Oh dear... I actually see snow falling from the sky. This means we truly have a white Christmas.

Happy christmas from our early boy!

When you think about it, that poor lamb we ate tonight at least died for a very good cause: wonderful dinner!

Table getting prepared for dinner!

Desperately awaiting the huge lamb-leg which is roasting in the oven already for 3 hours... Smells divine!

@volkanb well done man! 92 average is way above average! You deserve at least some nice beer tonight I'd say!

Great christmas song "Ik ben een kerstbal": http://ping.fm/pCvec (song starts at 3:07)

Just heard "Flappie" for the first time this year. Apparently I have not had the radio switched off long enough...

Up and about since 6 this morning. Thanks for letting me sleep in Ted!

A plate you just have to lick clean!

The jukebox has landed. Not on it's final destination yet though...

One of the presents i got from my colleagues. The other one is still in the car. Photos follow as soon as we've found a spot!

Going out for some groceries, then off to the Marktplaats office since I was requested to show my face there once more :)

At the hairdresser with the family!

Ted decided sleep is for idiots and he seems to think he is not an idiot.

@aikomastboom enjoy dinner man! You only turn 35 once!

Back from millenium shopping at CCCP-Amsterdam!

Slowly prepping to go out for groceries in CCCP-Amsterdam.

Last nights spareribs have not done me good...

Tedster just had his bath and is being put to bed. Getting ready for a slaughtering of freshly baked spareribs now!

Back from doing groceries at the butcher. Having some tea with a few chapters of Stephen Donaldson.

Better late than never. Trying to defrost and save our strawberries.

Tedster off to bed, Nadia off shopping, Volkan is busying himself on how and where to get shaved and whether or not to go to the hairdresser

Ted let us sleep in till 8:30 this morning! When we woke he was calmly playing in bed and outside it was still snowing nicely!

Had a great day! Played out in the snow, picked a fight with my hosting party and won, had wonderful dinner. On to a great evening!

out in the snow.

Snowy Flevopark.

Nice early morning in a white Amsterdam! Apparently it snowed somewhat again overnight.

First time this winter that we have the heating on! Our new home rules!!

Red done as well!

Grey mainly done. Next up, red!

midsession break. Starting on the colours in a few minutes @ vibestattoo

Off to face the cold on the way to Vibes. Next tattoo I guess I should go to a place reachable by car!

Weird feeling, not having my own PC anymore. Nadia walked in and asked "what are you doing with my computer?" Got to get used to that one!

Nadia and Ted let me sleep in today! Awesome! Now having a wonderful Latte and waking up. Mentally prepping for 3hrs of vibesTattoo

Christmas at diageo. All the liquor one can imagine!

Guess there's something leaking in the garage!

nice to run into @chrisprill and @bobontour on oz last days in the Marktplaats office!

about to let www.dban.org loose on my PC. will render me offline for quite a while though...

who the hell is Wolter Kroes? He's out here singing, post off...

master wolzak

apparently there's something demis doesn't and Wez does like. Check Wesley Hall's profile on facebook for more.

Listening to Gershwin early in the snowy morning. Is there a nicer way to get up than that?

Ted and Nadia out in the snow!

snow in the amsterdam!

Nice idea "pocketMod" http://ping.fm/EWGEj

Considering whether or not to use Ning for rebuilding qa-rocks.com. Seems a capable system, not sure yet if I like the limitations though.

Really curious what the Marktplaats ratio would be. Or the Spil ratio for that matter: http://ping.fm/zsvPZ

Curious to see what www.softwaretestingclub.com and www.fat-nl.ning.com, both testing-social-sites, are going to bring me. So far just mail.

Crap, I received 9 endorsements, which is awesome, but now I have to return them of course... that's quite some writing still to be done.

Our very own stevie wonder!

Nice visualization of browser usage on the web: W3Schools Browser marketshare http://ping.fm/NvVAK

Curious to start working with Rally in Januari. Will have to see what bugtracker we're going to deploy there, assuming rally is insufficient

Ted found himself a present bag with some toys!

I am really in dire need of doing something useful with QA-rocks.com. The current site really sucks big time.

Just ordered some wines at www.africanlifestyle.nl We had them during @MartijnKroon 's goodbye drink. Excellent wines!

Just watched the wordt anti-smoking campaign ever. It pretended to be a "How I met your mother" episode! That show is going downhill fast.

Our christmas tree this year..

Interesting experience, waiting at the Russian side of the Russian embassy. Weird things happen here!

Very fancy public toilets in Den Haag!

Off to the last VvE meeting of this year.

Packed all my personal crap from around my desk. All that's left now is a box styrofoam airplanes.

Going to spend some time today endorsing some people who endorsed me :)

Very nice goodbye gesture from my friends at CFS. Thanks!

"yes", "sometimes" and "no" just don't cut it for a questionnaire. I really miss "mostly" ...

Ted is very happy at the butcher

Ted is studying hard how to give feedback.

having some goodbye drinks!

@hkolk ... there is no snow ...

What is up with this world? Batteries were stolen out of my bike headlights, in our private garage!

Desperate need for coffee and food after a night of comatose sleep. Ted was exhausted so slept the whole night till just now!

Ted is refusing to go to sleep without mama home today. So he's out of bed again since leaving him cry makes no sense.
