I have been making good use of my time at home, though it is weird to have so much time to myself. I was planning to do some work from home over the holidays, but I haven’t had time to do that. So to speak. Not that the things I am doing are so important, but I do enjoy them. Today I made a video-tape for my best friend. We’ve been friends since we were tiny, and though we haven’t seen much of each other since I moved away we still are. I made a tape of all kinds of programmes featuring the Osmonds, we were both huge fans long ago. And it actually was fun seeing all those old clips again. I listen to a different kind of music now, but it does bring back some great memories.
There is a craze in this country about a singer called Frans Bauer. I can’t really describe him, I don’t have any of his cds, and I don’t really like his music. He is huge though. And he also seems a bit of a caricature. I went to see my old lady friend last night to watch him at Christmas, and it was pretty funny. It is a kind of real-life soap, but somehow it isn’t very real. It is so definitely aimed at creating a certain image. Some bits are quite funny, but that is because they come straight out of all the joke books. What amazes me is that there are people who takes this seriously.
