Congratulations!
Just got back. I stayed a few hours longer than expected at my friend's. She's been on TV recently, a documentary about war graves shot when she went
to visit her grandfather's final resting place in Thailand. We had a great time, talking and singing.
The two nights at my BF's.... well... I didn't sleep. Not for the right reasons, though. I haven't gotten used to sharing a bed with him yet. Neither
has he. We both had huge bags under the eyes today. I'd love to spend more time with him but we need to resolve the sleeping arrangements somehow.
Besides overcoming the distance.

Thanks for the congrats. I'm now trying to make the most of my holiday. From the 13th of February, it's nose to the grindstone.
Bonny, if you guys really like each other I'm sure you'll figure something out. I'm happy for you.
We're not visiting the Netherlands this time around, otherwise I'd suggest meeting up for a toast. Although, our long term plans are to move to
Europe, so it'll most likely happen at some time in the future.

Pity, I'd have loved to meet you! Enjoy your holiday!
It's quite a conundrum isn't it?  The ideal way to overcome the distance
is staying longer, and the best way to overcome the sleeping problem is staying for a shorter time. It's like a sitcom brewing!

The AIVD (Dutch CIA) has an annual Christmas puzzle that I first did in 2014, this is my third attempt. It's the most difficult set of puzzles I even
bother to try. Just solved 1 question in full so far.
This one's based on cryptography.
On the one question I just solved in full, I was given 6 ciphers:
tcjn
xdaaw mnzlyomn
acn aqisjwq
jq sot wdpne hjnnq edws
qlmjr koodsy
ciicp
pqtqkjg qj pqtqkjg
Every one of these ciphers uses a different encoding. Yet they're all connected.

Way too many famous people dying. I don't like this.

One of my bags was stolen or lost today. I checked my route several times and asked in shops if they had seen it.
There wasn't anything of value in the bag (possibly a little plastic bag or some groceries I forgot last time) but the bag itself is made to hang down
your bicycle, we always use them when we go for groceries, they're hard to come by and when they're new they aren't cheap.

Sorry if I've been a bit quiet lately - I'm not sure why but for about a month I've been feeling terrible, eye pain, nausea... I'm at a loss now, I
don't see the end of it...

I'm not happy at all to hear that Bonny. Is the medical fraternity not able to figure it out?

They weren't the first time and a second-opinion is not covered by insurance.

I don't understand. Are you saying that if you continue to feel sick and return to the doctor, it's not covered?

And a good new year to you and Aqua too.
We have politicians in Australia trying to do the same thing to our health system and so far they've been held at bay. Our health system, Medicare,
has none the less gradually deteriorated somewhat over the last few decades.
So why is it only you, me and Aqua here? Where is Punky and why can't others come here? Maybe I'm putting them off!
We have friendly conversations here and the atmosphere is preferable to that other place.
I hope Huck is going alright as well.

I don't know why Punky's staying away now...
I'm still at the insane AIVD cipher puzzle, inching forward. I wish I knew more about cryptography.
