It kind of hurt my feelings the other day, when my bf asked me (while I was lying on the couch, doing nothing) if I’m planning to write part two of ‘the worst blogger’. Coz I’m that bad at this. But come to think about it.. I really do suck. Hard. And the worst part is, I really do want to write more and share my magnificent ideas :) it’s just hard to get use to having this new responsibility – keeping you guys informed and such. The bright side of it is (for you, not me) that my darling honey bunch is going away for a year in about a week. This makes me believe that I will be more diligent in the future, mostly because I’ll be all alone and lonely and sad and will have to make myself useful by doing things. And writing this blog is definitely one of them. You understand now the ‘u not me’ part I assume.
Anyways I have some major (and I do mean MAJOR) news to share. As many of you don’t know or even dare to think so (coz am that fabulous) I’m pretty much what popular society would describe as a ‘geek’. Or worse.. hipster geek. You’ve seen I haz zie raybans. I have the bob hairdo. And I own a snow white cat

(of which pict are promised and in the making of compilation, but I still got u a sneak peak.. u know.. coz I’m that nice), because dogs are sooo pedestrian! And because I have a pretty bad allergy on them. I also like indie music.. blaaaah.. so boring. Given these new facts about me, you probably won’t be surprised when I say I also like SciFi novels. Aaaaaaand of course one of my favorite writers is George R.R. Martin. But to give me some credit I’ve known (as oppose to most of my hipster friends) his works for quite some time.. even before the ‘game of thrones’ series were even announced. Yeah, coz I’m not mainstream :)
So anywho.. dear old Georgie has announced a new book! (been waiting for it quite some time now, bout 6, 7 years.. 8 maybe) And in order of promoting this new bestseller a holy event took place. He came to signing to Slovenia. You can imagine my overflowing joy! I was a jibber jabber star struck fan, annoying everyone around me with my anticipation, probably the whole 2 weeks before it even happen. Surely I was excited even before, but those last 2 weeks were the hardest on the one closest to me (having to put up with me). And the nervously awaited day came at last! I was there about an hour and a half before the official signing should begin and I waited for measly 3 hours to get to him. And when I did.. oh man, it was a spectacular blur :) I have this habit of talking senselessly when I’m nervous and nervous I was! I started the ‘conversation’ with babbling about how Tyrion is also my favorite character (as its his <3) and he seemed happy enough about hearing that. But after that I sort of jumped on the crazy train. I started saying how I love all the names in the books, they’re really special and how I can’t wait to get pregnant and name my baby after one of them. And how it was faith that I found one of the promotional bookmarks with mistake (blank page/side) so he can sign it. And then (of course) I asked if I can take picture with him even though he specifically said in the beginning how he doesn’t mind if we photograph him during the signing but not to ask him to take pics with us because it would take too long. But he said I can! And I was soooo happy that when I started walking around the table on his side I tripped on the rug and almost fell in his lap. All in all a very interesting experience. Special. Heartwarming. Lovely. I felt even more special when I found out that not all of the fans got personalized signing in the book from him. I did! :)

Well, this was kind of a high light of my summer. Like I said – I’m a geek.
I would really like to write some more about this and to relive this magnificent experience, but I have a dinner to cook. I normaly never cook.. not really good at it. But since my bf is leaving shortly I have this urge to cook for him. Maybe so he'll have a better memory of me, when he's away :)
