Valentinesday never really had any significance to me. Heck, my own birthday don't have any significance to me! I think it is gewy and I'd rather not celebrate anything. But I find myself looking foreward to valentinesday this year. I actually want to go out for dinner, and/or watch a movie and so on...
Random: I have a feeling that Im going to be a soccermum in the future. Omg... A bit like Lynette Scavo?
Wait, that reminds me how much I miss watching shows like desperate housewives and sex and the city. I really had a great time following the characters lives. That applies to all series, and books. Especially those that have been a comfort for a long time.
I read this bookseries called heritage of sins (Arvesynd in norwegian) that followed the main character, Mali, that marries this wealthy farmer for the sake of his money. Actually, It was more like he bought her... Because her family needed the money. Anyways, the series is about her struggles as his wife, her relationship with him and neighbors, her constant battle against her mother in law that hates her - and then her affair with this guy, and how she ends up pregnant and spend her life lying about it. And this is just a TINY summary of TWO books out of 34! We follow her and her kid's lives in good and bad times -oh - and through world war 2.
I will never forget her story! I find myself thinking about her often. Wondering what happened to this or that or them... Missing all those times Mali spent in her bedroom, sitting by the window, looking up on the stars... Thinking, and wondering... crying and smiling. Dancing on the bedroomfloor... It is as if I was there, in that house. Like a ghost! The book is in motion inside my head.
In Norway these bookseries are very popular... And is often read by middelaged and old women ( - . - ) .. Ugh, some calls it for "Housewife porn", or something.
The picture on the book looks kinda stupid.... But I don't care. The content really appealed to me. LOL, In the beginning I wasn't even planning to read even one book.. I was just planning to read a page or two... But I didn't stop until I finished it. And then I found out that there were 32 books more... I had no Idea how consumed I would become.

Oh, I was actually going to write about my secret plan for valentinesday... But Im gonna spare it to later. :-)
