N.E.R.D.

Second attempt to ride the bike – I get lost 2 times. That should be fine for a starter, right?! :)

I meet some long-time-no-see elementary school friends – Anca and Ana with their husbands. We have a dinner served by an Egyptian at an Argentinean restaurant where I can bet the meat is plain Dutch. I tour them the classical – Red light district. And then I go on -

Hey, sister, have you heard of Heineken Hall?! No, what’s that? Oh, then drop it.. I just wanted to know where it is.. nevermind. I’ll check it on 9292 (that’s the site you check how you get around in the Netherlands).

Ok, I get there, but where’s the damn thing?! And how big is it anyway?! Is it supposed to be next to the Ajax stadium?! 5 persons asked out of which 2 were standing in front of it and had no idea it was IT – I got there. Yes, smartass, I also didn’t know it was IT, but at least I found out.. In the meanwhile, is calling Anna coming from her way from The Hague to Amsterdam. She some how didn’t have her GPS on, so she needed to rely on her once-worked-in-Amsterdam skills. And it was just fine. – are you there yet? – are you there yet? In the meanwhile I was getting the damn chips for money. I always think it’s a joke. Have you ever played with plastic chips when you were young? Pretending they were real money? And thinking one day you’d have the real money?! Well, now I have the real papers and coins and I give them away for plastic chips at any festival or concert which comes on – I’m such a player, reminds me of my childhood, my friend.

How do you see from upstairs?! Better then? We find the perfect spot and then we shake our blue jeans.. no I think Anna has a skirt. She’s the skirt Amazon, I’m the pants Diva. I fancy us having our dancing duo – we can give you the polka, the jam, the funky and the soul dance. We’ll pole dance and we’ll break-dance for you tonight. N.E.R.D. is brilliant!! 

Next day, I can only hear – Sooner or later………….
