stalkerbunnyFeeling conflicted because I've missed Mathilda and other friends in Stockholm, but I'll miss my family as well, and then there's all the stress of trying to be an independent adult that I'd gotten a break of...
Meanwhile, yesterday and today I visited the local municipality center for the yearly fair. Yesterday it was pretty quiet, so mostly we (me, my dad and one sister) visited the library and the traveling amusement park. Which was fun, it's been years since I've got to go on any rides. Even though we just went on five.
Today, I found a book I liked as a child (and had wanted to see again) in the books the library was selling away. I'd forgotten most of the plot, but it's embarrassingly obvious in hindsight why I liked it.
Basically, it's about a family of black cats that unexpectedly gets a ginger kitten, the embarrassment of which is not aided be her being all *different* in behavior too, even being friends with a dog. In the end she leaves home, makes friends and family of her own and becomes a successful rock star, after which there is a reconciliation with her parents who now accept even their ginger grand kids. Also the illustrations are fun and expressive.
Some of the illustrations by Josef Wilkon.
Rosalinda's father Kasimir meeting her for the first time
Kasimir mourning his misfortune (not featured, him getting silver hairs from the worry)
Rosalinda getting out of line
The last straw
and Rosalinda returning home after becoming succesful.
The black kitten was named after her father. D'aww.
