Days, no, weeks<\/em> fly by and my Chronicles art journal contains old pages I did not post yet. I have the feeling I keep on running behind so today I show you two week-pages from March (and OH-MY we are half-way in April already!) You can tell from how the pages look that they were made fast… I don’t have much time lately to work in the art journal long so I seek for faster techniques to make the pages.<\/p>\n

The Chronicles of Marit 2015 – Week 13<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"2015-chronicles-week13\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Week 13 shows the ‘event’ that happened to me that week… I published this post<\/a> on a Friday morning, talking about the Bay City Rollers and later in the afternoon I received a message from Twitter… now that is not uncommon as I receive emails from Twitter on a regular base (you know, messages like “you may know these persons on Twitter” or “this-and-that person is now following you on Twitter”) but this one was rather special as it says: “Les McKeown<\/a> is now following you on Twitter”….. WHAAATTT???<\/p>\n

Les McKeown… lead singer of the Bay City Rollers<\/a>, hero from my youth… really? Is he following me on Twitter? And is this the ‘real’ Les McKeown anyway or just another evildoer, tweeting under a famous-person’s name?<\/p>\n

So I called my beloved to my computer and asked him to investigate this Twitter-person. My beloved is a magician you know… So he did his thing (checking IP addresses and stuff) and came with the final answer: IT.IS.THE.REAL.LESLIE.MCKEOWN<\/p>\n

I felt like a teenager again, did a happy dance and spend the rest of the Friday-evening with a big grin on my face, calling from time to time into the air (and to my beloved) “HEY, you know what? LES is following me on Twitter!”<\/p>\n

Now this was a few weeks ago but typing this blogpost, I am again smiling.<\/p>\n

OK.. some of you may not be familiar with the Bay City Rollers… after all, it was ‘a long time ago and far, far away’… so here’s a link to their biggest hit (at least in the Netherlands that was) S.A.T.U.R.D.A.Y.night<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Do you ever feel like a 12-year old again? When? What triggered the feeling?
\nLet me know, and have a great day: Keep on Rollin’<\/strong> \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
