The Distant Past

So yeah, I was married with a woman, an unimaninably long time ago. Looking back at myself, at my life back then, I don’t even understandstand who I was. So apparently my ex wife is now hanging in the Rijksmuseum. “Jeugdcultuur in de jaren 80 en 90”. That’s her around 1993 with the guy she […]
