Sa!

I stole this from Ida's FB;

"Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."

So be nice, I'm fucking fighting here!

Early morning...

Breakfast time in Póvoa. Thank you grandma. Exactly what I needed after a night of none sleeping.

I just heard words from Espinho. I'm working from home today. Thank God. I look like shit. Later on I'm gonna put a lot of make-up on. Just for fun. I like fun.

3:45 No Sleep

I know I should sleep. I wish I could. This has been a strange night.
Sometimes I wonder what I'm doing. Am I creating this?
I'm longing for my island. I need to sit there right now.
Right now.
But would it get better?

This weekend has been upside down.
I'm feeling upside down.
Just an hour before I should get up.
There's no use now.

"It's way to late to think of someone I would call now. The neon signs got tired red eyed flights help the stars out. I'm safe in a corner just hours before me. I'm waking with the roaches the world has surrendered. I'm dating ancient ghosts (the ones I made friends with). The comfort of fireflies long gone before daylight."

Fun and cooooolness!

It helps to wish! I had so much fun the last couple of days. I'm the funmaster! Or André is. Or Carla. Hard to say. Might be the mix. Mix is good. I love mixes! Not toothpaste and oranges, but more or less all the rest. By the way, Carla is so cool. Maybe as cool as me, it's hard to say ;0)

The weekend in Ponte de Lima was wicked. It ended with an afterparty in a church with jesters and fools from Spain and the Universe, with beers and magic, with a guitar and songs but never La Bamba. It was... just was.

Tonight I'm going to Ricardos birthday dinner. I have no idea what to bring him. Because I should. He is also cool. And funny. I'm sure it will be good, the dinner that is. It's in one of my favourite restaurants in Porto, no IT IS my favourite. Yam yam! Tomorrow I sooo have to go to the gym. Bad me! Bad kitten!

We're having a couchsurfer now. His name is Craig. He is from Austrailia, but André says New Zealand. Isn't that the same? (Whoops!) He's looking for poo trees, it's a little bit strange, but we like him anyways. And depite that he's cool too. It's not easy being new! ;0)

"Some boys take a beautiful girl, and hide her away from the rest of the world. I want to be the one to walk in the sun. Oh girls they wanna have fun"

Longing for Svea...

I'm bored. Very bored. Crazy bored. I miss a fun life, no, correction, I miss a funnier life. I miss relaxed friends with old memories. I miss people who wants to do things, not just go to bars and cafés. I miss sitting in the grass with strawberries and best friends. I miss long walks with stops for tea. I miss hugs from tiny arms. I miss playing cards with my family. I miss having fun without everybody feeling like a beer. I miss going to the cinema. I miss working at O'learys. I miss my country.

I keep on waiting, waiting on the world to change...

For two days I have more or less been waiting. I must say, waiting is one of my less favourite thing to do. We can almost go as far as I hate it. And why choose Portugal then, you ask, and well, true true. As always you have to take the good with the bad. No the other way around. Ah, you know what I meen!

To another thing on the subject: On the 4th of april I applied for my portuguese social security number. I got a papper as a proof until the real card was going to arrive. It was valid for one month, that meens until the 4th of may. Still no card or any word about it. So, I try to talk to people about this, asking what to do. The answer I get; just wait, it's normal. WTF! Of course it's normal if nobody says anything and just accept! I go crazy with this kind of things. Speak up, complain, ask to know more and especially know your rights! So, I'm asked to sit by and wait, although sometimes I heard that if you get a fine, you can sometimes wait because it happens that it gets lost in the system. Hallelulja! Sounds perfect. Or? Bureaucracy is wonderful. So, I'm thinking, where should I go? Who do I talk too? In times like this I remember I'm an alien. In many ways.

I'm gonna work on the island this summer. That's a good goodigoodgood thing. I'm longing for the walks in the forrest and the quiet time on the rocks. I hope the cats will like it too, if we get a place to live that is! They are going to become portuguese. What a mess to bring them here. But they're worth it. My son and daughter. Maybe not the ones my mother had in mind when she was asking about grandchildren, but you get what you get. I love my furry little ones. And everybody else have to love them too! Boohhaa!

A new days is becoming afternoon more or less. My man is sleeping. It's saturday today and for every minute the day is passing. I need a hobby. I should study, I could clean, I should hang the laundry, I could answer some e-mails, I should go to the gym and I could take a shower. I'll call a friend instead. Ta ta!

Aliens in Portoland...

So, she came, she saw, she won. Isn't that the expression? More or less at least. We had a great week, refused time by the computer, it has been vacation for me too. Now I have a lot to do, but that's a different story. I will not write anything about what just have been, a picture says more than thousand words... Then many pictures have to say even more. :0)

Time flies too godamn fast when you have fun!
