Bom 2010

E é isso.

Deixemo-nos de resoluções.

29.12.09

Foi Natal

Sei que não sou a única pessoa no mundo a fazer isto - e provavelmente a sentir isto também não.

Como Ferrero Rochers por camadas: primeiro a parte com amêndoas, depois a bolachas e depois o chocolate.


Quando esta sequência se arruína, fico chateada e mais vale deitar logo tudo fora porque é uma mistura de sabores insuportável.

25.12.09

Estava a pensar em reconstruir o me photoblog que tinha com o Serrasqueiro num blog.
É que fui das únicas pessoas que salvou o blog para o computador antes de aquilo ir tudo ao ar.

Gostava de fazer isso com o blog do Miguel, que na verdade tinha mais impacto na minha vida que o meu próprio blog. Mas já me disseram qe não pode ser.

and yet another game

1- Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random” or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to "Random quotations" or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page... is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days” or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together.

5 - Post it with this text in the "caption" and TAG the friends you want to join.





bem, calhou isto...

Transcendências CANON: they can.

Hoje ligaram-me de manhã da Canon. Não atendi porque obviamente estava a dormir, então o senhor deixou uma sexy mensagem de voz que dizia:

Sim, Dona Raquel, é da Canon, é só para avisar que a sua lente está reparada pode vir busca-la.

Eu sei que estava a dormir, mas tenho a certeza - agora - que tenho a lente em casa há cerca de duas semanas, depois de ter cancelado a reparação porque é porra de cara.

Coloca-se a questão: São eles que são muito bons e reparam as lentes telepaticamente? Ou serão eles tão pouco organizados que ainda pensam que lá deixei algo que não deixei?


Hmmm...

Recordo com saudade os dias em que podia andar descalça dentro de casa.

Antes dos meus novos vizinhos.


Recordo com saudades os tempos que não procurei imagens em macro da praga que tenho em casa.

Sindroma concerto-solidão

Desde que comecei a trabalhar para o FestivaisVerao, há dois anos que tenho ido a tudo e mais alguma coisa. Vou a todos os concertos que quero. Isso está a tornar-me apática, já não gosto de ir a concertos como gostava, já não tenho paciência para ouvir coisas novas, passar tardes a sacar álbuns de bandas que nunca tinha ouvido falar e passar-me a ouvi-las. O ir sozinha não ajuda.

Hoje em Franz Ferdinand senti que foi um concerto óptimo mas que não tinha com quem o aproveitar.

Where are your friends tonight?

Estou por isso a considerar a suspensão dos meus serviços. Ter um material fotográfico tão ranhoso e já em tão mau estado não ajuda muito a coisa.

Enfim, sei lá. Já sei que amanhã me esqueço disto...

A razão pela qual pinto as unhas perdeu hoje todo o sentido. Tirei o verniz e roí as mãos duma ponta à outra. Pronto.
