This weekend is been good. ^^

Friday night I went the cinema, to watch THE THREE BURIALS OF MELQUIADES ESTRADA. I've liked it as much as I kinew I would. Beautiful story and narrative, great landscapes, and that sense of surrealism that surrounds magical realism in south-american novels. Only told by a north-american. It's a bittersweet border tale, about lots of things: love, friendship, humankind, sanity, home...
Also, it was fun hearing Tommy Lee Jones talking in spanish.

Then, Saturday, I woke up really early to have a coofee with mina_murray before she began Esplai. It was not my initial idea, but I had to take some old clothes to the church, so.. all in all... I ended up waiting by the door for all the parents and children to arrive, and see them, even though I knew it was probably a bad idea. Not because it wasn't going to be nice, but because it was going to be nice. I mean, I know what I'm missing, and I know it's going to be a hard year. And hearing parents and children telling you how they miss you and want you to come back makes it even harder.
But it was nice still. And I took a pair of kisses and hughes with me ^^
Then, making me really proud of myself, I went to the gym!! I just swam, ok, but I attended, wich is the important thing. OH, and I discovered I need to buy a new swimsuit, mine is just totally transparent right now.
I felt refreshed all day, even if I could hardly open my eyes at night just out of tiredness. But let's not hurry, after the gym, I went shopping (groceries and meat), came home, helped Olga prepare some chicken with onions and garlic and prunes and then went to my parent's. We had an improvised family meal (my brother had calloed just this morning telling mum he was coming for lunch with his wife and children).
I love my nieces and I love my nephew... I couldn't take a nap as I intended, of course, because everytime I tried to lay down at the couch, Erin would come to ask me to play with her. Or Ona needed someone to lift her up to get something she wanted. Or Martí began crying.. I'm not complaining much, but I didn't sleep at all.

Then I went to mina_murray's, to watch Heroes, fourth episode... OMGSQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I love that series. And that ending, really... They can't just leave it there!!
Summary? Peter is desperate to be special, Nathan is desperate to be normal, Mohinder is just desperate. Claire's power is yuuuuic, and scary, but not scarier than Nikki's. And Issac's is creepy... way too creepy. And Hiro and his friend are just too cute.

Then, we went to a restaurant, to celebrate Sabina's birthday. She turned 25 yesterday. I had fun, even if I was falling asleep on my chair and my stomach was kind of closed due to sheer wearines.

And, finally, sunday... Today I've woken up real late. All morning I have just watched TV and read comics (that I will comment later). Then, after eating something, somethings have save it from being an uneventful sunday.
We have new chairs and a clothes stand that my sister-in-law's mother didn't want anymore and have just given us. We accepted becaus ewe needed some chairs, not really caring if chairs fitted our furniture, but.. they fit!! They are black with scarlet upholstery, just like our sofas and shelves. ^^
I've had a quick coofee with mina_murray (she must be the most mentioned person on my posts :P), and all the while I've tried to urge her to read Robin so I could comment it with someone.

Also, I've seen Lost, third season, second episode.
O_o That series keeps the cool and the creep.
And we have learned two things: Not speaking a language doesn't mean you are stupid, just as being hot and brute doesn't mean it either.
I want a Sawyer still. And a Jin.
Man, I think I'm developing a real crush on a TV character... But Sawyer is sooo cool and cute and hot and.. everything.

And now, I'm off to make croquettes. Let's see how they turn out.

This past weekend I went to Formentera, to see my little sister and have a little break.
Formentera is just the most beautiful place I've ever been. Ok. I haven't traveled that much but... wow. You know, a little island where everything is blue and green... No industries, only shepperds and fishers and tourism. No smoke, no polution, no traffic light, no blowing horns... no shouting...
The first day, after 11 hours on a ship plus other 25 minutes on a Ferry, my sis took me to a cute little restaurant near the Estany Pudent (the stinky lake XD). We ate paella while we watched the little green lizzards fight over the food, or just stand still on the sun. They were soooooooo cute...


Then, she took me to PUnta Barbaria, where there's one of the lighthouses, the one in LUcia y el Sexo. We entered the tiny cave and I took a lot of pics. We also visited one beach, were I could see one of the trees where fishermen hang their fishes to dry up... it was like.. ugh... It made me think of CVonan the bararian and films like that :P

Then, while she worked, I skin dived in the Estany des Peix (The fish lake), where water barely covered my waist and little fishes bite your feet. What amazed me the most was that the water was totally and absolutely transparent. I mean, I know that's what water is suposed to be, but I think I have never find any evidence of it.

See the rocks under the water??
I swam for an hour or so, completely ecstatic. Then, got to her house, did some more pics, got eaten alive by mosquitoes and waited for her to came from work (while we avoided the rain, that decided to fall just then). I got to met Maria, her housemate. She is a lovely girl, full of energy and with a bright smile. I'm happy my sis is in good company. Then, she took me to an italian restaurant, where we had supper and then, we went to sleep, totally exhausted.


Estany d'Es peix

Next day, my sis was at work when I got up. I had some breakfast, avoiding the ants in the sugar, watched some TV and then, I went to fetch her at work and my cousin and his friend at the port. (He was in IBIZA and came visiting). We rented some motorbikes and went to S'es Calò. There's wherer I difinitely fell in love with the island. That's the reason why.


We ate paella again and then we went to La MOla, to the other lighthouse, in the tallest part of the island. There's a little market there, and the most impressing views.

Then, my sis was late for work, so we rushed to La Savina, where she went to work and my cousin and his friend went back to Ibiza. Then, I went back to the Estany and swam again. While I waited for my sis. This time, I cooked for her, some of my delicious taglaithelli with wiped cream and onion. I also folded her clothes and washed her dishes :P
We were suposed to go to some bar afterwards, but she was so tired we just had some beers at home and went to sleep.

My mum called then, to tell us My nephew was just borned.


His name is Martí and he is soooooo cute... And Ona and Erin are really happy with him ^^ Even if Ona seems not to understand it all. Poor thingie.

Anyway, next day I had to come back... and I used nearly every trasport avaliable. Ship, bus, plane, train and car. Then, go to Sabadell, to meet the new born, and then get home, wash clothes, cook and sleep.

I miss my sis already, and I miss Formentera too.


One last pic to end this really long post.


Thanks for reading this long.

They say I'll start over at Matutano (ten minutes from home) this same tuesday. Let's hope for it. Even if I like the people in here, Viladecans, where my new employees have their Central Offices, this expending lots of money in trains and having at least one hour travel is not my idea of an ideal job.

Plus, I'm experimenting a kind of insatisfaction with my life. Not enterely, though, but.. I feel I'm morose and lazy, and I'm like taht when I don't feel ok with my surroundings. It can be my sister's trip, of course, but I know it's that timetable I've been having this past tow weeks. I'm alone most of the time during the day, and I'm not made to be alone. Really. There's people who can't be around people, and I can't be alone. I need to socialize. I can survive, of course, and I'll adjust if I need to, but I don't feel righ when I don't have people around me.

Anyway, next week I'll work finally ten minutes from home, and then I'll have all the time in the world.

In other news, I'm hungry and in need of going to the toilet. Quite urgently.

THis is the most boring time of teh day at work. I'm completely alone in here, and everybpdy else is eating... even the users, so....
(Yeah, now I'm part of a computer support helpdesk, but all I do for now is pick up the phone and answer emails...)

Anyway, I'm alone and bored, and everybody is eating. And today my little sister is going to Formentera, and I'm already missing her.
I'm feeling a bit down today. Everythign seems pointless. This job, my writting, waiting for the money to come only to pay lots of debts and not buying a single thing for me...
Even my keyboard is broken... BAH.

I know it's only that I don't want my sister to go.
