o teu topping, Luna. Espero que gostes, diria que são "gomas ácidas em feitio de ursinhos" ou mesmo "frutos vermelhos liofilizados".

Que giro

que é meter a vida toda em caixas e carragá-la daqui para ali. Frequentemente, duas vezes por ano, pelo menos.


Os frades Franciscanos devem ter tirado a ideia de despojo dos bens materiais depois de viverem como estudantes exilados.
Já fui comprar mais malas, já fui cravar caixas ao senhor da loja dos kebabs, já despachei camisolas justas e calças "bootcut" ("so 2004") para a OXFAM e mesmo assim ainda me sobram coisitas sem abrigo. Papéis com incrições enigmáticas, apontamentos, artigos que jamais irei ler, agendas velhas, 1000000 mill engenhocas de cozinha (uma coisa para separar a gema da clara, uma coisa para raspar cenouras, uma ainda para esmagar alhos...), luvas desemparelhadas. Vida preenchida, a abarrotar, diria mesmo. De bugigangas pelo menos.

A cumplicidade é provavelmente a coisa mais confortante do mundo. Tão bom quando um olhar, um meio soriso, um instante explicam tudo sem dizer nada. Escusa-nos a manchar com palavras que nunca chegam bem lá coisas simples e puras. Outros motivos haveria, como o próprio Chico e a música que é líndissima mas se não me canso de ver este vídeo é pelos olhares tansparentes e sorrisos de cumplicidade entre o Chico e o Caetano.

O que apetecia era ficar muito paradinha, tirar férias de mim só um bocadinho e voltar daqui a uns meses descobrindo um desfecho, bom ou mau, mas do qual eu pudesse lavar as minhas mãos e seguir em fente.

A resposta possível ao Criacionismo

"I’m sure you now realize how important it is that your students are taught this alternate theory. It is absolutely imperative that they realize that observable evidence is at the discretion of a Flying Spaghetti Monster. Furthermore, it is disrespectful to teach our beliefs without wearing His chosen outfit, which of course is full pirate regalia. I cannot stress the importance of this enough, and unfortunately cannot describe in detail why this must be done as I fear this letter is already becoming too long. The concise explanation is that He becomes angry if we don’t."

"You may be interested to know that global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of Pirates since the 1800s. For your interest, I have included a graph of the approximate number of pirates versus the average global temperature over the last 200 years. As you can see, there is a statistically significant inverse relationship between pirates and global temperature"

E quanto aos nossos eco-guerreiros

Alguém lhes explique, taditos, que é muito provável que o jantarzinho de ontem tenha sido transgénico (vulgo a soja que decerto comem, já que aposto numa taxa de vegetarianismo de 90%) .

Muda de vida

Perdida entre mil teorias, números e figuras meio abstractas, o bichinho de me levantar da cadeira, virar as costas ao computador e produzir qualquer coisa de pálpavel e com a qual me identifique intensifica-se. Falta o saber como e a coragem de arriscar pisar terreno desconhecido.

Entretanto inspiro-me na "loucura" de outros. Loucura bem sucedida, entenda-se. Os "smoothies" são deliciosos e a embalagem linda (e reciclável). O marketing da companhia convence qualquer "muesli eater-guardian reader" e, talvez por isso, vendem como pãezinhos quentes apesar do preço:

"In the summer of 1998 when we had developed our first smoothie recipes but were still nervous about giving up our proper jobs, we bought £500 worth of fruit, turned it into smoothies and sold them from a stall at a little music festival in London. We put up a big sign saying 'Do you think we should give up our jobs to make these smoothies?' and put out a bin saying 'YES' and a bin saying 'NO' and asked people to put the empty bottle in the right bin. At the end of the weekend the 'YES' bin was full so we went in the next day and resigned."

"Their life is their show"

"Sunk in illusions and fantasies, far from the glorious past of the Bouvier family (Big Edie was Jackie Kennedy's paternal aunt), they bicker, sing pop love songs and live out a dream of elegance that is constantly contradicted by the mess and sadness around them.

In the films, Big Edie is a snappish, brusque-seeming lady who was once a talented singer and now seems to reside mostly in bed. Little Edie was a beauty in her youth but abandoned hopes for an acting-entertaining career in New York; she has spent most of her life with her mother. Occasionally they sing. But though Big Edie remembers the words and tunes, Little Edie often wanders off them. At one point, she wrongly sings and re-sings the lyrics to Victor Young's "Around the World in 80 Days" theme song until she drives you almost crazy.

Edie is also given to a bizarre, personal fashion style that consists of improvised skirts and constant high-style headwear covering her hair. (We never learn why.)

In fact, the two women are entertainers, and brilliant ones. But their life is their show--which is what the filmmakers cannily caught in "Grey Gardens" "

Em resumo, quero este DVD com urgência.

Note to self: life is not a musical...

"No one minds it at all
If I'm having a ball
This is a musical
And there's always someone
To catch me
There's always someone to catch me
There's always someone to catch me
There's always someone to catch me
When you fall
Why do I love you so much?
What kind of magic is this?
How come I can't help adore you?
You were in a musical."
Bkjork, Dancer in the Dark, In the musicals
..so if I fall, I must stand up by myself.

saudades de piqueniques em sítios secretos e pequenos almoços preguiçosos com jornal, café e mimos

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
