hoy se celebra el día de la Independencia de México
y dijimos: muchas gracias señores Españoles, por las pulgas, la guerra y la matanza
pero ya vayanse de regreso a su casa...

cafeína y cuentos de aparecidos
then sometimes coffee is not enough
newspaper morning & is not news
the paper is from 3 days ago
took me a while to figure that out
the date, the time, and the colors of an expected soul
this sunset from almost a year ago
from 2005, september 19
some days seem like minutes ago
a year with its seconds
vanishing but not lost

george gershwin alone
at the distinguished san diego's old globe theatre
tonight
hershey felder did a good job on the play
george gershwin alone
although i didn't expect this kind of play at all...
one-shot music play, no intermission
over an hour
it was different, good, but after all not of my fondest choice
and then he threw a little surprise at the end
& got the public singing along
freaking george gershwin's songs
which makes it the most fun monologue
-yes it was just him
that i have seen in a while
but...
a well-known director
and nice work on the lighting
projecting old photos, graphics
and scenes from the 20's new york
over one long tailed steinway & sons
and a minimalistic almost scenario
of george gershwin's own...
the music
didn't expected either
was good to see & of course listen to
a piano well-payed by an actor-performer
he did the complete version of
raphsody in blue at the end
which is always nice to listen to, oh! live...
good night
point
staring at one point,
over an hour or who knows?
feet naked against kitchen floor
fixated
fixed –on
window, –the front
can’t turn around while
blending stinted-peace
with lumps of involuntariness
grows
the point is deeply white
blinding
enrapturing
agonizing lure
on, –not off
around it
little light-purple flowers
some barely-green leaves
in a blurring twirl
skip, tap, smile, hop
while they wait
while they hope
central and white
still
the point motionless
moves
if i could just move
if i could just turn away
i wouldn’t stop
again
as i did before

M83
because back in april 2005
i got a plane ticket to NYC
just to see them in concert...
(ok the concert was on my birthday day and i saw a sign there)
yet another superb french band
hope you like them too
M83
from their album before the dawn heals us
the song Don't save us from the Flames
a lovely video & story of a girl who very much likes ghosts..
being in love with one, take a look...
A piece of brain in my hair...
A ghost screaming your name...

Voltaire provides the quote of the day
Voltaire once said:
'Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.'
but he also said:
'A witty saying proves nothing.'
what leaves me right to where i started... mmm?
oh, well! to deal with the circle of the unknown doubted, yet always well-regarded, life...
where the only condition that is not to doubt, is the certainty that one day we will all die...
(but when?)
therefore, try to enjoy in the meantime...

bad news and good news
the bad news
as i parked my car tonight
i hit a piece of sidewalk i didn't see
then tired starts to deflate...
it has a big hole (about 2.5 cms slot)
and by now the left side in on the floor
tomorrow to fix it
tonight was too late to call the tire place
i need to buy a new one
the good news
before the slashed tired
and after work
i stopped by one of the cinephile's best friends in san diego
that is
kensigton video
and old fashioned store
where you can find, anything! almost
any cult, foreign, old, mute, classic, or of any genre
film that was ever made
and they did have what i was looking for
carlos saura's film "deprisa, deprisa"
they just had it on VCR tape, but that's how i have 1/2 of my own movies too
so my VCR is ready to roll
tomorrow tuesday will be movie night for sure
this recommendation came from a nice remarkable source
so i am sure it is worth to watch!
oh yes, one thing i don't need with a spanish movie
is the english subtitles...
september 11 note
another sad anniversary
being 2001, i was working then at the san diego blood bank
i remember how the blood donors made a line that needed to go around the main blood bank building, there were so many blood donors, that they didn't fit in the building
the blood bank staff (me included) worked for 3 days about 16 hrs per day, trying to assist the donors
i was intense to be there...
sadly these days, the blood levels for hospital use in san diego is so low that there's an emergency shortage in blood, sad how it seems that a tragedy needs to happen to call our attention

the squid and the whale
a superb film
i truly recommend it!
funny and ironical
sad and happy too
the acting is great
the kids characters are one fresh surprise
and with a cute web-site
the squid and the whale
and you have to watch it to find out why
it is linked to a pink floyd song

a late café
café cup 4.47 pm
not a good sign
tired, sleepy...
aura of the day
different from yesterday
and now a marvin gaye song started
not sure how made it to my hard disk
but doesn't fit now, although is a good song
my job is not hard
but...
designer (i know sounds fun)
but some days...
i usually administer my own time
the eternal double edged sword
therefore, i procrastinate
until creativity has to come
because the dead-line is barely open
or has closed
visual aid doesn't come easily around
not today
coffee and a thought of you
a view of your small photo again
a little pinch of energy might bring
a distant imaginary smile of yours while you sleep
and some caffeinated hope
the knee still... {and thanks for good wishes clare :)}
is bringing me down
seems like double of work to walk anywhere
every where
a mental chair, to seat back mentally & relax.. would be fine
for a change
