O Titulo diz tudo! Já aqui tinha avisado que ia mudar de poiso e chegou a hora...
Vou deixar de postar aqui (apesar de usar a conta para ver a minha friend's page e saber o que se vai passando nas vossas vidas ;P e para poder continuar a comentar nos vossos livejournals).
Mudei-me para o Blogspot, para o seguinte endereço:
o blog ainda está meio em obras.. afinal de contas se a Expo'98 abriu com a pintura ainda fresca e os homens das obras a sair pela porta dos fundos porque não posso eu abrir as portas ao blog sem que ele esteja totalmente pronto? Bom... de qualquer maneira um blog é sempre work in progress!
Quem estiver interessado pode visitar e colocar o blog nos bookmarks, prometo não demorar tanto tempo a postar novamente (lá, claro!)
Do Dubai a gente tem aquela imagem de modernidade que não é habitual quando pensamos no mundo Árabe. Arranha-Céus; ilhas artificiais, negócios, etc. etc. etc.
The new blog is almost ready. The domain has been registered and the blog is already up but I'm still testing it and will use the last 2-3 days to tweak the layout. Friday it should be ready for my first post (and this LJ will be shutdown... or at least no longer updated!)

This tower has been crumbling for four years now (since 2003!). That's a reasonable time in the real world (and a very long time in cyber space).
In fact I think the tower is about to collapse. I've sustained it for as long as I possibly could and now it's time to move on and move into a new ( but also crumbling) tower. So I've decided I will be leaving Livejournal and I will create a new crumbling tower elsewhere - I have yet to decide where!
I will keep this account to check on the friends I've made and to be able to comment on their Livejournals without having too much work identifying myself, but as soon as my new corner of cyber space is ready I will no longer post here.
When the time comes I will give you all the directions to my new "home" so you can forward my mail and visit me! :)
festa de aniversário do aspirinas + performance de La Mizéh, ontem
[01 Apr 2007|06:30pm]

Pois que a festa de aniv. do Aspirinas, ontem, foi a melhor dos últimos tempos! O décor estava a meu gosto (comic book covers); as bebidas pareciam fluir mais rápidamente que em anos anteriores; o stock genético do sexo masculino estava acima da média e com muitas novidades. E depois tivemos La Mizéh!
Que dizer dessa embaixatriz do transformismo? Ela que é uma lenda do avant-garde e uma das estrelas maiores do firmamento das drag queens! Bom... após demasiados anos afastada das luzes da ribalta a casa do Aspirinas foi um palco demasiadamente pequeno para aquela que é uma Deusa para as meninas do conde redondo.
Qual Ninfa Artémis, La Mizéh (de Espinhozel) levou ao rubro todos aqueles que assistiram às suas duas performances. Sim! Foram duas estonteantes performances com músicas potentes de batida hipnótica e fortes vozes femininas (diria que quasi she-males), acompanhadas de elaboradas coreografias neo-80s e algum gore à mistura (a dado momento La Mizéh ter-se-á auto-mutilado nas laminas da única ventoinha que pouco conseguia fazer para baixar a temperatura da sala).
La Mizéh mostrou que continua em forma mesmo depois de tão prolongada ausência dos palcos, e mostrou também que continua dona e senhora dos nossos corações.
Surgiu loira, vestida com umas calças coleantes que lhe realçavam as (ainda) sensuais coxas e com uns aconchegos de leopardo sintético e do alto de uns belos botins brancos de recortes surreais, e brindou-nos com hits de Alaska, bananarama e Bonnie Tyler, entre outras.
Também estiveram muito bem os DJs de serviço - em especial Andy Punch, que ainda nos brindou com uma performance imprevista: em dueto com uma outra starlet da nossa praça, Andy Punch fez um maravilhoso playback (com impecável coreografia!) de uma Música de Dreamgirls.
That's what everybody wants the top guys at HBO/BBC to do: Renew Rome for at least a third season. With only two episodes to go until the end of the second season it seems highly unlikely that will happen, though... Most actors, writers, directors, set and costume designers, extras, etc. will by now be involved in other projects and so will Cinecittá studios, near Rome (the filming of Rome took over about 50% of the studios capacity, or so I've read).
HBO claims the series was too expensive (it certainly looked like it!); the first season alone cost more than 100 million dollars.
Anyway.. there's always hope they'll bring back Rome though it's highly unlikely. There are already online petitions to bring back the show (last episode airs this month in the US) so if you're a fan, please take some time to help!
Fans of ROME may want to focus their attention now on THE TUDORS, from Showtime...
This year's songs are already online... For me this was the big winner. (notice the cute guy doing back vocals.. i think he was from Operação Triunfo but can't remember exactly who he is). Anyway... it's a shame we aren't sending this song to the Eurovision Song Contest. Instead we're sending a Pimba song composed by Emanuel, Sang my an Agata Clone...
...Que na primeira vez que não faço resoluções de ano novo é que começo a cumprir resoluções de anos anteriores? Aqui fica mais uma das antigas que começo (finalmente!) a cumprir:
Há 21 dias fumei o meu último cigarro. Sem ajuda complementar de comprimidos e/ou adesivos passei de 30 a 0 cigarritos diários. Ao fim de 2-3 dias já notava as diferenças: Fome voraz (devido à ressaca, mas também às papilas gostativas desobstruidas ;) ), mais resistencia no ginásio, mais fôlego e ja n tenho dores no peito do tipo "vou cuspir um pulmão". O cheiro do tabaco tb me começou a fazer confusão.
3 semanas depois já aumentei de peso e tudo! (62 para 66kg).
Sei que esta é diferente das outras vezes em que deixei de fumar porque nas tentativas anteriores só não fumava ao fim de semana e ao fim de algum tempo achava que "se fumar só um cigarrinho não faz mal". Agora nem 1 cigarrinho nem meio cigarrinho nem uma passa!
Ontem foi o teste decisivo: aguentei a retro refresh session toda sem fumar :)
