So why don't I feel excited about it? We have a stupid saying here that goes: "God gives walnuts to those who have no teeth." I think I sometimes forget I can chew. Maybe it's this heat... We don't have windows at work! I'm actually longing for some rainy days in Scotland...
Me has dejado pensando en los bares que conozco de Portugal y en cómo eran. Recuerdo varios con ese encanto de los años 20, con sus sillones de piel originales, sus barras de madera maciza con marmol desgastado de tanto uso y vidrieras llenas de dulces.
Dejo que mi boca se llene de agua pensando en los cafés....
August boring? Barcelona is packed with tourists, you cannot even walk, puff! But yeah, most shops and bars are closed and we are all thinking about autumn. Crusades? Is this a plague?
Boring! Friends are all absent, scattered in different corners of the world... Half the LJ people is out too.
I've been avoiding Barcelona because of the crowds. I think I'll try it in Winter someday. We do have our Tourists invasion too, but they let us walk! Well, not in Algarve, though... but I never go there, so...
Crusades a plague? Highlander always says something like: "It's not my fault everyone started suddenly appreciating the subject (maybe it's Orlando Bloom's fault? - my words here) I was into smelly crusade Knights, bloody battles and merciless infidels way, way before this epic movies/books paranoia started.
And I can say I saw him read Amin Malouf's "The Crusades Through Arab Eyes" years ago.
