El Punto Fijo (English)

10:30 AM. As almost every day, here I am, in front of my computer, listening music and writing. I cannot yet get rid of this weird feeling that sooner or later, I will have to go back to my daily routine (waking up, washing and stuff, breakfast and off to the office). The most difficult part is to slow down, and not to think about the gazillion things that I should / could do now.

Right now, I´m simply being here. Despite the fact that my house is a mess at these days, most of the time I´ve been playing with my Nintendo DS. I cannot remember the last time when I let myself into the fantasy world of a game, and I like it! I must say that I´m a little bit rusty solving its riddles and problems, but I´m enjoying it a lot so far.

Sunshine. It helps a lot. I like the light and the life associated with it. Of course I enjoy a rainy day or a cold winter afternoon, but at this time, I need to feel the sun shining all over me. It´s tempting to go flying but I don´t want to do anything because “I have to”. Fun is simply that: fun. Dr. Kawashima says when the brain detects this kind of behavior, its degeneration process speeds up, so I don´t want to rush things…

But, being a good and trusted geek, just purchased a brand new mobile, and I´m quite happy with it. It has a lot of features, and I suspect that soon I´ll find a button / menu that takes the garbage out and gives me a massage… It´s a year old model and the price was right. Paying to have the bleeding edge of technology has more drawbacks than advantages, and not doing it is almost always failure-proof and cheaper!

So what? This afternoon a movie and perhaps a stroll in the park… Next week I´m off to Granada, one of my “must-see-before-you-die” places. The trip was organized in no time, without chance to think about it much, as usual. I like to break my own paradigms, no matter how weird I´m feeling about it…
