Things I miss in a man

A warm hug A surprise A Smile A look A passionate kiss An unexpected call Several unexpected calls Making me laugh so hard because he jumps in bed at night time A day without worrying about the world outside A sign that he is interested in being with me A sight of him being delighted by my cooking or impressed by my sense of style A man bringing me roses Things I don't miss at all Coldness Lies Fights A man checking out other women A man not really getting me A man yelling at me A man trying to control me A man misleading me A man saying things he doesn't mean

Key West

My father's visit is coming to an end and yesterday I took him to the Keys and Key West. I got up at 5:15am and we got home at 11:14pm. I don't think I will ever drive to Key West and back on the same day again. The night before I had made gnocchis from scratch again (yes, I am addicted to potato pillows) and went to bed very late. Today I am at work at a different branch and I am fighting to be awake. There are very few people in the library. Tonight we have a small dinner party we have to go to in Coral Springs. But I digress. We had a great time in Key West. We visited the History Museum (the name escapes me now). We walked by the Hemingway House and we tried to visit the lighthouse but it was closed by the time we got there. We also went to the 90 Miles-From-Cuba landmark from which I took 4 pictures of my dad. He didn't smile in any of them. Ugh. I also bought a dress from Bali that I love. I could have bought at least four pairs of earrings I liked and another more ro...

Just got home

After a few glasses of wine and a lot of fun. When people are nice, it's easier to be happy. And if they happen to have a sweet lab named Amber around, it's all good.

My Fourth Lesson With Luna

She explored the idea of making mistakes while dancing. Using that energy to make something beautiful out of it. She was insisting on more precision, on being more daring, louder on my dancing. Speaking a language that the guy who is dancing with me will understand and appreciate.

Tears

We were in bed and I was trying very hard to hide my tears. I was seeing my life in snapshots. You were asking me questions and trying to understand me. I was embarassed to be sad. All and all, you are a respectable man. But there's this awckwardness between you and me and I haven't been able to shake that feeling out of me. All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. Anna Karenina, by Leo Tolstoy.

When you have loved too much

Cuando se ha querido mucho Tango 1945 Música: Federico Leone Letra: Enrique Dizeo Cigarrillo y mate, mate y cigarrillo, y la noche oscura castigándome. Y mi pensamiento en tu pensamiento, así estoy las horas recordándote. Cigarrillo y mate, mate y cigarrillo, y una pena grande, por lo que sufrí y por lo que sufro, cuando me pregunto dónde están tus besos, que será de mí. No entiendo cómo puede estar viviendo, será porque te estoy viendo mucho más cerca que nunca, a pesar de que no estás. Si vieras cuánto sufre mi alma entera al no tener quien me quiera en la vida nadie más. Cigarrillo y mate, mate y cigarrillo, y un hombre angustiado, sin saber qué hacer. Si seguir luchando o seguir tus pasos, porque tengo ganas de volverte a ver.
