Desa Yuna Chica Aqui

[dotinthesky]

desayuno_ingles arrived safe and well. Her flight was four hours late, so my brother, the driver and I killed time enjoying Sao Paulo's chaotic traffic. She went a little yellow on the drive to the farm, from the road's twists and turns (but that didn't stop her from taking pictures of the passing scenario).

She's been introduced to the family, the guesthouse, the dogs, Brasilian soap operas, homemade cheese, homemade Jabuticaba liquor, Southern Hemisphere skies, cows, stray horses, homemade pasteis and Brasilian coffee.

There were seven parrots hanging out on the tree just outside our bedroom this afternoon.

We are going shoe shopping in a minute.

Thank you la_mascherina for the heart-shaped, chocolate-scented candle! We'll put it to good use. :-)

Yes, I'm having a great time... but, as for the book, you must have confused me with naturalbornkaos! He's got a novel coming out soon. ;-)

(although I did get a short-story published recently) :-D

[needler.livejournal.com]

You know that is obviously what I have done ,though prolly missread that about your story.
Gah see quick skim reading lj never pays off *grin*

I think you were temporarily transported into the future, where you saw a LJ entry of mine about my blockbuster novel that beat J.K. Rowling's sales. That's most definitely what happened.

Sssshhh I am trying not to let people know about these visions I get ;)

Who's the cute guy in your icon? ;)

There were seven parrots hanging out on the tree just outside our bedroom this afternoon.

1) I never realised parrots were game birds. Is there much meat on one?

2) I really don't think your avant-garde garden designs are going to catch on, dear.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

1) I don't know. We are not really interested in hunting them! (plus, it's illegal)

2) The avant-garde is never understood. I expect my designs to be all the rage once I'm dead.

Hey babe, remember me? I still read your LJ and its been a while but im moving to Sao Paulo in January. Small world I guess.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

Of course I remember you! I thought you had left LJ-land for good.

So tell me about your move to Sao Paulo. Will you be studying there, staying with someone or working?

have you heard of autoramas? i was listening to them the other day.

last i talked to you, you were heading to canada, i thought? what on earth are you doing with your time?

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

I never heard of Autoramas until yesterday, when I randomly found a CD of theirs at a shop, listened to it, then bought it! That's a strange coincidence that you mentioned them...

I'm still heading for Canada, but as a permanent move. Before I do that, I need to wait for my residency application to go through. In the meantime, I'm visiting friends and family over here. ;-)
